Magneto ground wire

I solved the mystery on this issue finally .it was blade engagement switch that was acting up and replaced it.Now it's good, tried it out and no issues.But l have another one that was using and it reviving up high all of a sudden.could be the governor inside gone bad.thank you for helping me on Snapper.
Yes
Uncontrolled high revs is the governor
Hopefully the arm has just come loose so reset it .
Don't let the engine race because they will trow the con rod little ends as the can rods are only just strong enough to resist the low speed tensile stress on the little ends.

Open the engine up and replaced governor?
 
Hold the throttle plate near closed with your finger. See if the governor linkage is trying to CLOSE the throttle plate at high revs.
