[quote="CVPost-Steve@Advance"](quoted from post at 08:18:59 03/21/17) Welcome Bernie!
Wouldn't know where to begin finding an original carb, probably not going to happen.
I would do some investigating on the existing linkage.
Make sure the governor is working.
You can disconnect the linkage, control the RPM by hand and watch the governor work. Theory is, the harder the throttle speed spring pulls, the faster the engine runs. It's the governors job to control the speed. The spring pulls the throttle open, the governor pushes it closed. A balancing act between the 2 forces.
With the governor link disconnected, play with the RPM, watch and feel the travel of the governor link. You want the governor to be able to push the throttle closed against the idle stop, but still allow the throttle to fully open.
Once you determine the governor is working, and know the travel length, then you can fabricate a linkage that is comparable.[/quote
