Hi everyone,
I have been thinking about this topic and doing some YT research. Seems like most people are happy with the 212cc Predator engine for the 24inch Ariens. However, the only downside I am aware of is the exposed linkages, which I understand can impact performance if snow gets on top of the engine and freezes. I do get windy conditions in my area when I use my machine so I need to take this into account.
Thoughts? It seems the benefits (cost, performance, possibly simpler maintenance) are there for pursuing this option. However, I do not want to go through with the project only to find the above-mentioned issue to render the machine suspect when needed.
