Why are you trying to mess with the govoner? There should be no need to do this. Is your engine surging? If it is, its not the govoner, and you need to do a full carb cleaning. The governors job is to keep the engine running at your set engine speed. Messing with this device is a sure way of blowing up your engine because of a overspeed.
