Abstract
An override speed control mechanism for an internal combustion engine. The override speed control mechanism comprises an engine control lever connected to a governor control arm by means of an over-center linkage mechanism so that further rotation of the engine control lever beyond the high speed range into the choke range acts to reduce tension on the governor spring. The mechanism also includes a governed idle whereby the position of the governor control arm can be adjusted in the idle position to set the tension on the governor spring.
