Set up information for carb / throttle cable.
- Thread starter ipbr21054
- Start date
If you completely slack the outer cable with the inner connected. Then position the lever to full throttle, then move the outer cable until the carb linkage just contacts the choke mechanism and tighten the outer cable clamp. When you've done that check that when you push the lever to choke position it operates it
When you operate the lever on the carb,as it opens the throttle fully see what moves the choke butterfly at the end if its travel
If thats the opening at the air filter end, then yes.
Choke flap, is in air-path, before jets. Accelerator butterfly flap is between jet and engine intake.
If you get nowhere with this one, bear in mind some Briggs engines had no throttle control.....the engine speed was set by the governor.

Photos attached are ABC
This is what i have done.
Put throttle lever at HIGH "A", i then moved the outer cable "B" so the linkage just touched the choke linkage "C"
I then started the mower but rpm is really fast.
I then stopped the engine.
With the throttle leve at HIGH & moving the outer cable forward or backward i still get high rpm

Two hours playing with this and best I can do now is high revs.
Looking at my photos is there something I can bend to bring the revs down as nothing at all is doing what it’s supposed to do cable end wise.
And yes throttle lever still does nothing to revs when moved.

Did you actually try what I suggested in post #11
