    grip the zip tie vertically with a pair of pliers and twist till tail around and around till it breaks off no sharp end left over to cut you up. learned this from an old electrician.

    In my opinion the correct way to bypass the governor is to do it internally. "bypassing" the governor as described will only work until the engine reaches a certain speed and activates the centrifugal weights which will overpower the spring and limit the revs anyway. But I will go ahead and try it anyway...

    On the OEM, (please pause the video at 1:40) the main throttle lever is NOT hooked to the carb. It is hooked to the governor which then IT controls the throttle based on the internal mechanism that limits rpm/response along with your input. Bottom line, the governor lever has final say so in the throttle/butterflys position. By hooking directly to the carb or the governor arm which directly hooks to the carb you have eliminated its ability to alter your input by giving you a direct connection. No governor action is capable when your right thumb is directly connected to the carb's butterfly. Those who say this won't work should put their dad's tools away, go back to their parent's basement and warm up a hot pocket.

    What do you do with the governor if you've installed an aftermarket carb that has the tradition slide? The stock carb and assembly above it are obviously gone, but the governor is still there. I am not getting fuel to the carb even through the new throttle works. I appreciate your advice/direction.

    You just left the governor mechanism engaged . Doing this will make the engine tends to reduce the throttle openning when it reaches the set value ( 3000 rpm ) and this tendancy will be opposite to the force of your throttle lever or handle what ever you use , so you will have oppsite forces acting against each other. I recommend taking out the governer lever and keep the spring attached to a fixed position instead so that the throttle gets back to idle position when you release it.

    instead of using zip ties try using a fishing sinker, the kind with a hole through the center. once on where you want it either crimp it on very tightly (temporary) or heat it with a small torch until it melts enough to make it permanent. it can still be removed by reheating it later and looks professional/factory made. bending the wire is now not needed.

    Me speaking from experience if you bypass the governor gear whether it’s a predator engine or not, you better be committing to oil changes every 60 drive hours because the governor gear is what protects all those small moving gears from exploding inside the casing so if you do the general maintenance on it at thehours that the owners manual says and keep making sure there’s oil in it then yeah it won’t blow up but if you’re buying it, and it will be great to do maintenance on it. Then your engine will yeet itself into existence after five years of not changing or more.

    @braddo1972 No, the governor stops it AT full rpm, in this case 2500 rpms. Anything over that would be over reving and you have a better chance of damaging the engine unless you install better engine components like a billet flywheel, crank rod, piston and I would also put in some better springs in it if you want to over rev it. And might as well do a cam at this point, you are in it deep enough. Better yet, just buy the ghost engine.

    That's another myth. Removing the governor does not and can not change throttle response. The other very popular myth is that you can't get full throttle with the governor and stock linkage. I get full throttle on my governed minibike engines. My engines would never perform the way they do if these were true.

But it is better to remove it all together. You don't want to rev it higher than the max rpm as stock. The magnets could fly off the flywheel, or the flywheel can explode in general. And If you don't believe me that's fine. I just hope you, your friends, or family don't get hurt when yours explodes.

    Doing it this way you will be fighting the governor weights passably causing the governor to break beings it is only plastic and eventually damage the engine. Ether use the governor all the way or remove all the way. I have been a auto mechanic for 39 years and the best way to do the throttle linkage is with the lever the way the engine was designed to work. The governor can be changed to govern out at a higher rpm. I have the governor on my hemi predator 212 at 6500 rpm I also balanced the engine so it doesn't rattle apart from being unbalanced and shaking.

    I watched this just to see how the springs and such are hooked up, thank you... my Predator still does not start but this video is helpful.. so must not be the way it is hooked up, but found I am missing one the springs that attaches to the throttle action on carburetor. My configuration is for a leaf blower, engine was put on a Giant VAC to replace an older Briggs engine, so my throttle cable comes in from the front side "pull starter" side and don't want the action to spring back automatically because it is not used like a gas pedal, like a go kart. Once throttle is set on a leaf blower, you want it to stay on by itself and control throttle with the cable / lever.

    These engines do not have oil pressure or an oil pressure switch. What you disconnected was the oil low switch. When the oil level gets low enough the switch will ground out the coil and shut off the engine. They get removed or disconnected for the minibike and go kart applications.
