Title: (Optional) Evaluate operation of a governor.
Course: Small Engine Repair (20110-18) > Section: Repairing Governors

Evaluate the operation of a governor based on its stability (e.g., ability to maintain a desired engine speed without fluctuation) and sensitivity (e.g., percent of speed change required to produce corrective action on the throttle).

Process/Skill Questions:

- What happens as the load on the engine increases?
- When the centrifugal force on the flyweight decreases, what happens to the governor control spring and how does this affect engine performance?
