This short video takes you though the static adjustment for a mechanical governor system off a Honda GX series engine. Briggs & Stratton and other manufactures will be simialr. Always complete the static adustment if the side cover has been removed or the throttle linkage or has been disassembled.

Very good video! When you get the principle it's the same on every engine which is controlled by a governor system.

Nice and simple explanation and I know how to adjust the governor on any brand of small engine. Thanks

Best video actually explaining the mechanics instead of foolish people just wanting to go fast or blow ot. By removing governor. I have these on woodslpitter s .and had trouble adjusting. Thanks ..believe my throttle is out missing a spring and the 2 parts on carborater the one side moves like it's stripped the non wide open side scree or plastic stop is OK. Top one thunk is bad

Why would you tighten it so that the throttle is stuck wide open? You can’t adjust the idle screw then
