Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): 8 hp b&s, horizontal shaft, happy holiday


Question
I have an 8 hp horizontal shaft b&s approximately 10 years old.  I was wondering if you might be able to tell me how the governor and throttle springs attach.  This motor is used as a go-devil.  Any help or a picture would be greatly appreciated.
tahnks,

Hello Jeff:

I am Trying to Locate a Camera that will Take Good Photos of the Linkage on Some of the Engines I have in the Shop. I have Tried Several and have had No Luck. However, here is an Explaination of How the Governor is Hooks Up and Functions. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. Have a Happy Holiday Season and May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Be Safe and Happy. Thanks.

Good Luck
