Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): 8HP B/S Choke Linkgae issue, throttle linkage, question pool
QuestionI have a R72 w/ a Briggs 8HP model number 190707, type 5830. My choke/throttle linkage cam off,and I can not find where the loop end goes to the chassis. It is the linkage that opens and closes the choke, not engine speed. I have looked everywhere on the unit that moves back and forth with the lever, but nowhere seems to make sense. ANy help on this would be great, thanks
AnswerHello Eric:
Sorry for the Delay. This Question was Located in the Question Pool and I can Only Answer Questions from the Question Pool when I am Not Answering Questions here or at the Other Site I Answer Questions at and I am on Vacation and had a Few Minutes to Answer a Few Questions. The Loop Sets in a Slot of the Throttle Control Bracket. When the Throttle Cable is Moved, it Moves the Throttle Control Pivot and this Moves Until the Engine Revs and/or the Choke Lever is Moved to Engage the Loop End of the Choke Linkage. You can View a Breakdown/IPL of the Engine at this Site Addy; http://www.briggsandstratton.com/maint_repair/manual_and_more/doclist.aspx?categ... and Enter the Model Numbers (XXXXXX) and the First 4 Type Numbers (XXXX) in the Appropriate Boxes and Click GO. Then Select Download PDF. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem, I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Thanks.
Good Luck
