Putting a carburetor back on?
I have a craftsman yard vacuum engine model 143004500. I just took off the carburetor to replace a broken fule line clamp and the fuel fitting (part number 631807). The original fuel fitting wouldn't come out of the caburetor housing. So I removed the bowl and flushed out the fuel fitting with caburetor cleaner until it came out from the needle vavle. After putting it back together I noticed that the Governor link wasn't opening the send butter fly when the throttle lever was on run.
Did I connect it wrong or does the engine control the govener and it will open on its own?
