What type of governor? Have you checked your rack to make sure it's moving all the way to the full fuel position? Does the engine smoke? If so, what color, and does it burn your eyes?

if it's a new governor you mite need to adjust it; add or remove washers to governor spring to set max rpm or what you want it set at.
