This genuine Briggs & Stratton governor link can be used as a replacement part for appliances operated by small engines, including lawn tractors, lawnmowers, snowblowers, leaf blowers, vacuums, tillers, and generators. The function of a governor link on a small engine appliance is to set the throttle to run at a steady speed. A governor link might have to be replaced if it withstands enough damage to prevent the governor link from keeping the throttle running and keeping the rest of the engine's governor assembly in place. Remember to always wear gloves when handling, repairing, and operating outdoor equipment. This governor link is compatible with the following brands: Midwest Engine, Briggs & Stratton, Toro, Cub Cadet, and Simplicity. This part is sold individually.

This governor spring is the part that helps control the engine speed on lawn and garden machines in load and no-load operating conditions. Governor springs can decrease or increase engine speed when a lawnmower or other tool is used on different types of terrain or material. When the governor spring isn't working correctly, the engine may run too slow or fast and create engine surges.Visually inspect the governor spring and linkage to see if the operator is working correctly. Do this by moving the throttle from idle to open while watching the governor spring's movement. If it is clockwise, the clamp screw needs to be loosened while the throttle is open before it is tightened again. If this doesn't fix the problem, the spring will need to be replaced. A screwdriver, socket, and other basic tools will be needed to make the replacement. This is a genuine OEM component that is directly sourced from the manufacturer. It fits a variety of lawnmowers, wood chippers, and pressure washers by Cub Cadet, Toro, Craftsman, Lawn-Boy, Simplicity, and Briggs & Stratton. It is sold as a single part.

The stop switch, sometimes called a kill switch, is triggered to stop the engine when the operator is no longer on the seat ,This is important for safety. If the stop switch is not functioning properly, inspect it for damage and replace it right away. Operating a machine without a functional stop switch can be dangerous. The stop switch is a genuine OEM part, and it is sold individually. The switch can work for many types of equipment including lawn tractors, lawnmowers, log splitters, wood chippers, pressure washers, and tillers. The replacement part is compatible with a range of brands, including Midwest Engine, Toro, Craftsman, Briggs & Stratton, Lawn-Boy, Murray, Snapper, and MTD.
