GX240 carb issues

[bertsmobile1]

Upon doing some research on a few websites looking for parts ,I found a few mentions of an automatic decompression release that is on this model.There appears to be a spring that fails at times,or the cam lever perhaps seizes at times.I am unsure if either one of those failures could cause the issues that I am having,but I am sure neither failure can be good.The motor did run fairly good at low speed using the starting fluid,but that does not mean too much as pretty mush everything will run on starting fluid,just not for long.This motor only ran until the starting fluid ran through it.Anybody have any ideas regarding the decompression possibility?

They fail the other way.
The decompressor is very somilar to a mechanical govenor in principles and the spring works agains a bob weight to activate the valve lifter at low revs.
