Let's back the truck up a minute. A govenor does both of these things. A govenor's function is simply to control engine speed. As stated in other posts, there are several types of govenors. Essentially, the operator will set a speed at which the engine will run. As load increases or decreases, the govenor will attempt to compensate, and bring the engine back to the set speed. If load increases, speed will begin to decrease, then the govenor will cause the throttle plate to open, or increase fuel delivery. If load were to decrease on the engine, then the engine will tend to increase it's speed. In this condition, the govenor senses this, and causes the throttle plate to close, or reduce fuel delivery. Govenors come in a variety of types, including; mechanical, pneumatic, hydraulic, and electronic, with electronic being the most precise. Take care.
