the air filter is in the correct way.the hole pushes over the piping inside the casing.even taking the filter out completely doesnt make a difference.

found a problem this arvy in that the float needle had fallen out somehow.fixed that but it still wont rev like it should.from idle to max is very little difference.ages ago i got the willies and threw the mower across the yard.after straightening the handles(whoops) it was fine.a little to good in that it would rev its nut off and u had to back the throttle off.but wasnt any grass tall enuff to stall it.now hit some grass and it stalls.its like the governer is completly seized or not functioning as its defnitly getting full throttle as i checked that and it seems maybe the stupid governer is the problem.and im not amilier with governers.stupid idea anywasy.put a rev limiter on them and use the throttle to control the speed.

so any ideas from that?
