Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Engine Speed, briggs and stratton, hp briggs


Question
I 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
