Some tractors have the exact same plate but the choke is a manual cable clamped to the black breather piece you took off. It clamps just like the throttle cable does but to that breather piece and the cable goes to the choke. My 12.5 Briggs and Stratton is manual choke. You can go manual choke or automatic because the plate is still the same. Good option if you don't want automatic choke. You can see the divit where the manual cable clamp goes on the black piece. May not be drilled yet for manual cable. It's right there above the first carburetor nut you removed. Clamp a choke cable in that groove and it goes directly to the choke on top. Better for cold start as it warms readjust the choke.

Maybe a carb. On hood there are numbers stamped. You can type those in Amazon and get a cheap carb that might work better. Or if your very mechanical you can get rebuild kit for existing carburetor. Good luck in your project!

This thingy goes back and forth while some stuff behind there does some wiggly stuff. This other doohicky goes upand down and does sumpin too.

Can the whole throttle plate be deleted if I want to make a foot pedal for the throttle or is it necessary?

@Lawnmowercare

3 ай бұрын

I wouldn’t delete it…what I would do is do the job as if you deleted it. Hook up foot petal to throttle. Then use old throttle linkage as the new choke and leave the plate. That would entail bending that throttle linkage to the choke mechanism that way when you go up and down with old throttle lever it only operates the choke with the plate still installed.

Hi i have old 12.5 Briggs with side plate Gov that seems ok and smooth running and loose when idle throttle then tight at full throttle BUT i can only get 3/4 power and push throttle further and no change. So does this mean the govt arm has slipped a little in that clamp OR the govt spring needs adj- and how? thanks

Loosen governor arm bolt. Make sure to turn shaft clockwise until it stops then tighten that governor shaft back up. Make sure there’s a spring behind that throttle plate, and then a spring on the throttle linkage. If that’s all correct and you’re still getting issues, I would then look into the carburetor.

Ok I hope you can answer this. I had to replace my coil on my Briggs and Stratton 13.5HP people is calling it a kill wire that connects to the coil does it have to be connected for it to run

@Lawnmowercare

4 ай бұрын

I’ve unplugged it before and motor started. If that happens Then something is either shorting the kill wire that you missed, or a safety switch is causing the kill wire to become grounded. Disconnect the wire from the ignition module and use a meter set on ohms to connect to the kill wire and with the key on see if you have continuity. then start going through the wiring until you find what is causing the grounding issues with the key on.

Is your governor spring in place?

Mine has a issue when running that the governor has rpms going up and down constantly as hell it goes back and forth On its own. Without removing the plate I feel the spring on the governor intact. If i disconnect the governor linkage it runs at a steady rpm. Im not sure what the issue is, what causes the governor to kick back and forth on its own?

@Lawnmowercare

7 ай бұрын

Sounds like you have a major surging issue. Might check your carburetor and make sure your linkages have springs on them / & make sure your plate has all three screws and the little spring is installed behind the plate. Personally, I would have to see it in person to make an honest assessment.

whats the part number for the little tiny spring?

Your linkages are supposed to have springs built into them and they’re supposed to be nice and tight / springy. If they are, most likely is something with a Carburetor not working right.

⁠This is my neighbor’s mower. Those Intek single cylinder engines were notorious for having camshaft failures. The camshaft failed, completely destroying the engine in the process. They had a new motor put on there and the guy, who installed it, swears it is installed properly. It might be the carburetor’s problem. I will have to look at it.
