Hi,
Here are some shots I took; The throttle is fully open (off position). I bought a new governor spring ($13.25 here in Mackay) and have added it to the carby. There is a shot of the old spring if you can call it that! However, to no avail as the engine still races away to full throttle. If I manually move the governor it works OK. I notice more tension than I thought would be there on the governor but can't figure out where it is coming from or whether that's normal. Do you think a good clean of the carby would make a difference? I found this on the web it is to do with the governor setting - it might help someone but it did'nt help me:

The Following is an Instruction File I Made for Setting the Governor Arm Correctly. Any Input is Appreciated.
>>If you Removed/Loosened the Governor Arm from the Governor Shaft or Put the Linkage in a Bind when the Carburetor was Removed, then Reset the Governor.
>>**To Reset the Governor; Loosen the Governor Arm Bolt and Turn the Governor Shaft Clockwise Until it Stops.
>>Using the Governor Arm Hold the Carburetor to Full Throttle. Now with the Shaft Full Clockwise and the Governor Arm and Carburetor Held at Full Throttle, Tighten the Governor Arm Bolt.
>>If the Engine Still Runs Full Throttle, then Reverse the Rotation of the Governor Shaft, but Still Hold the Carburetor at Full Throttle with the Governor Arm.
>>**If it Still Runs at Full Throttle, then Check the Internal Governor.**
