Fuel Gas Primer
Why won't my Tecumseh 11HP snowblower engine start? Should I rebuild the carb?
Bought it last year. Had some stale gas near the end of the year, but I drained and put in fresh and it ran fine for a couple more storms. I changed the oil, drained the gas, and put it away for summer.
Now first try of the year it won't fire. Cub Cadet SWE528 with Tecumseh OH318SA engine.
I fear it's a carburetor issue. There is a twist, it looks like a mouse family made a nest up under the cover. I'm worried they may have chewed through something.
Things I know so far:
There is spark. The engine will run if I keep giving it starter fluid(I know, bad stuff).
There is no fuel shutoff valve on this particular engine and the gas cap has no effect.
Fuel flow is good up to the carb.
No fuel seems to make it into the carb though.
Primer is not spraying any gas. It does, however, have good pressure at the hose end at the carb. This has me really confused. Doesn't it take the gas from further upstream?
So is it a stuck float valve, or am I missing something?
Thx
Yes that is exactly what you have....a gummed up carburetor....You can probably get by with cleaning it but it must be removed and taken apart....if you are not comfortable doing this,take it to a reputable shop....When you get it back ad a gasoline additive called STABIL to your fuel cans and put it in everything that runs on gas and cranks them up and let them run for 5-10 minutes....this stuff will keep gasoline good for between 1&2 years....gas today starts going bad after 30 to 60 days...Good Luck

The Production of Ethanol
Fuel prices are always a concern. This has led to increasing interest in alternative energy such as wind, solar and biofuels.
Even though some consider biofuel to be something new, biofuels have actually been produced by humans for many thousands of years. This is because biofuels are so easy to make. It's possible to produce biofuels from any vegetable that contains a significant amount of sugar, or contains ingredients that are convertible into sugar, such as starch and cellulose. You could also create sugar from the starch in corn, however it will take longer in converting the starch.
If you ever wanted to know how biofuels are created, here's a simple rundown:
1) Take your grain, for example corn or wheat, and grind it down until the starch is exposed.
2) Mix all of this with water.
3) Take this mass and cook it briefly, adding the enzymes that will convert the starch into sugar. This is a process known as hydrolysis.
4) Throw in some yeast, which will cause the fermentation you need to manufacture ethanol.
5) Separate the ethanol from the other materials with distillation.
And then you're done! There are many websites currently on the internet that show ways to produce ethanol at home, and these are in fact accurate. Though it's a lot of work to do this, and it's not very cost or time effective.
There is currently a great amount of research going on into the production methods of biofuels. There is research underway at the moment to try and find ways to produce ethanol from less costly sources than grains, namely the cellulose that's found within these grains. However, this is not easy. There are many more complex procedures that have to take place involving pretreatment and hydrolysis, before the fermentation required can occur. One of the major benefits of using different sources for the production of biofuels will be that food sources are not overly used, causing hunger problems in areas that may be susceptible to this.
Fermentation is caused by the organism known as yeast. Yeast is commonly known as a major ingredient in bread, it's the ingredient that causes the bread to rise. This rising is caused by carbon dioxide gas. Now, yeast is an anaerobic organism, which means it can survive without oxygen. Yeast lives on sugar, same as humans, but it's unable to consume all of the energy retained in the sugar. While energy is being absorbed and sugar partially digested by the yeast, the sugar is converted into both carbon dioxide and ethanol.
Unfortunately, we can't just go ahead and make ethanol with our bread at home. We don't have enough sugar to make a significant amount. Countries like Brazil, however, have been using biofuels for a long time due to their high production rates of sugar cane.
Some commercial ethanol is produced from a byproduct of gasoline, but most comes from yeast. Corn is far more plentiful in America then sugar cane, so this is why it's most often used, despite the conversion process being more complex and costly.
