Haven't used the California lawn mower since last season, and, well, after I pulled on the Honda cord a few dozen times with the choke held open, it finally started.
But, then, for the next half hour (as I mowed the lawn), it revved like crazy, way high.
Looking at the lawn mower, I can't see anything wrong with the cable operation.
The filter is pristine clean (the mower is only one season old). The cable moves smoothly. The choke moves smoothly. There doesn't seem to be any adjustments for the carb.
So, I wonder: What would make the darn thing rev like crazy?
