The way I was told, was that most every governor has a spring and a set of flyweights. The spring is compressed to give fuel to or speed up the engine, as that happens the flyweights spread open causing the linkage to the carb to shut the fuel down or slow down the engine. If you watch those old governors on the steam engines they are never at a steady state, they are always adjusting to keep the engine at a given RPM. This would be where the thottle is positioned and in turn gives a preload on the governor spring. In other words the weights and spring are constantly working against each other to maintain a steady RPM.
