Question about Snowblowers
03/19/11 at 09:45:03
I changed the oil in my snowblower and mistakenly allowed less than a 1/4 teaspoon of gas to mix with 26oz of oil in the process . Is that going to be a problem when I start it ,or is it little enough that it doesn't matter? Thanks!

Just guessing, but I think if you just leave the filler cap off for a day or so, it will evaporate out.
See if others agree, before you take what I think as gospel...

If Serowbot says it ,it must be true.
If it were me I would just leave it.

-makes the oil thinner- less viscosity
I hate changing oil- messy and gives me a headache when I get it on my hands now- years ago not a problem - maybe all of that gas I've swallowed siphoning from one car to another!

Pssst!... I have it on good authority that,... people that work at Best Buy are... (whisper) ...aliens!....
...
PS,... if you haven't started your snowblower yet,... the gas has probably evaporated...

Serowbot ,I left the filler cap off for a couple of days . I think that was a good idea . I didn't have good luck tho with the pcv valve on my car . Somehow pulling the old one out ,I messed up something electrical ,and now the car is at the mechanics . Oh well.

I've rebuild a couple of snow blowers and have an Antique Rupp Roadster mini-bike that has a snowblower motor on it.
You'll be fine.
