I've been having a problem with TO30 #3. Since its rebuild this past summer I have not been able to get her to increase speed or get power under load properly.
After a complete carb rebuild and check on the timing the engine runs fine and smooth. I can move from idle to full power only if I do it slowly any faster and it gasps for more fuel, a bit of choke helps it stay running.
Comparing it to #1 TO30 I notice the throttle linkage will go forward to add power and the governor arm starts to compensate later than #1 does. Both moving the same with the engine off, not sure if it is the spring or the governor itself not doing the job correctly. Any help would be great, I have my dearborn plow on this and need it for this winters snow here in MA.
Thanks
