Thought I'd ask it here since I'm a little bewildered. My snowblower started and then as soon as the auger started working and blowing snow it stopped working. It would not start again. When I checked the oil it was the color of coffee mixed with cream or maybe like a lightly color peanut butter.
Now I've read online and seen in person what antifreeze does to oil however this snowblower doesn't have antifreeze.
Wondering what would cause the oil change color so quickly after an oil change. I'm guessing this is the reason that the engine isn't staying on. I change the carburetor out for a new one. Next will be to test the pressure
Chocolate milk or cream color is water mixed with oil.
An emulsion, specifically. It's typical of engines that sit and then don't run long enough to evaporate all the water that condenses inside the block. Unless there's so much water that it has compromised the oil films keeping the hard parts separated, it's not your problem. Carburetion is a more likely cause.
yup. drain fuel and oil, replace.
Thanks guys will do just that.
