Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): tecumseh 6.5 hp ohh more rpm, yerf dog 3203, tecumseh engine


Question
I have a yerf-dog 3203 that has been a good cart, but I still want to increase
my power.  I decided that lowering the gear ratio is the best thing to do for
climbing power, but i do not want to sacrifice top speed.  I was wondering
what I could do to raise the engine's top rpm. I considered removing the
governor, but I know that it is there for a reason and do not want to tear up
my engine.  Is there anything else that I can do?  High flow exhaust? some
other adjustments?  Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks.
John.

Answer
Hello John:

Sorry for the Delay. High Winds have Downed Trees and my Electric is Out and the Darn Generator Coil went Bad. lol  Its been a Fun Past 2 Days. Shorten the Spring that Pulls the Governor Arm. By Shortening the Governor Control Spring, you Put More Tension on the Governor and the Engines RPMs will Increase. Since this is a Tecumseh Engine, I have a PDF Site Addy that May Assist you Also. http://www.tecumsehpower.com/CustomerService/BSI.pdf  .
