I have just purchased an Attco Reel Mower,the serial number 1455/6, numbers on the engine are 764 over 112 209.It is in remarkable exceptional condition.But I seem to have one problem is that the motor races like blazes and there is no way I can keep up with it.I have had it to a lawn mower reair shop and he has slowed it down a bit but he seems to think it has the wrong carbbut I have seen photos of other simalar models and it looks OK to me.I would like to know if anyone can supply any data on the settings and timing.What fuel mix etc and any other data pertaining to this model.I would be very gratfull if anyone can help me out.

robbie162,

I am sure that you have a air leak on the brass seals on the engine. Can you forward me a picture of the motor.Just go to contact details and use the e-mail link.
