Impressed with Loncin snowblower engines

[NY.chips]

I recalled an experience I want to share, I was helping my uncle prep for winter up in Maine last year, and he pulls out his then brand new Ariens Deluxe 28 snowblower, and okay wasn't exactly thrilling stuff until... I spotted the engine branding and it was Loncin, I was surprised I had to double check, yep our Loncin....on a snowblower....sold under one of the biggest names in residential power equipment. At first I thought it was some rebranded OEM thing, but nope, it's Loncin built, straight up

So of course, I got curious and started it cold (about -8°C), it fired right up without hesitation and ran smooth, this was during a wet, heavy snow dump that would've stalled a weaker engine and I just stood there watching this engine eat through snow like it was nothing, thinking… man, people really underestimate Loncin

Yep, Loncin has really made a name for itself lately. Your first hand experience about that snowblower really highlights just how much they've accomplished

I was surprised to see a Loncin engine on an Ariens Deluxe 28 snowblower , thought it was just a rebrand at first. But in -8 degrees C, it fired right up and chewed through heavy wet snow without a problem, made me realize Loncin engines are way more capable than most people give them credit for.
