I think it might have been on the Husqvarna thread concerning a Husky 2100 CD Some model HS carbs have a governer which is located on the carb as a slotted head brass screw .How it works is when the vibrations reach a certain level a ball inside it opens a secondary fuel channel which allows more fuel to get in, enough it slows the engine down .Often called a "rattle ball".The method I use is to punch a piece of gasket material the same size as the hole then screw the gov. back in which blocks off the channel. BTW after much consternation I replaced that carb with an after market unit that did not have a rattle ball .Runs and starts real good now .For more info you might Google Tillotson's web site and look at the model HS and how it works .Very informative as are most manufacuters .Fact another option might be You Tube .Keep at you'll figure it out .. I remember you and another member were discussing how to modify the HS so it can be tuned normally using the high speed screw jet, but cannot seem to locate that thread. Am I remembering correctly, and is there a way to shoot me a link to that thread if I am? Thanks in advance
