Leaf Blower Engine started to smoke

Asked Aug 5, 2006, 11:05 AM — 1 Answer
My electric powered leaf blower started to slow down and when I unplugged it, it started to smoke through the air vents. Is the engine shot and I need a new one, or should I attempt opening it up and "taking a look?"
Thanks !
Helen
