  If your Briggs & Stratton Snow Blower doesn't start, several factors could be the cause. First, ensure the fuel shut-off valve is in the OPEN position and the safety ignition key is properly inserted. Check if the fuel tank is empty and fill it with fresh, clean gasoline if needed. Make sure the throttle is in the FAST position and the choke is in the FULL position. If it still doesn't start, prime the engine as instructed in the Operation section of the manual. If the engine is flooded, wait a few minutes before attempting to restart it, and avoid priming. Inspect the spark plug wire to ensure it's connected and replace the spark plug if it's bad. Stale fuel or water in the fuel tank can also prevent starting, so empty the fuel tank and carburetor, then refill with fresh, clean gasoline.

  Loss of power in your Briggs & Stratton Snow Blower can occur due to several reasons. Ensure the spark plug wire is securely connected. If you're throwing too much snow, reduce your speed and the width of your path. Check the fuel tank cap and clear any ice or snow that may be covering it. A dirty or clogged muffler can also cause power loss, so clean or replace it.
