Hi,
Just joined forum as I've never had any issues with my 2 stroke Lawn Boy in 30+ years. I've got as S21ZPN (S/N G263C0763) that I was using this morning to mow. I am original owner of this machine and love it!
Unfortunately, I pushed it under a mostly dead spruce and a short branch must have hit the carb controls under the hood/cover as all of a sudden it went into what I'll call a low idle, moving throttle lever had no effect. It eventually stalled out and would not restart.
I pulled cleaner and carb and even with the service manual can figure out where to attach the long end of the governor spring. At a minimum I need to correctly reattach spring and reinstall carb to see if she'll run. After cleaning things up a bit, nothing appears broken or really damaged, but I'm not an expert on these. Further troubleshooting after i get it back together if needed.
Thanks for any help here.
Mike
