Someone put out a Honda HRB215 on the curb. There were the usual suspects (cracked plastic cutting deck, a couple of bent cables, some miscellaneous screws missing), but generally the thing was mostly there and some parts were actually brand new (carb, grass bag, plug, air cleaner, blades, exhaust heat shield). I bought a new cutting deck and a transmission cable, switched over all the parts, and she cranked first pull with no smoke. Problem is the throttle linkage makes no sense and she has run-away RMPs. Mostly, the governor lever has two springs (long skinny upper spring and a shorter stouter lower spring). On this one, the lower spring prevails and forces the governor lever wide open. I have taken some pics of the linkage settings. Something is not right and I can't seem to get the adjustments correct with the current spring placement and cable adjustment. See the pics.
Is there anyone out there with a similar mower who will post some pics of the linkage settings in the stop, slow, fast, and choke settings??
