Kudos on reverse lever idea! Will dive into later today, being retired life is way busier than when working, just no time to get to anything important! When I purchased blower/3184 trade-in from local CC dealer, entire crank arm and support was donored to another CC. Luckily, I found entire set-up on eBay, seller stating from a 451 blower. Did parts list comparison, all but support was same part#'s, took chance, as photos on auction showed support was same as 353 parts illustration. I turned up spacers from specs shown in parts list, got correct length bolts. Of course, excited as we get, expecting to crank handle get a perfect working set-up, disappointment set-in real quick, like in a half crank. last evening, seller sent a message that he had loosened eye bolt support half down crank support arm, spinning nuts down to allow getting into shipping box. Not sure how much this could affect mesh of crank corkscrew to chute teeth, but we'll soon see, after a quick trip, to grab me and the dog breakfast at McDonalds! Stay tuned!!!
