I recently bought a Manco Fox 2 model 415D-09 2 seat kart, with a 5HP Tecumseh. When I bought it the gas tank, disassembled carburetor, exhaust, and several nuts and bolts, were in a couple of boxes.
Unfortunately, these boxes had unsealed bottoms. I figured out how to reassemble everything and what was missing, except for the throttle linkage.
This is a 5.0HP Tecumseh model #0HH50 60879G, family YTPXS. 1721AA, disp.172 cc, and a DOM of 0269.
Its going to be hard to figure this out as I already know that there is a linkage rod missing and maybe more.

Ha Ha Ha.What do you want pics of the parts I don't have or the places they don't go? Some pics of the proper set up would be useful, though.
I would like to send some pics anywhere on this forum, (still working on my avatar and gallery photos), but I went from a flip phone to this Samsung Galaxy Victory 4G LTE a couple of weeks ago and I am still figuring it out. There is a sticky on posting pics with an I Phone, but it doesn't jive with using an Android. This thing takes awesome pics, but they are like 25,600x1, 9200 thousand million pixels and I can't seem to figure out how to downsize them to fit the forum requirements.

First off, thanks to you Itsid from the link to picresize.com. I did a test run with an unrelated pic, and everything seemed to go well. When I tried again, well-not so much. I'm beginning to think I got a bad phone. No-one could possibly be happy with the results I get with this thing. I am so tired of doing things 8-10times to get it done, something is wrong. This thing locks up more often than a maximum security prison guard.
Anyway, as a happy accident, one of my neighbors has the same motor on basically the same kart. So even though the linkage on that one has been altered, the missing link is there, and there is enough correct to allow me to get mine right.
Thanks anyways guys, and hopefully I will be able to post pics of this kart soon.

Was just the first online picresizer that popped out of nowhere (aka google ;))
I'm not a fan of samsung, but some of my friends are really happy with it, once you get to know android a little better I'm sure you'll be too.

Check the options in your camera app, there should be a resolution tab or something.

Maybe you can check the partslist at partstree for missing parts

I actually went to partstree right before I went to my neighbors. It had a good breakdown that showed the parts I suspected were missing, but not a clear picture of how they hooked up and where.Also, while they were listed in the breakdown, they were not available for sale.
Just to make this as clear as I can without pics, we're talking about the little springs and rods that go between the carb and the plate that holds the cable and has a lever system for the carb and governor.
Had this been a B&S, I would probably have a lot less worry. It is the one thing I really try to take note of on teardown, because everything has 2 or more holes and they are usually designed for several different applications so without an original as a guideline, its not easy to set up. Missing parts from a set-up you've never seen before, well..........

I'm trying to resurrect the same engine. Came to me with carb dangling off and no governor/throttle linkages at all so a picture of your set up would be spectacular!
