Hello all,

I have Ariens Snow Blower with 5 hp Tecumseh engine, the Model # is H50 65226H. On the second time using teh machine this winter and while under a heavy load, I noticed oil spewing down the engine and onto the deck of the snowblower. I'm assuming I blew a gasket, can anyone confirm or deny? Or help advise where the gasket would be?

-Thanks Dave

make sure you didn't overfill it, cause if you did, it would spew from the breather
