B & S Classic / Sprint Engines

Recommended Posts

Some of you may remember that I have fitted a sprint 375 engine to a newly restored Hayterette. I want to use manual throttle in lieu of the automatic rev sysytem. If I fit the throttle cable will I have to disconnect the small springs connected to the fan paddle. ?? Please excuse

my terminology for some parts. Regards Potash.

As Nigel says, but what has been holding the throttle open against the governor's (automatic rev system) desire to close it? Was it a new engine that came with a fixed link to hold the throttle open? I fitted a good few Sprints to Hayterettes over the years and cant recollect encountering any difficulty. An image of your engine with the air filter removed will facilitate a more meaningful answer.

I am going to try and run it on automatic throttle and see how it cuts, any advice on this would be welcome as i have just bought two more of these great little mowers. Thanks for replies.
