Doesn't seem excessivly fast to me, may be a little quick towards the end
of the run but the start seems about what ours runs at with the throttle
set to "Hare".

I think still a tad fast but an improvement.
Now that I know where the springs are located I think tomorrow I will take
the springs off and run it to see what happens and just manually position
the choke flap.
If I get it to run a bit better then I think that will tell me its the
springs possibly being too taut.
Thanks goodness I dont need to cut the grass til spring, gives me time to
mess around with it and get it right.

Problem now sorted...........

It was the metal plate (deflector) behind the governor blade that was bent,
although the governor blade still operated the choke flap it was being
restricted because it couldn`t go back far enough.

So thanks to you guys for all the input and time to read all this.

Much appreciated.
