4. Verify that the governor has been set correctly.
With the linkage still retained in the “Full
Throttle” position (Step 2), unsnap the bushing
clip, separate the linkage from the bushing, and
remove the bushing from the lever. Follow Steps
3 and 4 in ‘‘Checking the Initial Adjustment’’.
5. Reconnect the dampening spring into its
governor lever hole from the bottom. Reinstall
the bushing and reattach the throttle linkage. See
Figure 5B-34. Reattach the governor spring in the
marked hole.
6. Start the engine and allow it to fully warm up
and establish closed loop operation
(approximately 5-10 min.). Check the speed
settings and adjust as necessary, first the low idle
speed, and then the high-speed setting.
Troubleshooting
General
When troubleshooting a problem on an engine with
EFI, basic engine operating problems must be
eliminated first before faulting the EFI system
components. What appears to be an EFI problem
could be something as simple as a fuel tank with
debris in the bottom or a plugged vent. Be sure the
engine is in good mechanical operating condition and
all other systems are operating properly before
attempting to troubleshoot the EFI system.
Troubleshooting Guide
