Thanks everyone for all the great ideas! I will continue to try all these suggestions and put them to practice hopefully don't have to open her up again but that's not to difficult! If i do I put a new sump gasket in literally a week ago when I had it opened up! Should I get a new gasket or...

Thanks all useful info I just have to keep searching for answers !

I hope someone that has this engine chimes in on this before I open this thing up again! Manual doesn't explain this and I can't find a video showing the console movement in relation to throttle control opening and closing throttle plate I can see how it would work but just seems that its not...

One more thing Should the manual throttle control from dash or console move the throttle plate from closed to open 🤔 I asked this question before my OHV engines do this one is not? Or is the throttle plate always held open by governor arm and spring weather in Turtle 🐢 or rabbit 🐇??? This one...

So i was using wire to pull governor arm to idle so I guess I was doing what governor is supposed to do? Ok all good suggestions Can't be adjustment I've tried every which way to Sunday! Will try the spring removal test!

Got it i found the fastener Thanks

Yes all springs in place and correct i have looked at every picture on net and manuals looked at every video I can find and tried everything that's why I'm still thinking its the governor?
