See I took the rod out that the governor bracket connects to. Ground the rod the gear went on flush. Only thing I forgot is the rod that went through the case. Gotta tap and plug it.

I have this engine on a go kart and replaced the carburetor and worked but the governor seems to stick and makes the engine run near full throttle(w/o throttle cable connected). When I adjust the carb idle down it will decrease slightly and go dead or throttle up high again and stick most of the time. Will removing the governor and adding the spring correct this? I thought the governor was required.

It sounds like you may just have a spring issue. There is a factory spring that helps the throttle return to idle. Make sure that is still connected or connected to the correct spot. A governor is not required, it just limits how high an engine can rev. Removing the governor wouldn’t fix the issue because your problem is the linkages/spring not letting the throttle return. I’d also check your throttle cable. Sometimes they can corrode and stick causing the spring to not be strong enough to return the engine to idle.

That exhaust sounds awesome! I have this same exact engine where do I get the exhaust?

I made it myself. They sell 1 inch exhaust kits on eBay and Amazon with a couple different pieces and bends for around $35.

Could you share a link to the exhaust kit? I have same engine on my thunderbird and want to install a header as well. For the carburetor I’m using a vm22 with a 212 intake manifold bolted to the stock one. Little janky but runs great.

@@srcobra50 It looks like they don’t sell the kits anymore. Searched for it and ended up going to purchase history and it looks like it’s no longer available. They used to be all over eBay, I bought at least 5 of those kits.

I just used a plain old spring that I got in a variety pack of springs at harbor freight.

I got one off of Amazon for like $12. Just have to make sure the barb for the fuel line is the style you need. They have one with a straight barb and one with a 90 degree barb.
