So if the governor went bad is this something I can replace? Do you know where I could find a replacement part?
I have not tried to start the car since getting it back from the shop. They recommended I had it towed home, since the engine was running away and smoking bad.
I took some pictures tonight but they are too big to upload. I noticed the hose connected to the top of the IP to the rear wasn't screwed on. I screwed it back on but haven't tried cranking it yet. I imagine the guys at the shop took that off while diagnosing the source of the problem. I doubt that was the original source of the problem. I'll try and start her tomorrow with that now screwed on and see if it changes anything.
Any suggestions as far as pinpointing the issue and finding replacement parts?
