Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Snowblower cant handle modest snow, new spark, snow blower


Question
Hello -
  I have a problem with my snowblower with how it runs when it engages snow. The engine runs fine at low idle and at high speed when not engaged with snow. The minute I try to throw a modest amount of snow , the engine runs down and almost dies. I put a new spark plug but I am guessing maybe the condensor might be worn out. This snow blower is about 15 years old. Any help would be much appreciated ...

Thanks,
Stu

like anything else ,?  old  not enough horse power to do???  may try  adjusting a little more fuel..... but you will only get  a certain amount of horse power out of something rated .
take it alittle slower ?????? or shovel!!   sorry

stuart >>   yes you can let me know at  remicadekid@yahoo.com  just  mention  who and what its about.  sorry i couldnt be of more help.   if its wet snow your trying to move,  even the best will have troubble.
if a snow blower is in the smaller range?  it will be harder,  but they all have a problem  from time to time.
