Throttle Hook Up

[Kyle]

Can somebody show pictures of there throttle hook up. I have a 3.5 Tecumseh.

My carb is very similar to this.

Or explain how you hooked it up.

First, YOU explain exactly what you need. Is your engine stock, with governor intact, and you just want to know where and how to connect the throttle cable from the pedal? Or has your governor been removed and you want to fab up a direct link?

 

[Kyle]

Im using a twist throttle for a mini bike. The engine is stock. I am not using the governor. I want to hook it up directly to the butterfly thing (not sure what you call it)

 

[Doc Sprocket]

Have you removed the governor?

Otherwise, it's pretty straightforward. Which part is giving you difficulty?

 

[Kyle]

Just not sure how to make the cable stay in

Google tecumseh throttle linkage. You should find lots of pics. Of course you really should just junk that carb and get a adjustable one. I messed with one of those bulb primer carbs forever. Wouldn't idle for crap. Took it off, put it on,cleaned it, put it back on.
Finally just bought a adjustable carb and never looked back. Like lees than fourty brand spankin new to my front door.
Don't forget about a return spring after you get that linkage figured out.
What engine is that going on? Tecumseh 3.5. There should be a throttle hookup on the engine. Then you run a linkage rod from there to your butterfly on your carb.

This all is why I asked if the governor is being used or not. Makes a big difference in the connections.

I have the arm for the governor just not the liinkages

Where did you buy that carb? I need to start looking for one for a 5.5hp Tecumseh.
