Where can I get parts for a KAAZ DZ500 Auger?

Sorry but we do not have parts here or anyway to look them up for you.

Hello! You may have already gotten your new auger housing, but here is a link for our site where a new auger housing is available! I checked to make sure that this was the correct part for your model!

Snapper AUGER HOUSING ASMY Part 7052968YP

Happy Snow Blowing!

With car in drive/reverse and foot hard on brake if the engine moves when gas pedal is depressed and quickly released in both D&R, then that mount/mounts is defective...

Engine mount should be replaced if:

1) The hard rubber surface is covered with heat check cracks.

2) The rubber is separated from the metal plate of the engine mount.

3) The rubber is split through the center of the engine mount



The transmission case will crack or break if either engine mounts or transmission rear mount is broken...Here is a GM Service bulletin addressing the issue:

#02-07-30-024B



The transmission mount (see drawing) test:

>Raise and support the vehicle

>Raise the transmission/transaxle in order to remove the weight from the transmission/transaxle mount and create slight tension in the rubber.

Replace trans. mount if anyone of the three conditions listed above exist...saailer

Before I begin, this is a fairly involved process so if you dont have some mechanical experience you may want to pass it off.
First you have to split the snow blower so remove the bolts on the side of the case just behind the auger case.


The three bolts just to the right of the tire must come off. Then the case will split apart. Stand the engine section against a table or something.
Tip the auger section up on its end so the pulley is facing up. you must remove the pulley by loosening the set screw or bolt on the shaft. This can be very difficult due to rust.


After you get the pulley off you will need to remove the auger assembly from the casing. You will first remove the bolts/nuts that hold the ends of the auger shaft to the side of the case. When those are off you will pull the auger shaft/gear case assembly out of the case. It will look something like this...




Once that is out, you will be able to get to the impeller bolts or pins. If you have bolts simply remove the bolts and slide the impeller off the shaft. Again, this may be difficult due to rust and/or wearing of the shaft under the impeller. If you have pins, the pins will have to be pushed through with a hammer and drift pin smaller than the pins themselves. Then you can purchase new pins. These can be purchased at a local hardware store.



Once you replace the pins, put the machine back together.

Depending on where the crack is, would change my best answer. The Salvage yards are full of available parts for this engine. Lincoln changed to a composite manifold from metal to save weight and prevent soot buildup.

Unlike old models of engines, most of the Fomoco engines get water directly into the heads or block and not the intake manifold. So you are talking about airflow and vacuum leaks.

If the crack is not on a mounting flange and is accessible, there are many high quality chemical glues which can do the job. Take sandpaper and scour the surface before applying the glue. There are even metal glues.

Salvage parts can be found at Carparts.com or your local salvage yard.

Please rate my info.

u will need a floor jack, block of wood, assorted tools, and a torque wrench Turn off the engine and disconnect the negative battery cable. Gain full access to the engine mount. Support the engine oil pan using a jack and a block of wood. Remove the bolt that holds the engine mount to the frame. Lift the engine and mount off of the frame using the jack. Once raised, remove the bolt that holds the mount to the engine. Remove the engine mount.
Attach the new engine mount to the engine with the original bolt. Lower the engine. Attach the engine mount to the frame. Tighten all mounting bolts to the manufacturer's specifications. Reconnect any components that may have been removed. Test drive the vehicle to verify the repair.

Hello,

Which belt? You are referring to the auger drive right? The self propell uses a friction disc drive.

The auger drive has two belts, and in order to replace them you need to seperate the auger from the engine (split) the blower.

Happy days.

Should be as "simple" as putting a wooden block under the oil pan and slightly jacking up the engine, to releave weight from the mounts. Then remove bolts and remove the mount.

I have two vehicles that are 1993. When they get that old, rubber starts to dry rot. I have had the same problem on my 1993 Dodge Intrepid. My problem lies in the motor mounts and the transmission mounts. After replacing these items, it runs like a champ.

You can visually determine if you motor mounts are dry rotted. Look under the hood and, with a flashlight, look on either side of the motor. There should be a crossmember running parallel to the axles. On this crossmember will be two (one on either side) large rubber pieces sitting inside a metal holder. These are your motor mounts. If they are cracked and split, they need replacing. Also, if you can run your fingers across one and your fingers turn black, it is not oil... it's rubber powder.

Conclusion: If your motor mounts are dry and cracked, then so are your transmission mounts. You'll want to have them replaced by a professional. If installed by a novice or my a "Mom & Pop" garage, your new mounts may split under stress caused by improper installation... a headache you do not want.

Good Luck!

This is a common problem with this GE and "lookalike" models. The dispensers first break the front plastic drum that holds to the auger and eventually cracks the rear circular sleeve as well. Pieces from the drum usually fall off and are even dispensed with ice ... eventually the drum is damaged enough that the auger no longer operates. The motors on these units, however, continue to operate.

You can receive the replacement parts needed to make the ice maker auger operate again by visiting the GE parts website. A usual repair will run $40-60. Unfortunately, the design of the replacement drum has not changed, so be prepared for this to happen again.

Best of Luck.
