Hey all, My 1250 has the screw vent filler cap. When in use it slowly screws itself closed. I've gotten ok at standing up over the wheel, opening the hood, and screwing open the vent when I feel it starting to starve. I'm wondering, does anyone else have this problem? I think that when the vent is fully open and the hood is latched it just touches the underside of the hood. I almost never latch the hood in use. If it's at low idle it will sometimes keep running but dies if I open the throttle at all. Should I replace the cap or does anyone one have a better (read free)solution?

I am putting a QA36 snow blower back together. I took pictures of everything before disassembly, except for one place.
I bought new needle bearings for the shaft through the small sprocket and put them in the housing. They are flush with the out side edges, but not the inner edges. Does it make a difference? Should the bearings be centered? I do have the grease hole lined up with the zerk. If I move the bearing, it may not line up any more.

Walter - Way down the page and it's 4 mounts under the engine.
Thanks Charlie. Interestingly my 1450 has the Gas gauge cap, but my parts 1450 also has the screw vent. I'm planning to sell the 1250 this spring so I really don't want to put any more money into it.
Oh well the 129 has neither type cap, it just needs a head gasket at the moment.
