After listening to my brother control the pony speed with the choke I just fixed the pony governor and can't seem to find my operation and maint. manual. Just need to know the no load high idle for the pony. Got to set that before I can put the hood back on.
Thanks

Thanks Old Magnet. I'm on my way out to set it and be ready to go in the morning. Just amazing how one little fix seems to lead to others.. Had to fix broken flanges and repair a rotted out exhaust system. Original problem was the adjuster for the governor spring was broke. Seemed easy enough until you start unbolting all the stuff in the way.
Thanks again

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
