Export threadThe governor should try to reduce the RPM... a spring tries to open the throttle and increase the RPM...
Is it possible you have some of the linkage on upside down or in the wrong place... You should not have interference with the governor travel... :smile:KennyV

i looked on you tube and all the linkage is on right ,i guess my question is the hair pin clip that holds the governor shaft on the outside of the casing hits a cast part of the motor not allowing it to move enough is my guess but i just thought the clip can go on 4 ways :laughing: i will try that when i get home
