I'm just wondering if running a snow blower in the summer would harm the
engine because of insufficient cooling? It seems to me that you have
much the same kind of Tecumseh or Briggs & Stratton engine on a snow
blower as you do on a rototiller.

Some don't have an air filter, because the lawn dirt
is (in theory) under snow. I know mine does not
have air cleaner. So, dirt in the air is a concern.
Virtually ALL snow blower engines run without air filters.
