11HP Craftsman starts great but will not rev up to high. Is there a spring or cable that goes from the governor to the control lever? I see a small hole on the control lever but no cable or spring. If yes, is it hard to replace?

Yes, and no it is not hard to replace.

yes, and no it is not hard to replace. I am sorry to request this, but could you give a little more detail as to what I need & where all this connects? I went to B&S & Sears website & no detailed information on part(s) needed or where to connect on both sides. I have only done basic tune up, oil service & blades before. Thank you.

My cure for my problem was to clean all the dirt, oily stuff, debris, etc from behind the bowl where the cable should be free. I sprayed it with Blaster, waited awhile & carefully brushed off the gunk. I am now able to rev the engine higher & engage the blades & actually have some power to mow at a higher rate of speed. Of course one should also look under the quill assemblies under the deck where the blades attach & be sure there is no string, wire or other foreign object that is preventing the blades from moving freely. Thanks for the info & the best thing is my cure didn't cost me anything but a little time.
