How to start my Ariens Snow Blower when the engine won't start?
- V
  vincentchristineAug 21, 2025
  If your Ariens Snow Blower engine won't start, there are several possible causes. First, make sure the engine key is in the run position. Next, check that the choke is on, and the fuel valve is open. Ensure the fuel tank isn't empty and that the engine is primed if it's cold (press the primer bulb three times). If the engine is flooded, turn the choke control knob to the off position and try starting again. If these steps don't work, the ignition switch starter circuit may not be functioning, or the engine itself could be faulty, requiring a visit to your dealer or an authorized service center. Also, check for disconnected spark plug wire or faulty spark plug. Another reason may be build up of dirt and residue around governor / carburetor.

Why is my Ariens 921051 Snow Blower not throwing snow effectively?
- C
  cmorrisAug 25, 2025
  If your Ariens Snow Blower isn't throwing snow well, several issues could be the cause. Ice or debris may be obstructing the auger, or the discharge chute might be clogged with snow. Stop the engine, remove the key, and wait for moving parts to stop before clearing any obstructions. The impeller could be frozen in place, requiring you to move the unit to a warm place to thaw it. Also, the auger drive belt might be slipping, worn, or damaged, and needs adjustment or replacement.

What should I check if my Ariens Snow Blower won't move forward or backward?
- G
  Gary HardyAug 27, 2025
  If your Ariens Snow Blower isn't moving forward or in reverse, it could be due to several reasons. The friction disc might be worn and need replacement. The traction drive cable may not be adjusted correctly, so remove slack from the cable. Another possibility is a malfunctioning traction belt, which would need repair or replacement. Lastly, the speed selector might not be adjusted correctly, and you should adjust the speed selector.

What to do if my Ariens Snow Blower unit does not throw snow or throws it poorly?
- U
  uthomasAug 29, 2025
  If your Ariens snow blower isn't throwing snow effectively, start by checking the shear bolts. Next, inspect the impeller for ice; if frozen, move the unit to a warm place to thaw. Also, check the auger for obstructions. Stop the engine, remove the key, and wait for moving parts to stop before removing any obstructions. Clear any snow clogging the discharge chute, remember to stop the engine, remove the key, wait for all moving parts to stop and for hot parts to cool, and use a clean-out tool, not your hands. A slipping, worn, or damaged auger drive belt may also be the cause.

  If your Ariens snow blower unit runs briefly then stops, it may be due to a build-up of fumes in the fuel tank creating too much pressure. Try slowly loosening the fuel tank cap.

What to do if my Ariens 921051 engine stops while running?
- J
  Jennifer AdamsSep 3, 2025
  If your Ariens Snow Blower engine stops, first check if the fuel tank is empty and refill if necessary. Ensure the fuel valve is open. Look for any obstructions in the auger or impeller, and if present, stop the engine, remove the key, wait for all moving parts to stop, and then remove the obstruction before restarting. Also, check for contaminated fuel and replace it with clean fuel. A faulty or dirty spark plug could also be the culprit, so replace or clean it. Lastly, a blocked fuel cap vent can cause the engine to stop, so try installing a new fuel cap.

Why does my Ariens 921051 Snow Blower engine start hard or run poorly?
- L
  lpearsonSep 5, 2025
  If your Ariens Snow Blower engine starts hard or runs poorly, the fuel mixture may be too rich, so turn the choke control knob to the off position. Another cause could be a faulty, fouled, or incorrectly gapped spark plug; clean and correctly set the spark plug gap. Also, the fuel cap vent might be blocked, in which case you should install a new fuel cap.

Why does my Ariens 921051 Snow Blower pull to one side?
- J
  Jasmine NguyenSep 6, 2025
  If your Ariens Snow Blower pulls to the left or right, the skid shoes and scraper blade likely need adjustment. Adjust both the skid shoes and the scraper blade.
