gt4 196 #1 Posted February 14, 2016 On my wheelhorse I have a 6 hp Tecumseh.When it's throttling low or idle speed it sounds great.Then when I throttle it up it seems to race and wont come back down.Do you think I just need to adjust the governor,or is there something else I would look for Thanks.

Wheelin'theSky 57 #3 Posted February 24, 2016 I had the same issue on a snowblower with a smaller Tecumseh. Cleaned and fiddled with the carb settings and it went away. Fresh gas and a good carb cleaning are sometimes all you need to do to those old Tecumseh's. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
