Governor Linkage Briggs Stratton

Rod in MN · Apr 14, 2019

HI I have a Briggs & Stratton Model 190412 Type 2738 01 Code 83051912 Having problems Governor and Throttle linkage and Gov. spring. I can not find a Manual on this model to down load free?

Anyone have a picture of the linkage. It is on a snow blower with a knob on top of the engine that you move up and down . it's idle or wide open to where it would go Bang Any help would be very helpful

Thank You

If this happened suddenly, the governor itself may have self-destructed.

First, check that the the position of the governor arm on the governor shaft is correct, using the procedure quoted below. If it sill goes from idle to "wide open" with no governor action, likely it will be necessary to disassemble the engine for a look at the governor itself.

"Static Governor Adjustment
Horizontal Crankshaft
1. Loosen screw holding governor lever to governor
crank.
2. Rotate throttle plate linkage from idle position to
wide open position. Note direction of rotation of the
governor arm attached to the throttle linkage.
3. Place and hold the linkage in high speed position.
4. While holding the linkage in this position, use an
appropriate tool to rotate the governor shaft until it
stops in the direction noted in step 2.
5. Tighten screw holding governor lever to governor
crank. Torque to 35 ? 45 in. lbs. (3 ? 5 Nm).
6. Before starting engine, manually actuate governor
linkage to check for binding."

Email me if you want more detailed info.
