How to fix your Poulan gas snowblower when its engine runs rough
If your engine is running rough, a problem with the carburetor is a likely cause. Rebuild or replace the carburetor to fix a fuel delivery problem. A clogged fuel filter will also prevent the engine from getting fuel, causing the engine to sputter or run rough. Check the fuel filter and replace it if clogged. A dirty spark plug won't ignite the fuel consistently, causing the engine to miss and sputter. Check the spark plug and replace it if necessary. Incorrect valve lash could cause the engine to run rough so check and adjust the valve lash. Check the engine sump gasket because a leaking gasket can cause low compression and a rough running engine. A thorough snowblower tune-up can also help the engine run smoothly.
How to fix your Poulan gas snowblower when its chute won't turn
Clear the snowblower chute if snow build-up prevents the chute from turning. Inspect the drive mechanism of the chute direction system and remove any foreign objects caught in the drive system.
If the drive system is clear, adjust the cable, shaft or gears that move the chute. Replace the chute control box or 4-way chute control assembly if those components won't turn the chute. Our video on how to troubleshoot snowblower chute problems also has tips to help fix the problem.
