runaway cub (127)
 

I have to have my hand on the speed control lever at all times. If I don't it will speed up to max. I have read all the manuals, I think that the lever needs more friction. But i am not sure.... Any idea???? thanks

Then after you get that fixed you will need to go here.

I think that should pretty-much take care of it.

Thanks Sam.
