Hello,

The Governor is not connected to the carb. The wind vane is pale yellow in color and the other piece is missing that connects to the carb. So I find another machine....same engine ... same carb.  Now the person I bought the parts machine from already had the carb off, and the rod was connected to the carb. the wind vane is black on this parts machine and looks different than the yellow wind vane.

Am I missing a link connector? how many pieces make up the governor?

I have the vane with spring that is attached to engine and a rod that is connected to the butterfly valve on the carb. I need help on how they connect.

The specs: Jacobson Snow Burst

Engine No. 9G16A518830

SN#  51610  185466

Any help would be greatly appreciated so I can move on to summer chores.

Regards,John

Thanks for your help Trouts2,  As it turned out My vane had the tip ( the  "T" ) part broken off.  The "T" part connects to the linkage that goes to the carburetor.  The Chicago Lawnmower Service Co. had helped also after I provided him a photo and asked what was missing.

He also told me some of these were junk and some were the best little snow-throwers for the money.  Also stated that the paddle bearing opposite the pulley are known to fail. Would this be better oiled of just left alone?  Not sure if it is a self lubricating bronze bearing.
