Ok,

As usual, it looks like maybe I may have been over complicating it. Once I understood a little better how the system works I was able to determine that this doohickey (governor arm?) was bent!

Seems like it was bent in too much, can anyone confirm?

As you can see in the 3rd picture I moved it out with my hand. The mower ran a little better but was still surging. It stopped and I couldn't get it started again. Only had a few minutes to look at it though. Will troubleshoot some more this PM.


So what makes the governor arm move? Is it the auto-choke moving it by itself? Because it's not the bail lever near the handlebar. For me pulling that lever, only moves the thing above it.
My Honda HRR216 won't start at all, and I was wondering why no lever mechanically moves this thing from your video.
