@@5beesgarage I picked up a 21" 212cc powersmart on black Friday for $200 so I was looking at single stage blowers to get an idea what to expect. I had been watching for a used 2 stroke to fix up but no luck.
"So picked up the SS Titanic from someome on Craigslist. They say it won't float and it wont start. Let's pop it open and put some new gaskets in it. Maybe it'll come back up"
It does work and a couple yrs ago when I was still disabled it started right up after sitting for yrs.no such luck now though,fuel in the carb and finally dry rotted the fuel line so I ordered a carb kit but haven’t gotten to it yet.after being down a long time I’m way behind but I know it runs and has new oil so soon as I get to it all I’ll need is snow but I’m not dumb enough to pray for it!
Had a neighbor who worked on lawn mowers who wanted me to do a dab of welding for him and he gave me one just like yours that’s in good shape and runs.need to change the oil and make a crank handle for the soot and I’m good to go but I was going to do the welding for free.his idea
Silly question i recently got a pretty beat up one like this and need to get replacement wheels, do you know what size are the wheels? Also how do you change the oil?
II am not sure of the wheels size but if you take the Craftsman model number and google it you should be able to find a parts diagram with the part number of the wheels listed. This unit is a 4 cycle and requires the lower rear cover be removed to change the oil. If yours is a 2 cycle it uses oil/gas mix.
