    FS651V No High RPM

    I've got it up to 3550 (no load) by my tach. I'm still puzzled why I'm limited RPMs after new rings installed. Valves were lapped and set during reassemble.

    FS651V No High RPM

    Thanks for that. I'm leaning toward me not getting the linkage right.

    FS651V No High RPM

    I have been mowing to break-in the rings and haven't got enough time (2 hrs) to change oil yet. I have checked the firing on both cylinders, though not under a load.

    FS651V No High RPM

    I tried the governor adjustment by the book. I'm evidently doing something wrong. I have the same problem. I hold the gov. arm and throttle lever on carb while tightening and throttle is wide open. When I start the engine and go to WOT, the gov. is pulling back from being full throttle. I still...

    Thank you very much for enlightening me on this 'new to me' type governor arm. I have this manual downloaded already but had not read thoroughly enough. I'll try to adjust this today.

    FS651V No High RPM

    I have just rebuilt this Kawi FS651V and all test good except I can't figure out the high idle on this engine. I have rebuilt a few FH engines and they are different. The governor arm has a link attached to it where the linkage connects.?? Moving the plate did not effect the RPMs. Adjusting...
