Re: (ET) C-185 Speed Issue

So it's probably one of the throttle switches. Taking apart the pedal switch box is pretty easy, and harold has the right switch for the job. They do tend to disintegrate over time.

  Yours is probably a B-145 which does have that switch...

Hello Harold and all ETers who replied.

With the transmission in neutral and pressing the speed pedal to the 
metal, I only hear two clicks.
Pressing the cruse button increases speed.

The SN plate lists 5700 and 115195.  The 5700  is questionable since the 
plate is painted over.

Thanks again to all,
Paul

Could be the 2A switch in the speed control. How many speeds do you have 
left?

HI All ET EXPERTS,
My C-185 has performed almost flawlessly since 1985.??
But today when mowing, the top speed [pedal to the metal] seemed slightly 
slow.??I pressed Cruse button and speed increased??

Could the high speed pedal switch be bad or is this a diode issue or other 
issue?
Any advice is welcome.
Thanks,Paul Holzschuher?Cincinnati
