Hi I'm Dana, the latest Buckeye to show up here. I've got a 73 Craftsman I believe they call it a Suburban. I've run it for 43 years and it has a good appetite for oil now but still runs good with a 42 inch deck. I mow about 4.5 acres and bought a used 98 Toro with a 60 inch deck to reduce time mowing. I googled looking for a lawn mower forum and you all popped up so I joined. Yesterday I was playing with a 12 HP Briggs my neighbor gave me and it didn't run right so I cleaned out the carb and fixed that then the throttle cable wouldn't rev the engine up so I came here about a governor spring. I looked at other peoples woes first and didn't look for governor info. I went back out and found a spring on an 11 HP Briggs and it was too long so I shortened it and put it on and the throttle cable works. I'm retired and like to tinker with anything.
