im waiting for some new gaskets and a carb to come in and then ill try thisDisconnect the clutch/belt and the throttle cable so it is just the engine. tell us if the engine will idle or go to a high rev
This is what I was thinking.....These engines are designed to run at 3600 RPM when in start postionChoke is closed throttle plate closedyou move it to run the Gov takes over and open wide open until it starts and then the Gov adjusts engine speed to constant 3600 RPM. When it takes off engine is loaded RPM go down Gov opens throttle to gain RPM. You have to override the govenerwith a throttle setup so it runs at below clutch engagement speed.
honestly guys i don't know how to bypass the governor. i'm a noob to this stuffThis is what I was thinking.....
Did you take the motor out of the box, slap it on and then start it?
Did you try this .What type throttle control set up .
Hold the throttle butterfly closed with your hand , then open the choke .
