1863. Kohler CH18 throttle issues.
Hi everyone this is my first post.
I completely rebuilt and restored my '92 1863, along with a fully rebuilt kohler CH18-62509 I've got an issue however, my throttle control is funky. Holds itself at full throttle, doesnt want to idle down. New governor gear was installed internally. I'm lost now. I've tried every adjustment possible. I will attach some pictures to maybe aid in my diagnosis. Thank you, Patrick |

Either you hooked up the linkage incorrectly, or it is not adjusted correctly. Not a hard problem to fix. Look at the linkage, figure it out and fix it.

The governor's sensitivity adjustmentwon't keep it from idling down. The throttle set up will.

Just figured spring could be pulling all the time if it were positioned incorrectly.

If the throttle isn't set right, yes..... but the sensitivity position is irrelevant.

Did you adjust the governor to spec?

Who installed the gear?

There should be a picture here. I tried adding it as an attachment. Let's see if this works.

Yep. That's a pic of the throttle and choke linkage/mechanism.
You didn't answer the questions though: Did you properly set the governor shaft? If not, you need to do that. I keep my original opinion that you don't have the throttle linkage adjusted correctly. And yes.... the governor spring is set too sensitive. While that is not the issue, it's too far back on the governor arm. Third hole from the end if memory serves, but you need to check the manual. Move it to that spot BEFORE you calibrate the linkage.... but after setting the governor shaft if you didn't do that. |

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
