I have a snow blower with a Tecumseh 8.5 hp, Model LH318SA engine. I beleive it also has a series 8 carb. Its only 3 years old. Last year I had some problems with it surging and dieing at low RPM settings. It ran pretty good but backfired some at full throttle. This year running it for the first time it is surging at all power settings. This video shows how to change the oil in the Tecumseh 8-10hp flathead horizontal shaft engines. Items you need: Vice Grips 5/8' Box wrench Due to factors beyond the control of Alex S 'Multikhaz.
