Morning, everyone!
Next adventure in the books. In the middle of restoring a 62 Sovereign and have run into a few snags. Exhausted every research outlet and have found no answers. Few possibilities but nothing direct.
First part: The machine starts up fine everytime after having to mess around with the throttle, governor and choke assembly. However, when I put it in drive, the rear axle spins just fine but the tires do NOT. All belts and pulleys appear to be in good shape and functioning properly. I have read about the axle keys but I'm not sure this model has one. Can't find any videos or anything.
Second part: I mentioned above that the machine starts fine and even have the throttle working like it should....besides one problem. The throttle is reversed. Slow is high and high is slow. I can't figure out if I put something on backwards or if I had something in the wrong spot when I connected it.
When I can't find the answers myself, you guys never let me down! Haha. After all these trials and tribulations, I should be able to do some answering here in the future. Appreciate all the past, current and future help, everyone! Thanks in advance!
