As far as I know gas engines don't have governor's. You've probably allready verified this, but I'll mention it anyway; the manual choke should keep the choke flapper standing straight up, If not the choke could be blocking the inlet air causing the rich mixture and I've sure you've check out the air inlet and air filter. The Carb. internal passages are could plugged up. (some times you can get lucky by cleaning it out with carb. cleaner while the engine is running at fast idle) You'll probably have to disassemble it and throughly clean all the pathways. I'd also, put a vacuum gauge on it and see how much vac it pulls at idle and 1800 RPM. And it would be a good idea to get a base line on the compression for future references. Maybe you'll get some more opinions form Dave..
This thread, so far...
