How to set the governor on a Briggs Stratton 18 hp lawn tractor engine?

Setting the governor on a mower engine depends on whether it is a mechanical or pneumatic governor and the type of control that is used. The governor plays a very important part by keeping the engine from overspeeding and causing possible damage. I suggest you check out a book on Briggs engines at your local library and find the procedure for setting the type of governot equipped on your engine.

Where is Briggs and stratton engines made?

Originally from when Briggs & Stratton started business in 1919, the engine's were built in Milwaukee Wisconsin to 1985 and well into the 1990's. Recently great production is very little from were Briggs & Stratton was originally started. These day's there is great activity of Briggs & Stratton parts from China/Japan and Briggs & Stratton engine blocks being casted in Mexico. Truley a great devistation to a once GREAT engine. Which is why alot of people like myself will no longer recommend a Briggs & Stratton engine. Today your best bet is Kohler (still U.S. produced), Kawasaki or Honda.

Briggs and stratton engine over idles runs so fast that oil spits out can only be shut off by pulling spark plug wire?

The governor is stuck, causing the engine to over-speed and not return to regular idle speed. You can check the travel of the governor by moving it back and forth with your finger - there is not much travel, but there should be some. Check for debris or accumulated gunk at the lever where it joins the engine and clean it well. Ensure that the engine oil is clean and at normal level. A stuck governor will make the engine over-speed so fast that it can cause the piston rod to break. Good luck.
