De-governed Predator Throttle Linkage

Ғылым және технология

This is how I configure the 212cc / 6.5HP Predator motor from Harbor Freight after removing the governor.

    El mejor video que se ve el mecanismo del carburador claramente Todos los que había visto antes eran basura.

    Jamie Dundas, I’m not home to see it right now but is it swivel nut not being used on the engine or is it being used by something else?

    I have a predator 224 that just started cutting out and backfiring at wide open throttle. Any suggestions?

    So you still have the governor right?

    The governor gear is still internal, so therefore still engaged.. the plastic gear only allows the engine rpm to reach a certain point.. no matter how you set up your throttle lever or where or where not you put the throttle return spring.. it still will not climb pass a certain rpm..all of these mindless throttle set ups just help with achieving the highest rpm allowed with the governor still engaged.. most people, swear their karts are now faster by doing these simple configurations, but in truth, all that you are gaining is quicker acceleration.. but nothing gained on top end..

    Well I would agree with you IF the linkage still goes from the governor arm to the throttle linkage but without the linkage being attached the governor doesn’t do anything except float around. The gear inside the engine doesn’t tell the engine what do but rather the engine is telling the governor what do. There are weights inside the white governor gear that when at operating rpm the are thrown out therefore pushing on the governor arm and in turn pushing the throttle open more. If the linage is taken off of the governor arm then the governor no longer controls the rpm of the engine. As long as the governor adjustment screw is backed out all the way or removed completely and the throttle linkage is hooked up correctly then the foot pedal or twist grip fully control the throttle. Without the governor arm hooked up you are free to rev the engine as much as you even to the point of detonation. That’s why on some kart videos like a couple from cars and cameras they have their foot all the way down maxing out the governor but can still proceed to reach back to the carb and get more rpm out of the engine weather the governor likes it or not. Hope this helps.

    asphalt cowboy. You must be new to this because what you said is absolutely incorrect. With the governor linkage removed from the carb the spinning governor gear itself has no way to restrict or regulate RPM and does nothing but spin. The engine in this video is set to govern to 3600 RPM at full throttle brand new out of the box. After what he did in this video the engine is no longer governed at all and will reach more than 5000 RPM and climb until valve float starts somewhere in the 5000 RPM range. The engine would run much higher RPM than that with upgraded valve springs, re-jetting, etc. Acceleration should be the same governed or ungoverned. The governed engine will just stop pulling around the maximum governed RPM. And this is far from new information. People have been manipulating these linkages for decades to get higher RPM and top speed..
