Well, I’m glad my brother has been as dedicated to taking in-progress photos as I have become! After emailing him about what happened to the snow blower, he was able to email me back a photo of exactly where the fuel line was supposed to go (something I could not really see without taking the cover off, but could find by feel). He told me I should be able to push it in, and confirmed that it was solidly in place, when he attached the fuel line to the carburetor. It seems to have vibrated itself out, which really shouldn’t happen.

Well, that almost worked
Today, I went out to use The Beast. We haven’t had more snow, but I wanted to clear some paths that were blown over, widen a parking area, and make the path to the fire pit wide enough for my husband’s walker. We’re planning to have a cookout on the weekend. All this, I could do with the little electric snow blower, but is just much easier with the big beast.
Plus, I just wanted to use it, now that it’s running again.
Just look at that beautiful, shiny new carburetor! :-D
Of course, things just had to go wrong, right? LOL

So Awesome!
Would you like to see my chainsaw collection?
Oh, what a day!
It turned out rather longer than expected – and that was knowing we had multiple trips to make!
This morning, we headed out to pick up a snow blower (yay!) from the place my brother bought our riding mower from, in a fairly large town about 2/3s of the way to the city.
Since we were going to a small engine place, I remembered to bring the chainsaw collection in the garage, to see if any of them are salvageable.
In the process, I found another chain saw!
