105 surging/dying with deck engaged
 

I mowed last summer with the 105 after putting on a new carb and belts, and plowed this winter.

After installing the deck, I am having it surging and or dying under load. See video, it cycles just like this:

I just ordered a tuneup kit, but until that comes, I have done the following:
Set points to.020, they were a little wider. Set high speed screw back to 2 turns out from closed, set idle 1-1/2 from closed. Started, turned up throttle to full, and adjusted per maintenance manual.

I then engaged the deck, and fine tuned. Then I take it out, and it still acts like the video. What would be the symptoms of the valves needing resurfacing?

Governor adjustment?

Thanks, I did see that procedure in the manual, but havent tried it yet. What would cause it to go out of adjustment?

wear and the fact you put a new carb on.

Ok, that make sense. Does that sound like it would cause my issue?

I just saw that i need to time the points http://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/s...ad.php?t=33461 ,so I may just wait for the tuneup parts and time the points, then set the governor

Governor adjustment takes like 3 min. I wouldn't wait. If it's running ok, points don't wear out all that often. If it needs them, that's fine. I'm not saying don't tune it up, I'm just saying that if it doesn't need them, no reason to replace.

But you should set the timing never the less...

Just the way the link says.

ok, thanks guys. I will adjust the governor. It the wifes birthday today, so I'll look this week.

Is this really all there is to it? You are right 3 minutes
