    Honda GX160 Throttle default at full throttle?

    There are videos explaining my issue. The only way I've been able to fix this is to add a spring that holds the throttle to the right but that's very sketchy and doesn't last long before the spring breaks. Any ideas as to why the governor arm is staying at full throttle instead of none?! I'm so...

    I have a Manco streaker with a 3.5hp tecumseh engine. I currently just picked this up and was told it needs a new governor spring. Does anyone have a pic of their carb set up with springs and a place to get springs? Thanks ahead of time

    Hemi 212 Predator no governor longevity questions

    I know most everybody either bypasses or removes the governors on their Predators. They also rejet the carb and put on a header and air filter. My question is will a Hemi 212 Predator survive running at WOT with ONLY those mods? I'm talking about stock rod, stock springs, stock rockers, stock...

    Tecumseh 30206 (H50 Throttle link) and Tecumseh 31879 (Governor Link)

    I need 2 Tecumseh 30206 linkages and 1 Tecumseh 31879 linkage. It doesn't have to be original. I'd settle for something that looks and functions correctly. I could also use a couple of the springs from the cable to the first linkage (Tecumseh 30202) It would be a plus if you could get it to me...

    From what I've read the governor on my Roadster 2 uses the centrifugal force of the engine to limit how much the throttle on my carb opens using a particular linkage? Is this correct? So bypassing the governor should be as simple as rerouting the throttle cable linkage to open the throttle...
