Governor sensitivity example:
1.) You are blowing snow. You plow into a pile, the motor pulls down, but doesn't try to pick back up. Pulls down more, then starts trying to pick back up. Or, same scenario only it pulls down immediately and too far, then tries to come back. The governor isn't set to be sensitive enough.
2.) You are using your tractor out in the yard. Half throttle pulling a trailer. Every time you move the hydro handle the engine jumps up in RPM and really comes to life, then immediately calms back down after the initial movement of the tractor. Governor is set too sensitive.

Good example of how to tell if the governor is set too sensitive or not sensitive enough! So, in the future if I'm driving and hit the hydro lever to increase speed and it seems to delay a bit before the engine recovers, it needs to be more sensitive? So that would mean move the spring out one hole on either end? And vice versa, if I move the lever and it surges too quickly, I'd need to decrease sensitivity by moving it back inward one hole? Just want to make sure I understand correctly.
And on the carb, I planned on pulling it and giving it a good cleaning but it just confused me why it'd studder when I increase RPM slowly but snap to when I "give it the beans".
Didn't know if there was anything else I could check for that, thanks!
