auger repair question

[gbc]

I have a mag2000. I took it apart to put a new rope on it and cleaned the carb while I was at it. I didn't notice how the spring that attached the throttle to the carb was hooked up and can't find any diagrams online. Anybody know off the top of their head?

I know where the spring hooks to the throttle arm, just not sure where on the carb. The carb lever that opens and closes the carb has one small hole in it, but doesn't seem to work there. When hooked up it holds the carb open.

The spring has a circle on one end which attached to the throttle arm and the other end has a little L shaped hook that should attach somewhere else. Hopefullly this makes sense.

Give Strikemaster a call, and I'm sure they'll be able to help you out.

Sounds like it may be the governor spring.Check near the pull rope cover for the governor plate it has a little arm that comes down off of it.I had a the same issue and chose to leave it off for increased rpm and quicker holes.(down side is when will my auger blow to pieces?)

Thanks guys, I do have an email in to Strikemaster as well. Hopefully they will have an answer. I'm pretty sure the spring hooks up with the throttle control, otherwise there is no way to open the carb. If I don't here back from Strikemaster maybe I'll take a picture and post.

I did a search on google for the mag2000 model # TMO49XA, and there are some search results that have the blown parts view to see how it all goes together.
