Also when I did make this adjustment the self propel stopped working

First, engine problem and self propel problem are two different things and probably not related. I recommend cleaning and rebuilding the carb using carb kit #631021B, to eliminate the surging problem. At that point we can work on the drive problem. This manual may help. https://www.mymowerparts.com/pdf/Te...P-4-CYCLE-L-HEAD-FLAT-HEAD-ENGINES-692509.pdf

Do you have a tachometer to check the RPM? In addition to cleaning the carb make sure the air intake is not sucking in air from a bad gasket. start with making sure the bolts are all tight. Not gorrilla tight but snug tight.
