Having not owned a leaf blower ONLY tool, I couldn't tell you. I guess you'll know once you get it apart.
Please keep us updated.
This is just a leaf blower. It does have a vacuum attachment but that is just a hose that connects to the air intake.. I'll let you know what I find. I am suspecting a seized clutch or blower mechanism since water did pour from the nozzle when I tipped it over This is a good lesson in why it pays to take care of tools and why tools should not be left out in the rain.
