Hey guys, I'm trying to get this cart going for my grandsons. The throttle linkage was really rigged up. I ordered the correct linkage and cable for it. Does anyone have pics of the correct position for the throttle linkage and spring for a Tecumseh 6hp?

This might be the manual for your kart, 485B (5 HP) or 486B (6 HP) Tecumseh OHV engines. The manual shows a throttle linkage diagram but it’s almost worthless:
I’m all for fixing engines, any engine as long as it’s still good and has compression etc., it’s fun and rewarding. But.... since you mentioned grandsons *plural*, it might be time for another kart or two (one for you?) and/or a fresh engine.
The Predator 212cc is on sale starting now June 1 for 109.99, lowest it has been in a while. If you’re not an ITC member you have to wait til June 5-7.
