Govenor

[mike bar]

Any one have a sure fire way to tell if a govenor is working properly. I can't tell if my motor is weak or if it's the govenor. I just ordered new springs and bushings as the bushings are gone and are not factory springs on there now. The throttle spring is hard on the wrist if driving any distance.It's huge compared to the one in manual.

Any picture at all would do because i'm pretty sure this is not correct. Anyone?

your throttle setup is totally different then my kt-17.will try to find a picture to see if they are supposed to be the same.

Thanks Plott, I have that printed off. Just don't know where to hook the springs up. There are three of them, and i only have the one which pulls the throttle back
