get your snowblower's model # and call your local lawnmower repair shop.
Troy: First of all, it's good to see progress on your layout. Concerning the part, I could probably get it direct from Briggs and Stratton, as I still have the manual. If Sears Parts is still around I could check there also, or Amazon. fact is when we get snow around here it's usually enough to overwhelm my blower. My machine also doesn't do well with wet snows, like we had yesterday. Realistically, I'm looking for a newer bigger one.
The two local shops, that I was aware of both shut down and retired to Florida. Local small business repair shops usually make buying new a bargain. Gouge your customers...it's a Jersey thing.
While I am not an anti-vaxxer, I only got tetanus and pneumonia vaccines before this covid mess. No flu or shingles.
Best wishes for your wife's health.
Willie: Generally, I approach all preventative medicine with an open mind. Having said that, I had both Pneumonia Vaccines, six months after the newest, I came down with pneumonia...I have also had a chronic cough ever since the onset in 2018. Conrail used to incorporate Tetanus boosters with each annual physical so the last I had was 1997. I skipped the flu shot, last year, but resumed this year. Usually, I have a mild reaction. Based on what happened to my wife, Ain't no way I getting the shingles vaccine. I really plan on getting the Covid Vaccine once the State or County deems it appropriate to give me an appointment, or when the retail pharmacies start offering Covid shots like they do everything else...which ever opportunity comes first. FWIW, last Friday, the NY Times, did a story on how the "Progressive States", are failing miserably when it came to mass inoculation of Covid magazines...never thought I would see that in the Times...
I'm kind of crabby with all that's going on in our orbit right now. Won't bore y'all with the details, but a year of sequestration, and covid related lame excuses and bulls**t are beginning to take their toll. Wife whent to a Gastroenterologist on Friday, preregistering on line, in advance of the appointment. Receptionist, handed her the same questionnaire, and a pen...when the wife told her she had preregistered, the receptionist told her she had to fill it out again. note...it contained information, they could only have because the wife filled it out the first time...Then she gets in to see the physician, (she was there because of medication induced Fatty Liver Disease, and Upper GI irritation), and the first thing the guy wanted to do was schedule her for a colonoscopy...These doctors listen well, eh? Just an example of what I'm talking about...
