I read in your post that you replaced the lever and quadrant. Are the teeth in good shape? If you advance the lever, the teeth should hold in place, even in the farthest position. The lever does have a bit of tension against it as you are fighting the governor spring. If you advance the throttle to full, and the engine operates normally, other that the lever slipping back, then the issue is with the lever and quadrant, not the governor.
The teeth need to be crisp and defined, as well as the catch on the lever. If the teeth are rounded, or the catch on the lever has a groove worn in it, you will have a hard time getting the throttle to stay put. Take a dremel tool and reshape the teeth. If you have a welder, touch up the groove on the lever and shape back to a nice crisp point. You may also have to take a crecsent wrench and twist the lever around a bit to get the catch to properly mesh up with the teeth. I have done this a number of times with great results. You have to get in the habbit of pushing the lever out, advancing the throttle, and ensuring the teeth enguage before taking your hand off the lever. Same with pulling back, don't let it slip back to idle or you'll round off the teeth over time and have the same issue over again.
Good deal with the clutch, you are more than welcome, I'm glad it worked out.
