G'day there
I have a B & S on my newly acquired Rover Colt 8
The engine Model is 125602 0127 E1 050822 FB
I understand that this may well not be the original engine
My problem is the throttle spring is not correct
I have tried some different springs, but none reduce the engine speed when I throttle off
hopefully my two pictures load
One shows the position where the spring is attached, the other with no spring
Could I get help with the correct spring, where to get? (EBay No, etc )
Is this the correct position for the spring?
Thank you in advance
Dave

Well what you trying to use is way too strong of a spring for the governor. You need PN 691291. Other here should point you to a place in Australia where you get the governor spring. I am US based so that is way too way to ship something from here

Was the spring in the correct spot?
Thanks

Your spring is in the correct spot, just way to powerful a spring

I am guessing its an intek motor, which aren't as common as quantum. Any mower shop with a briggs account would be able to get you one in, but I wouldn't say most would necessarily have one on hand.

Doesn't seem there is an aftermarket option
