Surging motor?

My 8 HP motor on my snow blower surges. How can this be fixed?

Usually, that's a sign of a lean few mixture. If there s a moxture screw, back it out 1/2 turn. If not (and assuming you have draind the float chamber to ensure there's no water in there), you will need to strip and clean the carb.
