jasoncracer 0 #1 Posted June 19, 2011 Got a nice c141. From my boss ran great earlier befor I brought it home starting surging at high idle maybe fuel pump he put on? Going bad? New points and plug. What can it be? On 3/4 to high idle? :hide: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rmaynard 14,966 #4 Posted June 19, 2011 There are various positions in which to locate the governor spring. Have you tried changing the spring position? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cody 275 #6 Posted June 19, 2011 Sounds like it could be running lean, try opening the high speed needle a quarter turn and see if there is any improvement. Adjust accordingly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rmaynard 14,966 #9 Posted June 19, 2011 The book says to start with the governor spring in the 3rd hole down from the top on the arm and the second hole from the bottom on the speed control bracket. I have all of mine set to 3rd from the top on arm, and 3rd from bottom on speed control. If it still surges, move the spring to the next hole down on the arm.
