Just one more time pushing that snow blower before you can put it away for next year. Snow is coming to the upper Midwest and Northeastern United States, and it will definitely be enough to justify breaking out the snow blower one last time.
However, that looks to be the last big snowfall of the season. So you'll likely be interested in how you can go about properly storing your snow blower through the summer. You definitely don't want to just push it to the back of the garage and forget about it.
Below is a list of things you should do to ensure an easier start next winter:
1. Drain the Fuel - Use a gas can to store it over the winter with some fuel stabilizer. If you don't want to, at least add fuel stabilizer to the tank.
2. Remove the Spark Plug - Follow the spark plug wire to find where it's attached, then remove it with the appropriate sized socket wrench. Store it in a clean dry place where it wont get lost.
3. Consider pouring a small amount of oil onto the pistons through the spark plug hole to prevent rusting or corroding of engine parts.
4. Cover it with a snow blower cover to make sure it stays clean and protected.
