    MEP 831A Governor Control Issue? (video)

    My understanding is that the spherical nut on the bottom of the rod should stay in contact with the black throttle arm.

    I would suggest adjusting the rod length per the TM and see if you can achieve 5/16" gap at no load and have it remain running. Maybe a tiny bit wider if the magnet grabs it.

    MEP 831A Governor Control Issue? (video)

    With my A5 in there the actuator will not lift off the magnet until you put S1 in START. The moment S1 goes into the START position my A5 sends a pulse to the actuator to lift the actuator off the magnet. If this is not happening, then it would appear the magnet strength may be set too high...

    1) I noticed the white Molex connector and wires for the actuator were getting caught on the actuator arm throughout the video. You need to reposition them, so they don't interfere with the actuator. 2) There is at least one A5 problem. The actuator should lift off the magnet the moment you...
