The engine wont fire at all. Anyone have any suggestions.I have choked it, turned choke off emptied gas out and bought brand new. Thrower is 1 year old. I only used it once last year and it started fine. I replaced spark plug. There is no fuel shut off valve.

go to the auto shop and get some starter fluid. It helps with all of the things that stop starting. It may not fix the whole prob, but if its something pretty serious (like above), it will help it start when you go to finally turn it over. Just spray a little in the air intake at a time.

Use a 5W-30 oil in it. Mines an 8 HP tecumseh and thats what I use. Straight 30 is too heavy of an oil for the cold weather a snow blower is used in.

From what I read, you left last year's gas in the tank. Remove the bowl from the carburetor and clean it. Let a small amount of fresh gas run through the hose and out of the carb...with the bowl off. Put the bowl back on and give it a try.

rust in the valves will keep them from moving. Remove the spark plug, spray WD40 into the engine turn it over spray again, turn it over again. Replace the plug, Spray starting fluid into the carb. And start and blow snow.
