Q: Hi Kriss,
I been searching for a snowblower over the net and comparing which is the best but the end I found alot of good reviews of these Ariens brands. Not only that I aiming for good engine as well. I can see some of the Ariens model have the Subaru engine so I wonder does this Sno-Tek (24") 208cc Two-Stage Snow Blower have the Subaru on it? I would definitly buying if is does in this model.
Thanks by Ying Lee from Minnesota on July 13, 2011
A: This snow blower would not use the Subaru engine. Ariens is no longer using the Subaru engine at this time or on this years models. The Sno-Tek snow blower is going to use a LCT engine. This is a Chinese engine a good majority of companies have been using for a few years now. At this time Briggs and Stratton is probably going to be about your best option for a good solid engine. You would find this on a wide variety of snow blowers, from Ariens, Toro, Snapper, Simplicity and so on.
Thanks,

Ariens performance
The Ariens is far superior to the Toro that it replaced. In wet or dry snow, it is easy to start manually, and I haven't even tried the electric start yet. My only suggestion for improvement would be a faster reverse gear.

The roller skids do not provide adequate ground clearance over other than paved surfaces. I get about 1/2 inch - same as the skids I replaced after doing about $500 worth of glass damage to my wife's car with crushed stone from my driveway. They could have easily added another inch of clearance. I'm disappointed.
SBD RESPONDS: Skids are not designed to give additional ground clearance, they are designed to prevent wear and tear on the snowblower auger and housing. In the case of roller skids, they are designed to improve maneuverability and protect against scraping pavement, concrete or pavers. If you use the Roller Skid Universal Adapter Brackets you can adjust the Roller-Skids downward. Problem solved!! For whatever reason, Ariens located their mounting holes on the Sno-Tek Series 2” above the bottom edge of the auger box. Because of this the Roller-Skids just barely touch the ground.

Used in 10"
I bought this unit last year and used in snow up to 10" and no problems. Was so easy actually ended up doing about ten of my neighbors as well. Very good unit for the price.

Incredible Value
I researched this model for several weeks before purchasing. It seems Ariens uses their gearbox and drive system from the orange 20 inch model, an older design of auger and housing, a plastic chute, Chinese tires and engine and omits the headlight. Then they sell this model at about half what the orange models sell for.
I have found the LCT engine to be reliable and easy starting and extremely fuel efficient. It used about half a tank over three hours of hard use.
The rest of the unit is also well built. It can bust through the icy end of driveway mess with ease. I was chewing through snow up to the top of the intake with ease in low gear, blowing it at least 30 feet away. This thing ran circles around my neighbors Simplicity's and MTD's during last years blizzards.
The only thing I would change is to add slightly larger tires...The standard ones function fine, they just look way too small.

Tackling Snow 12+ Inches or More
Ordered from Snow Blowers Direct at exceptionally good price. Easy ordering. They kept me informed at each step of the process. The product arrived quickly. It is living up to its reputation. I highly recommend Snow Blowers Direct and this particular product.
I live in eastern WA and this snow thrower makes short work of snow over 12 inches deep.

Happy With Sno-Tek
I've had a Sno-Tek snow blower before. It was a very good machine and very easy to operate. I have been very happy with it.
Unfortunately, I never checked the oil and damaged the engine. I'm buying another one and I recommend this product to anyone.
