Default Qualcast Classic 35s - Throttle Issue

Hi All,
I purchased a Classic 35s cheaply ( i already own one) as it was a non-runner needing a Spark Plug & Service !-- Reality is I have had to totally gut the Carb, Fuel Inlet Valve with the Head off, New fuel tank & Pipe -- etc, etc.

It now gleams and after the Caremel treacle deposist removed from all components it is like a new machine with the exception of the problem that I have no throttle control at all. From start (1st Pull) it goes into to full throttle regardless of setting, and what I assume to be the governer link arm hunts violently opening & closing the Carb.

I made no adjustments to the cable or the linkages and have no idea if they had been any as it was in "dumped in the back of a damp shed" condition.

I have spent a lot of time on this machine and it looks newer and better than my existing one, of which i have slaved various components across with no success.

Can anyone assist in a solution to this throttling issue ? When solved this will be a great wee mower!

See photos attached.

With Thanks,

Steve
