Any one have a Lucke manufacturing green & black colored, rear mount 8' snow blower? They were made in Minot, ND. in 60's & 70's. They also made sunflower pans. I bought a used one several years ago. It is a single stage blower, has 4 cups, mounted on the auger. The cups throw the snow up through the spout. The blower will eat a lot of snow but not throw it very far. My guess is that the 4 cups are worn down and don't grab snow like they did when new. Any ideas to improve the machine or experience with it would be helpful. I have extended the spout and that helps but I kept adding length to the spout and the snow would fall back down spout when I quit blowing and plug the spout. Goggle Lucke manufacturing to see pictures. Web site says the company is still in business but I live in Minot area and have not seen any activity at plant for years. Thanks Dan S
