[Rod(NASNUT) 1]

:P In my 68 Charger 9 I have a 10 HP. Tecumseh HH100 it works hard and runs well the only thing is the carb the rod for the throttle lever is wore and it will idle high do any of you know how I can fix it or do I need to find a carb? :D

Rod do you mean the throttle shaft?

If so I don't know as much about the tecumsehs as say the Kohlers.

But with the Kohlers you can drill the carb & install new bushings to take the slop out & prevent the air leaks.

This would be better answered by a tucky expert....Bill? :D

Yes it is the throttle shaft if I could find a good carb for a good price I would god that way I dont wount to go without it now

Rod,

If the Tecumsehs throttle shaft is worn you can get a replacement throttle shaft. This fix unfortunatly does not repair the worn carburetor shaft bore , there is how ever a seal that can also go underneth the throttle arm on top to keep air from getting sucked in

Rod,

Did you ever get parts at THOMAN SUPPLY in Lewistown? (They handle Kohler, Tecumseh, Briggs, etc.) Here's there number: (717) 248-5422

I get my parts through Milesburg Auto & Electric, and they come from Thoman.

They should be able to get whatever you need -- as long as it's not obsolete/NLA.

:D Thanks TT I will do that.
