I am getting my 51 DC together. I am having trouble getting the RPM's right on it. I have tried to adjust the linkage. The spring is new. The arm across the front of the motor is adjusted according to the book. The linkage from the arm to the carb is adjusted to specs. If I adjust the linkage from the hand throttle to the arm so it revs up it will run up about 1700 RPMs. If I adjust it back it wont rev at all. I adjust the linkage a 1/4 to 3/8 of a inch at a time. When it goes up to 1700 it never "bumps" the governor either. Any idears on what I have goin on here? Thank you for the advice in advance!!
