    My Lord! I have looked ALL OVER Google-land to find this exact and precise information. Taryl - I salute you for a precise, detailed, simple explanation of the proper linkage and governor settings for my Tecumseh 11-hp snowblower engine. I NEEDED THIS!
    I put on a new carburetor, and I could not get the thing to run right! It would always run at the high-throttle setting, (not over-revving), and I could not get any intermediate speed settings. When I replaced the carb, I did indeed tweak that little governor arm-pivot-screw, but I thought I put it back in the same place. Since the carb was new (an expensive Tecumseh factory carb) I had to presume everything was good with the carb (non-adjustable job) - I did, however, verify the float bowl setting. It was right on the money. I use ethanol-free gas and everything. I spent an hour tweaking the idle and high-speed screws, but I could not get the beast to decrease its speed to idle.
    After sleeping on it and giving it much thought, I figured it MUST be the governor... but after hours of searching, I could find nothing but hit-or-miss adjustments. Then I found your channel! This is THE ONLY video I have found that shows EXACTLY what to do and how to do it. In fact, you have another video (May 2015) that shows a slightly different way to set the governor, but this one is, by far, the best. It is simple, concise, and it worked for me immediately! The machine is now just like the day I bought it. Thank you sir!

    I've been watching repair videos for year's and can't believe I just discovered this channel a week ago. It's amazingly funny and educational! Keep up the good work. This channel is gonna take off like a rocket when more people discover it. It's unique!

  • @lakjaswal7486
    @lakjaswal7486 4 роки тому +1

    Thank you! I tinkered around the whole day last week. It would not start at all. So I cleaned the carb. It started on second pull but it would rev extremely high. I couldn't get it run normal. I almost gave up and was going to buy a new snowblower (bought mine used 13 years ago. Its got to be at least 20 years old). I spend some time searching for a repair video and this is the only one I found that explained how to adjust the governor. I must have installed the governor linkage arm improperly. Its running well now. Thanks again.

    For $25 I bought a 1995 model of a very similar MTD snow blower with an 8 HP Tecumseh. I'm having to fix a few things on it, including the carb, and I made the mistake of removing the governor arm. But here is Taryl serving me exactly the dinner I need. I followed the instructions here, and now it is running pretty good. I wish I could leave a hundred likes for this.

    Tarly took the carb of to replace it with a new carb.
    Could not figure out why the throttle was not working.
    I did not realize why it would not increase in speed.
    I will flip the throttle control around to the top and it should be good to go.

Connected the linkage and the spring is still sprung without much tension.

    Hi i have a 11hp generator with a Honda GX340 engine, with the idle controle ON, the governor keeps reving the engine up and down with the controle off the engine runs fine at full speed. I took the carb off and cleaned it all up including the idle jet, it made no difference. Does it sound like there's a problem with the low idle system or does the governor need adjusting?

    Hi Taryl, first time i used my snowblower this year, 8.5hp Tecumseh, i couldnt run it off choke. Had to keep it t half choke. Remove carb, cleaned everything real well, replaced a bad o-ring on the emulsion tube, reinstalled everything, now it runs off choke, but only runs well at full throttle. When you put the throttle down to low speed idle, it runs really low almost stalling and really high. It keeps cycling back and forth slowly. Any idea what is wrong?
    Its the non adjustable carb.
    Love your vids!

      Just put a new carburetor on a customer’s today, has the same issue. Starts easily but then revs really high. I’ve done everything in this video and it still wants to over rev. Did you ever figure out what the problem was? I adjusted all the set screws for the throttle, adjusted the governor and no matter the combination of settings, I can’t get it to run right.
