Hi all,

I've got a couple of simple questions regarding the knobs/levers on my dash that I thought this group would be able to quickly answer.

2) Oblong pull handle to left of key slot with "governor" on it. When pulled while engine running - it revs up the engine. Again what is its purpose.

Thanks,

Ray
