djohn24 10 #1 Posted September 22, 2015 Im sure someone has an idea, as to what is going on with this 416H, I recently purchased. I 've searched through the forums and didn't see anything that covered it. I believe it's a 1990. The motion control lever is down in front of the seat. Not on the column When I pull the lever out of neutral and move it forward, it goes all the way forward It doesn't stay where I set it. It just goes wide open. Tried mowing with it and had to constantly hold back on the lever to keep it from running full speed. I'm sure it's something simple but I don't know enough about these yet to figure it out. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
