.So I get my butt out of bed 45 min early so I could grab some sandpaper out of my shop and have plenty of time to get to the shop. I let the dog out on his cable and after 5 min I go to let him in and part of the cable is there but no dog, now it's cold and windy so the new snow is blowing all over. I get in my truck so I can cruse the neighborhood looking for the little bastard and I see him in the back of my yard so I shut the truck off and go to get him. He see's me running and then it's game on for him he takes off running. I get back in the truck and now the batt has a bad connection and wont start. When I parked it I left it in about 10" of snow and as I get in and out trying to move the batt terminal my boots are filling with snow. By this time one of the neighbors see's me trying to catch the dog and lets his dog out. This helped 'cuse scratch wanted to play more than he care about being cought.
So 1 hour later I get scratch back in the house and call the boss to let him know I'm running late. Once I get to work I grab the shovel and get all the sidewalks done and go inside. Once I get in the parts guy asks for my help, I go up front and see water on the floor. One of the hoses sprung a leak in the can so I get to fix it.
The rest of the day at work went ok but I knew I had to come home and get the snowblower out and clean the driveway. I went and worked on my boat after work for 1 hour and came home to blow snow. Well A smart guy would have made sure the blower was running in the fall but I have been busy with the viper. Yep the dang thing wouldn't start and there is a huge drift in front of the shop so I didn't want to drag it in there. I pulled the float bowl off and found some ice in there so I pull it off and clean the carb in my kitchen. It started but wouldn't run past about 1500 rpm. I spent about 1.5 hors trying to get it running but no luck.
I just said screw it and came in the house.
Thats what I did.
