Hi,
I just registered to the forum but use to visit it very often.
I have an old Honda 501 Rototiller that worked perfectly, until I replace the engine for a new Honda GC160.
After replacing the engine, I notice there isn't a throttle on it and it runs at 3500 rpm all the time. The adjusting screw don't make any difference (either the governor's and the jet screw) and when the clutch lever is disengaged and I set the gears (any) the rotors start spinning before the engagement. The belt and the pulley are fine. I believe the engine is too accelerated and don't know how to adjust it.
If anybody has a hint of what might be going on, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks!
