Author Topic: 1.6 NA hangs after letting off throttle (Read 1887 times)

Here's what's going on-
I resealed my pump, did the gov. mod while I had it apart. If I rev up to 1/4 or 1/2 throttle in neutral, it takes a little while to return to idle. If I'm running 2nd gear up to maybe 3/4 throttle, it sometimes run away, but I can kill it by shutting the engine off.

Is this from the governor mod? I'm about to un-do it and see if it helps.

Thanks,
Devan

Did you shim both springs or just the main spring?

Sounds like it could also be the full load screw. Try backing it out a bit first. It can be done with the pump still on so it would be best to try it first.

iirc, I shimmed the smaller spring.

I'll try backing the screw out more.

thanks.
