Ariens 8526 snowblower over speed
Hi,
I was prepping my 4 year old snowblower for the winter by changing the engine oil, refilling with gas, and starting it. When I started it, the engine seemed to be running way too fast, to the point where I was worried the engine would destroy itself. The throttle control lever has no effect on engine speed until it is on minimum speed when the engine almost stalls. Any ideas?
