QuestionI Placed a carb from a blown 10 hp Briggs engine onto a 11 hp Briggs that was used but ran good when parked. Change carnb because the carb on my used engine would not get any fuel through it. Here is the problem. When I changed carbs I also had to change the throttle linkage and the governor arm. I am not sure about the spring on the governor, however, I am almost sure I hooked it just like it was on the other engine. Anyway, when I crank the engine it wants to run wide open, too may RPM's. I tried adjusting the governor as some post suggested and the engine either ran wide open of the throttle linkage had no effect at all.
I have the spring on the governor connected in such a way that when I move the throttle control to speed up the engine the governor is puled to the wide open position. When I push the throttle control back the governor is released. However, when I actually crank the engine it will run wide open no matter what I do with the throttle control. I am sure you know exactly what is going on although I probably haven't done a very good job of explaining. Engine Model is 28v707 Type 31116E1 Briggs and Stratton. Please help
