Help with 108
 

Guys,
I was working on my 108, rebuilt the brakes, did some general cleanup and found that the PTO wasnt working. Removed it and awaiting parts. While i had it apart i removed the rock shaft for the pto, basket pulley, and a few other parts including the governor arm to clean up and repaint. Slapped everything back together and didnt take the time to adjust the governor arm. Well initial start pointed that out to me as the motor raced. Today i adjusted it as per the manual, but the problem is now it will idle, but as soon as i throttle it up it dies. Not quite sure what i missed here.
Ideas???

Did you adjust the screws the carb?
Sometimes a quick snap open of the throttle, with a too lean adjustment, will cause it to starve and die.
