Hi all. Engine idles normally. Advance throttle about two or three notches, and RPMs steadily climb to approx 1500 and stay there. I've checked linkages, etc. and everything seems normal. Does this sound like a governor spring, if so how intensive is it to replace. Im mechanically adept, just never had to work on a governor before.
Thanks in advance.

From your symptoms, I would guess that the thrust collar that the flyweights act against is not moving freely on its shaft, possibly due to rust build up.

I just got done with the governor on my B, which has a very similar, if not identical governor to your C. I found there was not much lubrication gets into the governor, and rust got a pretty good foothold. Check your linkages first, and if they check out, take off the governor, clean and lube the flyweights, the thrust collar, replace the thrust bearing (less than 5 bucks), check the spring (mine was rusted thru), check the rocker shaft for free operation.

Curt: Lets start out by saying that I am not an expert. We did take the gvnr. off of my 240 utility (Same engine) a couple of weeks ago. My problem was that the Engine was not being governed and at times not responding to the hand throttle. What we found was the linkage was catching on both the carb and engine block behind the carb. ALWAYS CHECK LINKAGE FIRST you might have a similar problem. The gvnr is easy to take on and off. There is a spring inside that may be off that would explain your unusual problem. I would also look at an IT book for a picture of the thing so you can see where the spring is suposed to be. (but the thing looks pretty bullet proof to me) Let me know if you need a Fax of that page in my IT manual. good luck Mechanic"n
