Hi Everybody,
It looks like my auger is leaking from the tank seal. The auger's only 3 years old and is always stored inside in the heat.

Any ideas? The hoses all look good.

Thanks,
Rick

Hi Joe,
It's a 2010 Jiffy Model 30XT. I'm not sure who makes the engine (it's not the Tecumseh, I don't think). I think it's a 2 HP.
Thanks,

I beleave those are made in china ( the engine)( I know they are not Robin engines) .. I dont have any experience with them... I stock tons of parts for the 2 hp and 3 hp techumseh engines and some Briggs stuff... but haven't had to work on those "china dolls" as of yet... I've worked on the new style transmissions ( plastic housing) but not on the engines... Ill ask around and see if I can find anything out...
