I am going to remove the old carb tomorrow. I noticed the choke and governor connectors have a ball and socket type connection. I gently tried to remove the choke connector, but was afraid to force the issue. Is there a trick to removing the choke connector arm and the same connector with the throttle governor ?? I have narrowed the engine miss down to the carb, thanks to all the tips I received from you fellow 8N owners.. THANKS to all that r

Yup, each end of those carb rods are equipped with a ball and socket.

Grasp the 'rod' with the fingers on one hand, grasp the 'head' with finger of the other hand, and pull apart (against the spring pressure) until the ball can be popped out.

Keep track of which rods go to which governor forks. Reversing them will create a real headache.

Just went through this on my 9n. The "socket" you mentioned is spring loaded and slides on the linkage rod. When you slide the socket, it allows the "ball" to come out. As mentioned before, if the connection is all gunked up, you need to clean it first before trying to dissasemble.

There should be a spring loaded 'band' around the shaft/rod that slides away from the connection. It may be gunked up and take a bit of persuasion to move, but it should slide away and give you enough room to disconnect the shaft/rod from the ball.
