Hello,

I could use some help I am working on a 6hp Tecumseh and need a pic of the govner spring area I think mine is not wright.

I am having a problem with the idle any help would be great.

I am thinking on getting a carb for it but would like to have a choke on it and all i can find is a primer bulb.


Thanks

Ebay.. pretty much your only option since they are out of bizness.

How about a pic of yours? I don't have one right now but i know how they go.

Hard to tell since the pic is pretty blurry. All i can tell you from seeing that one is that the spring end is basically correct and in a good hole. The other wire is also in the correct spot. That is really only there to guide the spring link for some reason. What i cant see is the plate hookup or the carb portion.

What specifically is the problem? Motor starts up and runs wide open or it just won't idle down all the way? Does the throttle work correctly besides that?

That means your carb is clogged most likely, this has nothing to do with your governor spring. Did your kart sit without running for an extended period of time?

On a side note, those of you in the states we have a pretty dang good supply of new Tecumseh 5-6.5hp parts in our shop.

yes it sat for a while I took off the carb and cleaned it out. I was thinking of putting a rebuild kit in it but I was kicking around a new carb maybe one with a choke.
