Hey guys, on our 5239g Lawn Boy (which we just got running superbly thanks to all of you).. we're having one last issue with the throttle lever/switch on it, which has always been an issue. It has a "low speed" on the left and a "normal speed" on the right. The problem is, the little switch/lever never stays over on the "normal speed" side. vibrations from the mower always make it drift back to the middle, thus lowering the engine speed a bit. I feel like it should "lock" into place like it does on the low speed side, but it doesn't.. and I can't figure out how the bends in the metal rod work exactly to make it do that. Note that this is a new rod, too.. the older one was bent a little and I thought that was the issue, but we ended up with the same problem with the new rod.
Thanks for your help!
Pete

If you could post a close-up photo it might help. I've never had the problem -- so I don't know if I can help.
BTW, there's a Lawn-Boy forum where you might get a better answer. This, unlike your other question, seems uniquely Lawn-Boy.
