aldiesel stated the GOVERNED speed was low. By adjusting the throttle cable will not change the governed speed. The maximum governed speed is controlled by the fly weights on the governor.

If the throttle cable is not adjusted correctly the engine may not be allowed come up to the speed that would kick the governor. However I have seen cases where the linkage was not set correctly and that will indeed change the governed speed up or down.
