Hi, I have a problem with the throttle on my new Super C. I am not sure if it is with the governor or with the control lever/arm linkage. The idle is high when the control lever is at its lowest setting. I can gently push the arm with my finger at the governor and the idle drops dramatically. I can do the same thing at the carburetor and push the governor connecting rod to the idle stop with light finger pressure. I have not noticed any surging, and all of the stops seem to be properly set – I just can’t get to a low idle using the control lever. The other thing I noticed is that I can’t get the control lever to reach the maximum setting, it only reaches about 3/4s of the way until I feel a lot of pressure on the lever. Otherwise the lever seems to be working ok.
Is the problem in the travel linkage coming from the control lever, or something (the governor?) not taking up the slack when the throttle is in the lowest setting. Any advice in troubleshooting this is appreciated!
