If the snow blower isn’t starting due to a gummed up carburetor or other gum/varnish issues in the fuel system, Sea Foam will help clean it up and get it running again. Most small engine problems are caused by gum and varnish.
I’d get a can of Sea Foam High Mileage or Sea Foam Motor treatment and follow the instructions below:
- remove the old fuel from the tank, then drain the fuel from the carburetor (usually a screw)
- add a cleaning dosage of Sea Foam to an empty tank followed by a small amount of fresh fuel
- with Sea Foam mixed in the tank fuel, rope pull/crank or press your primer bulb 3 or 4 times to draw the fresh fuel and Sea Foam into the carburetor
- then let the engine sit overnight to allow the Sea Foam to dissolve any fuel residues from the carburetor (older or excessive gum/varnish may need to soak two to three days)
Once the engine starts, the Sea Foam in the fuel will continue to clean and help restore lost engine performance.
