horsefeathers 15 #1 Posted October 27, 2010 It's election season! Don't forget to vote! I say vote the sum bit@h out of office! When Jam Dawg (my son) was knee high to a beer bottle! We raced go-karts and they pitched the governors in the dirt! It's been along time I can't rember, but we had a speical linkage on the carb, and disabled the governor!Don't know if this is a good idea? Engines ran on alcohol that makes them run cooler! How they stay alive? Can you boot out the governor for short runs like... well... Drag Racing? I know ya' can't over rev these small engines or they'll kick out a rod! 3000, 3500 rpm w/ splash lube? Kabang! poof! Errrrtt! Is it over? Devistation Inc.! HORSEFEATHERS! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kelly 1,028 #3 Posted October 27, 2010 He's talking about the gov. on a engine, and not a good idea to remove the gov. the flywheel can come apart at RPM's above 3600 it may not the first or the tenth time but it only takes one time to ruin your day or kill someone.

puddlejumper 67 #6 Posted October 27, 2010 as slow as the flywheels are turning around the country it may be time for a come apart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Horse Rancher 0 #7 Posted October 28, 2010 yes you can turn these things loose but with the proper parts we run billet flywheels and billet connecting rods monster cams heavy valve springs ours in a pull will sing 7,000 rpm on the tach I have a friend with a command v-twin that makes 78 hp at 9200rpm on the dyno for more check out midwest super cub, vogel manufacturing, lakota racing and many others for kohler performance parts Jim :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
horsefeathers 15 #8 Posted October 28, 2010 He's talking about the gov. on a engine, and not a good idea to remove the gov. the flywheel can come apart at RPM's above 3600 it may not the first or the tenth time but it only takes one time to ruin your day or kill someone. That's right Kelly you read between the lines. I was thinkin' of removeing a gov. on a stock engine! Your answer seals the deal, not goinna' pull the pin on a grenade! Wanted some input before I go "Flirtin' with Desaster"! Horse Rancher, 78hp & 9200rpm! on a v-twin that's spinnin'! Thank you for the info!

wallfish 16,090 #9 Posted October 28, 2010 When I was a kid, we used to bypass the governors all the time for mini bikes and gocarts. They were usually little briggs motors, I think. We would beat the crap out of 'em but never had one explode. Good thing, I could've lost a right nut or something. We never thought about it or knew any better for that matter. Lucky nothin ever happened. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,285 #10 Posted October 28, 2010 Nothing wrong with your engine running on alcohol...I do it all the time...not sure if I run cooler though. Got a nice hood over my governor... :ROTF:I would not want to lose it. :thumbs: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
