Following on from my previous post regarding flywheel removal and and
rebuild. I am pleased to say everything is back together and it starts,
however it seems to run much faster than it previously did, I don`t think
there is much room for adjustments to the carburetor so thinking maybe
there
is something I haven`t put back together properly the only parts that I
might have got wrong are the 2 springs that are attached to the carb which
I
think are something to do with it.
Anyone got any ideas or how these 2 springs should be located, or if
anything else could be causing this.

Any help appreciated.
thanks


Does this help?

it's a slightly ***** spring but I believe it's in the correct place
(lawnmower scrapped as there is more rust than metal).

make sure that the triangular bit that the wire link fits into moves
freely and its easy to get it the wrong side of the end stop lug (which
should be in the middle

Thanks Alan, that answers 50% of my question as there is another spring, the
one you have pictured looks correct as per mine but the other spring
connects as follows.
On your picture on the spring that is ******** at the end of the ******
coiled end , just above it there is a metal triangular part, the other
spring I am sure connects to that but the other end connects where? I might
be wrong but I can just make out the end of the other spring in your picture
on that triangular part.
