Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Governor spring and governed idle spring connections, Governor Springs


Question
By cleaning the carburetor of Briggs%26Stratton 10A902 I removed the governor spring and the governed idle spring and forgot how they are connected to the governor! Do you have a diagram that shows how these springs are connected? Thanks!

Answer
Hello TT:

**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.**
