Briggs and Stratton quantum engine

been away for a week to see friends

i have fixed the problem governor linkage was on incorrectly

now it blows very very black smoke out of the muffler
and surges
 
Hmmm, surging is usually indicative of running LEAN (not enough fuel) and blowing black smoke is indicative of running rich (too much fuel). However, sometimes surging can be caused by a governor that is out of whack and needs adjusted.
First, i would check the engine oil to be sure the float needle is sticking open and flooding the engine (flooding while sitting and contaminating engine oil).
