hi everyone i now have the westwood running pretty good and starting off the key but theres a problem with a rod that comes off carb choke and goes behind ? the plate that the throttle is connected to but i cannot see where it belongs any suggestions it has to work in with the throttle throttle pulled full up is choke on shove it down and the choke goes off    any help would be great many thanks    dave k

it should connect to the throttle ultimately, an arm gets pushed when the throttle gets pushed to full

aye but how i have a rod with a sort of s shape on carb end and on the other theres a large c shape but nothing to connect it to  no holes or obvious bits is there something like a plastic clip missing ?

I'll see if i can find a pic - we've had loads of those 11hp engines!

there should be a rocker arm that the cable attaches to, then two arms if I recall - one might be spring loaded

Assuming that we're talking 25 or 28 series Briggs there have been two if not three different throttle/choke/governor link set-ups so an image would be useful as would the Model, Type and Code numbers from the Briggs blower housing; usually to be found just above the spark plug.

Is your "large C shape" more of a U ? If so it sounds as though it is of the type that goes through a slot in the throttle box and is just pushed by a "paddle" on the throttle linkage to apply the choke - no positive connection.

agree, the westwood one is usually like the one I posted above. I know some even have a separate choke lever...

  I've a Mountfield with a B&S 11hp engine and a spare engine out of a Westwood. I'll take a look at them tomorrow if I get the chance. Though the Mountfield throttle/choke arrangement, now works the wrong way round. slow is fast and fast is choke and slow.

  I had problems with it's running when I got it.  Played about with the linkage, not really knowing what I was doing and it goes like stink now.
