Not sure what "adjustment" you"re talking about. I guess your "gas lever" is the carb throttle shaft arm but I"m don"t know what you mean by the governor being "completely open." Anyway...
You replaced the carb so you have the short linkage from a governor arm to the throttle shaft arm and you adjust that length to just fit without pushing or pulling or holding anything anywhere. You are not adjusting the carb or the governor, you"re just fitting the linkage.
If you"re talking about the hand throttle to governor linkage then that is adjusted so the governor arm reaches it"s maximum speed stop as the hand throttle reaches the last notch in the quadrant. The maximum speed stop is adjusted to 2200-rpm maximum engine speed after you get the engine running and the carb jets set. When the hand throttle is in the first and lowest notch, the governor arms are at rest and not being held in any position by the linkage from the hand throttle or the the linkage from the carb.
The governor spring is adjusted by bending the end of the spring so that there is no slack or preload on the spring. I get that spring length just right because if it"s more than a tiny bit off (1/128") the hand throttle will not operate in the first few knotches or the hand throttle will be engaging the governor all the time. More than 1/64" off and the hand throttle will not operate the governor in the bottom 1/4 to 1/3 of the quadrant. It"s tetchy.
