Hi everyone!
I recently got myself into a 1999 response and I've begun my overhaul. IT runs well and the clock has been replaced so the guess is that someone rebuilt the 18 hp vanguard because of the get up and go !
I had to write this post because while i was giving every person not smiling a ride in the thing, The throttle got stuck open and I could not get it unstuck.
I choked out the motor while hanging onto the control arms with everything I had.
So my questions.
1. After I start it, Why does the motor now sound like it's full throttle when I am not throttling up. Currently my throttle linkage looks good and when i twist the handle I can see the cable moving all the springs and pulleys.
2. I am going to install a kill switch for the motor and I wonder if anyone has done this?
Thanks for your time and I promise I'll share pics when i begin the disassembly .
