   We have an older Proforce blower that suddenly has lost about 50% of its blowing "force".
   
   Everything else appears to be operating as usual: engine throttles up and down fine, drive shaft was recently replaced with no problems, turbine/fan appears to spin same as before we lost blowing power...
   
   The shaft that is attached to the turbine has some play in it, but it is very little.
   
   Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

   Look in the throat of the turbine "inlet" side, sometimes this area will collect leaves and debris around the inside of the housing, restricting flow. We have two Buffalos here, and when they get plugged in the fall, I use one to back flush the other one out, then vica versa. Works really well.
