Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): John Deere L100 Tractor: Need assembly help for spring which connects governor arm to throttle linkage, john deere l100, throttle linkage

Question
I need to figure out how to assemble the spring which connects the governor arm to the throttle linkage.  I *thought* I knew which 2 holes should be used, but assembled as such seem to result in no possible movement for the governor arm.  I'm 99% sure I have the governor link and choke link installed properly; those seem straight forward per the manuals.

A secondary question: does the governor crank (the pin on the motor) control the arm's movement, or is it vice-versa?

I have the B&S Engine manual and JD Operator Manual and there isn't a single picture which shows the backside of the control bracket (the piece which mounts to the engine and holds the throttle linkage gear assy).

B&S Motor is Model 31F707, Type 0112E1, Code 020919ZE.

The spring I'm referring to is part # 12 in the JD Schematic: http://jdpc.deere.com/pimages/MP19/MP19876________UN17NOV98.gif

Answer
Hello Kian:

**The Throttle Cable Attaches to the Throttle Control Bracket. The Cable Moves a Slide that Moves a Pivot. The Pivot has the Spring  Attached to it and the Other End of this Spring Attaches to the Governor Arm. The Solid Link Connects to the Governor Arm and goes to the Throttle Shaft on the Carburetor.  When the Throttle Cable is Moved it Moves the Pivot and the Pivot Pulls the Spring. The Spring Pulls the Governor Arm and the Governor Arm Moves the Throttle Shaft. Usually the Spring is in the Lower Hole in the Governor Arm and the Solid Link is in the Top Hole of the Governor Arm.**
>>The Following is an Instruction File I Made for Setting the Governor Arm Correctly. Any Input is Appreciated.  
>>If you Removed/Loosened the Governor Arm from the Governor Shaft or Put the Linkage in  a Bind when the Carburetor was Removed, then Reset the Governor.
>>**To Reset the Governor; Loosen the Governor Arm Bolt and Turn the Governor Shaft Clockwise Until it Stops.
>>Using the Governor Arm Hold the Carburetor to Full Throttle. Now with the Shaft Full Clockwise and the Governor Arm and Carburetor Held at Full Throttle, Tighten the Governor Arm Bolt.
>>If the Engine Still Runs Full Throttle, then Reverse the Rotation of the Governor Shaft, but Still Hold the Carburetor at Full Throttle with the Governor Arm.
>>**If it Still Runs at Full Throttle, then Check the Internal Governor.**
>>The Spring #12 is Attached to the Lower Hole in the Governor Arm. The Governor Shaft has Only about a 1/4 to 3/8 of a Turn if that.
>>If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I Hope to be Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Be Safe and Happy. Thanks.

Good Luck
