Governor System Of The Carburettor; Adjusting Of Accelerator Cable - GGP WBE 0701 Workshop Manual

General information
The carburettor governor system uses a engine shaft linkage fitted on a support fixed to the left-hand side of
the engine, completed by a counterweight device, driven by the camshaft, and thus sensitive to changes
in the engine's revolution pattern depending on load.
The force of the counterweights, transferred to the control lever, tends to shut the main carburettor butter-
fly, in opposition with the spring that would keep it open; the balance between the spring loading and the
thrust of the counterweights on the control lever modifies the butterfly opening and adapts the flow of fuel
to the engine so that the revolution speed is kept constant with engine load changes.
