If yours is self propelled and has a drive clutch you can let off of the drive power. What is happening is your snowblower is trying to eat more snow than it can in a reasonable amount of time.

If you are not under an excessive load, its usually a blockage in the carb or old fuel. try new gas from the gas station, replace your spark plug, if this doesn't work you may need to clean the carb.

This is the first year I have had a snowblower and have encountered this same problem. I can clear several inches of powder but packed/stepped on snow goes slowly and heavy snow in the street is impossible. From what I have found in my research is that a 2-Stage snowblower is required. Basically, more power is needed. I wonder if there was a way to tweak the clutch on the Auger/snow throwing mechanism. This would risk breaking that part of the snowblower or other drive components if you hit something hard, but it might be worth it if cautious.

If the popping is coming out the exhaust try replacing the spark plug.

Why wont it snow anymore on your minecraft?

It may be because you're not in the Taiga biome (or the Snow/Winter Biome) what you can do is make a snow golem by placing two snow blocks on each other and then put a pumpkin on top, they produce snow when they move around and they die in the desert biome. I made heaps of snow golems to guard my house in the forest biome and it turn it into the Taiga biome so my sugar cane farm kind of stuffed up.
