How to remove governor on a 3.5 B/S?

[Manco335]

I watched the video on this site and when i took this motor apart i didnt see the described peice.

Is it somewhere else on this one?If so where do i look?

Depends on engine. Some have air vane governors which depend on airflow generated by flywheel fins. This type is found directly under blower housing. Others are mechanical and are internal. These run off of crankshaft gear train.
Chances are your 3.5 has an air vane. Much easier to get to than the mechanical type.

How do i remove that?Do you have any instructional pics on how i may go about this?

Thanks

No instructional pics.
Just look at it carefully to see how it operates.
Usually a linkage rod runs from governor blade to carb butterfly.
This rod can be disconnected, then your throttle cable can be connected directly to butterfly. This effectively renders governor useless.

I cut the rod and its just hanging there as we speak will this be ok until i can dig into it further?

I don't think cutting is a good idea. It's normally easily disconnected. Clear pictures of what you have would help a lot.
