hey guys this is something weired to ask on this site but i do not know where else to go!!

I need to know a few parts for my visual small engines test tomorrow, so if anyone knows gas lawn mower engines and could help me out that would be great!!

Hopefully my poor descriptions will do ok (p.s. i do not know what model engine it is)

Parts:
1. It is a long tube that runs out the back of the carb....i thought it was the fuel line but teach says thats not the right name....

2. it is a plastic paddle type thingger that is attached to the coil and rubs up againt the fly wheel...i have no idea what it could be called

3.The spring located in the oil control ring....i think it is the expander spring?

...if anyone can help me out with this by tomorrow that would be great...and again sorry for the horrible descriptions!

Anyway...try to google lawnmower engine...especially if you go to an actual brand site and look for replacement parts...they will all be labeled for you ;)

#2) Govner - this device is used to govern the speed of the engine to keep it constant under load.

The more air blown out by the flywheel the harder it pulls the govner, which adjusts the throttle to speed up or slow down the engine based on load.

i wouldnt use my answer verbatim, as it may not be 100% accurate, but thats how i describe what a govner does.

1. Overflow
2. Governer
3. If you mean the bottom ring on the piston, that would be the "wiper"
