Brand new, but probably 30 yrs old-nice companion to my Sun timing light. Using Service manual, pg 7B-12, I checked carb adjustments, then checked the points. They were closed too much, so adjusted them. Started it up, and it runs better than it has in ages !! I did not tinker with the governor. The instructions say to hold two linkages against their stops, but don't say open stops or closed stops, then tighten screws. Instructions to tighten screws presumes that they have been loosened first ? Next instructions are to set throttle lever stop bolts. Without a deep investigation, it appears that the seat needs to be dismantled to access those nuts. Am I missing something? Why adjust those stops when there is so much available adjustment on the throttle rod where it connects to the governor ?</p></blockquote><p></p>
