Troubleshooting your Agri-Fab gas snowblower when it won't self propel

Inspect the drive clutch cable and adjust if it's loose. Check the drive belt for excessive wear and replace it if necessary. Reinstall the drive belt if it slipped off a pulley. A worn friction disc won't propel the snowblower so check the friction disc and replace it if it's worn.

The snowblower also won't move with the auger housing or scraper blade scraping the ground. Tighten the scraper blade if it's loose and replace it if damaged. Adjust or replace the skid shoes to lift the auger housing to the proper height. Check the tires and rims and replace a rim if it doesn't spin smoothly on the axle. Tune up the engine if it runs rough and doesn't have enough power to propel the snowblower.

Troubleshooting tips for your Agri-Fab gas snowblower when it won't stay running

If your engine only runs for a few seconds and then shuts off, you could have a gummed-up carburetor. The engine probably starts because gas enters the cylinder when you press the primer bulb. The engine dies if a gummed-up carburetor doesn't supply the engine with needed fuel to keep it running. Rebuild or replace the carburetor if the engine dies soon after start-up. A carburetor rebuild kit has the seals, gaskets and other parts you need to rebuild the carburetor. Use the carburetor rebuild kit for the carburetor on your engine. Sometimes, it's easier to replace the entire carburetor rather than rebuilding it.
