How Mechanical Governors Work. A mechanical governor uses flyweights to create a force based off of crankshaft speed which is balanced by the force of the governor spring. The top engine speed is varied by increasing the spring force to run faster or decreasing the force to run slower.
Assisting your engine while not in motion, the Carburetor Idle Adjustment Screw with Spring is a vital fuel component. Located on the 2-stroke carburetor assembly, this component is tightened into the carburetor. This results in engines idle increasing or decreasing depending on how tight the idle screw is.
The carburetor is attached to the throttle cable, which is attached to the gas pedal. When you push down on the gas, you`re literally causing the carburetor to open up and pull in more air, thus pulling in more fuel as well, bringing more power and speed out of the engine.

ANSWER : You can check the linkage that links the governor to the carb. If that is fine then you can check the fuel line for a blockage, the carburetor for debris, and if that is fine then you may want to try sanding the rust off the magnet (on the fly-wheel).

Replacing a connecting rod on snowblower engine
ANSWER : That project requires a complete engine disassembly, but it’s very probably not worth doing – the broken rod probably did so much damage to the crankcase and crankshaft and piston and cylinder that it’d be far far cheaper just to replace the engine.

I removed the carburator from my Murray 22″ with Tecumseh TVS90 engine. When I put it back together, I must have connected it incorrectly. It just runs full out no matter where I have the throttle set. I guess the spring and the connector to the governor may be on incorrectly? I don’t know becuase I can’t find an exploded view of the connectors.
ANSWER : Have a look at this page – it has diagrams and instructions for getting the linkages right:

Tecumseh lh318sa auger does not work – Tecumseh Snowblower Snow Blower Starter Handle (Tecumseh)
ANSWER : If you are asking about the pull cord and when you pull it the engine does not turn and the cord pulls super easy it generally means that the dogs inside the cove assembly are not engaging. This may be caused by a broken spring or dog inside the pull cord assembly. You would need to carefully remove the assembly cover from the engine and pull the cord to see if the dogs are protruding from the assembly if not you would need to repair or replace the parts as needed if so then you would have to check if the will still extend under strain, if not then repair if they still protrude under strain you would have to examine the engine where the unit was removed and look for damage or wear and replace parts accordingly. If you are in fact asking about the front or snow auger on the snow blower itself then the most likely answer would be that you have sheared a pin which holds the auger to the shaft that rotates it. The shear pins (as they are called) are designed with softer metal to break if you hit a large piece of ice, stick or rock that may damage more important and expensive parts of the blower if they stayed intact during the incident. To fix this merely find the hole in the auger along the shaft that is no longer pinned (the auger should spin freely) spin it to line up with the hole n the shaft (which may still have a broken piece of the shear pin in it) drive out any remaining pin with a punch and replace with the appropriate pin for your machine. If the pins are intact you may have a bad belt, pulley, or tensioner and you would have to move further into the repair process.
