Hello all,
I'm Pete and I live in Virginia Beach, VA. I wondering if someone can help me with a problem. First I'm going to openly admit that I have very little knowledge of engines of any kind. My main saving grace is being handy with a pinch of common sense. So here's my problem, I have with a Toro lawn mower with a Briggs and Stratton engine Model 12H802 Type 0658-01. I have a loose spring and I can't figure out where it goes. I believe it connects the throttle and the choke, but I really have no idea what I'm talking about. Hahaha Obviously I need help. I've searched online for a repair manual with no luck. I think I just need a picture or drawing of how the engine looks with the spring connected. Can't find one.:freak: The lawn mower will start but will not keep running unless I force the choke, err... closed? :confused:
It looks like a guy can get some help here. :thumbsup: To describe the spring I'd say it has a closed oblong loop at one end of a straight length ending in a coiled end with a round loop. In the parts manual it has a diagram number of 217 and is on page 3 with the choke assembly. Unfortunately I cannot find a manual that shows how it connects. Who knows I may even be missing another spring or two. My lack of knowledge prevents me from knowing. I'll appreciate any help that can be offered.
