Do you have the governor hooked up correctly?

[tom h.hill 10]

Yes I am pretty sure I do. What's the chances it's the fuel pump

How do I check the governer any how.

take the fuel line off the carb and crank the motor over to see if the fuel pump is working

+1 on that but hand turn it over because using the starter will a be dangerous because of the electrics and b will put fuel everywhere.

i won't worry about that, it doesn't produce a lot of pressure

if you are worried about a  gas squirting out put a piece of rubber hose on the line and run it in a can
