The chassis was a different story, like my Craftsman mower, always some small thing that stopped me dead, but never the engine.
Between the Craftsman snowthrower and the mower, I have spent countless hours replacing cables, pins, bearings, etc. Never any serious expense, just annoying constant little things failing.

In 13 years with a Craftsman tractor and snowblower, I've replaced exactly ONE shear pin and two or three sets of mower blades. That's it. Synthetic oil change at the end of the season, gas with Sta-bil, a quick cleaning of the air filter, and a turn of the key/pull of the string.
In fact, it's probably bad that I've not changed a single plug, fuel filter, belt, etc. I've not even had to adjust the deck or glide thingies on the blower!
