Default 147 governor issues

I have pulled the engine out of my 147 to remove the balance gears. It ran fine prior to doing this but you could hear the balance gears clicking against the crank. While I had it apart I put a new piston and rod in it. Got it all put back together and it wants to race with just a little throttle. I have set the governor as per the kohler manual. Loosen the gov arm, move it to the full throttle position while hooked to the carb, turn the cross shaft ciunterclockwise and tighten. The gov spring and fadt idle stop are set just like my other caders as far as holes used and stop position. After a short trip around the yard I brought it back in and went through the adjustment procedure again. Upon start up, I cycled it a couple times and it seemed to be much better, but then it took off again. Any suggestions?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
