Hi all,

My mower hadn't been running well, low power, and I recently gave it a service and replaced the governor springs. Now it sounds like it's about to take off there's no adjustable throttle on it.

Is it a problem to run the mower like this? Apart from it being really loud.

What are my options? The new springs are a lot tighter than the old ones, could I just stretch them out a bit? Would that allow the motor down some?

Cheers
