    Oh okay, my middle name is Dean. I wonder if the engine has the wrong spark plug in it, it has a ACDELCO 4 spark plug in it, and the manual from what I find shows the part number as 792015.

    Runaway Manco Dingo IX

    Okay, forgot to take a picture of the torque converter however I did add a spring to act as a return spring for the throttle, and now it does want to idle instead of trying to drive forward, I think I did too strong of a spring however had to stretch it out a little bit and placement is not...

    Thank you, I quite like that movie a lot it's kind of a silly movie but it's good in my opinion, over the years from when I first saw it to now, I've seen it about 25 times.

    Runaway Manco Dingo IX

    Thank you glad to be here. If I pull the throttle back in the closed position by hand the engine will shut off with the idle screw all the way out, so to me it's just a throttle issue, I was just thinking about maybe I could add a spring to pull the throttle closed so it will idle fine, and...

    Runaway Manco Dingo IX

    I just picked up this Manco Dingo IX yesterday for $150 which to me is a heck of a price, I was told it was leaking from the carb, I found out the fuel line hose clamp is stretched out and it's leaking from the carburetor fuel inlet line. I fixed the leaking issue after rebuilding and cleaning...
