I am pretty sure someone has messed with the governor on this 8hp tech. snowblower. It starts and idles up move it to wide open and it runs wild.. very wild.. how do you adjust it or am I looking in the wrong spot? Thanks..

Hi,
The governor spool attaches to the crankcase cover. The arm is L-shaped and must touch the spool to work.
The throttle control is moved to full speed, the pinch bolt attaching the linkage to the governor shaft is loosen, rotated counter-clockwise and retightened.
For a manual, see:
Tecumseh Small Engine Specifications
Go midway down and choose L-Head...
Peace,
Clarke
