Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Honda Harmony HRM215 Engine Racing, correct hole, throttle plate
QuestionI recently cleaned carb & reassembled, & now the engine races extremeley fast. Did I do something wrong? Do you have any diagrams for the linkages?
Thanks
AnswerHi Howard,
Sorry, I don't have any diagrams. I suspect that the governer spring may not be in the correct hole. Or the idle screw is set too high. Try adjusting it out, to close the throttle plate a bit. The other screws, the large high speed mixture screw should be set at 1 & 1/2 turns out and the smaller low speed mixture screw set at 3/4 turn out. Also check for an air leak at the carb to block gasket.
Let me know how you make out,
Michael
