I hope you guys dont mind helping me out, seeing as I am not a cart builder myself..........but from what I have read on this forum, you all seem to have a great deal of knowledge about small engines.

I am actually building a wakeboarding winch. On one of the sites, someone did a write up on how to remove the governor on the HF 6.5 clone. I am pretty mechanically inclined, however he did not mention that the throttle would have to be reworked after the governor was removed. I was wondering what the best way to do that is. I am really looking to do a remote throttle either by a lawn mower type control, or a twist handle.

Thanks..........
Dan

will this do? i used a piece of clothes hanger to connect the arm and carb together. where the spring attached to the throttle arm from the gov'na, that will be your anchor. a 'z' bend is preferable. at the carb it is a simple 90* bend.

Hey thanks, It might do........It has given me some ideas though and hopefully those will do the trick. I never woult have thought of using something as simple as a clothes hanger for some spare throttle linkage. Lets see what I can fab up.
Thanks
