Mend Sears 143.366022 Riding Mower Engine

HOW TO ADJUST MY TECUMSI LINKAGE?

i have a sears 143.366022 ser.61500 riding mower
8hp tecumsi engine
i had to remove the carberator to replace the float and leaking gasket, i doing so i have to disconnect the linkage.
now i don't remember exactly how to hook it back up correctly.
i did not touch any of the adjustment screws,but we did bend the linkage gov. to throttle wire. i don't know if this part of my problem.
i thought all i had to do is hook the following;
wire from gov.lever to throttle lever on carb.
short spring from gov.lever to control lever
long spring from control lever to gov.rod(attached to choke/throttle assembly).
choke/throttle assmbly mounts ontop of throttle and choke with the lever in the choke notch.
I SURE COULD USE A PICTURE BETTER THAN WORDS.
I HAVE PARTS IN PLACE BUT ONLY CAN GET ENGINE TO IDLE, IF I TRY TO MOVE ANYTHING IT FLOODS OUT.
something is still wrong.
a step by step intruction may help.
if need be. please just call me toll free. 1-800-330-8791 al

The engine on your tractor is a Tecumseh TVM195-150134L
You can download the service manual for that engine by copy and paste this link into your address bar.

You will find the diagram you need under "Governors and Linkage" in that manual.
