Sanding it would make it a little more sticky, but it's not a full pull because only the edges are grabbing on the weights.. They will wear in.. That is just how the maxtorques work.. The spring is wrapped inside the back 1/2 of the weights, so they are allowed to tip just slightly.. It's just because it's all new..
I think Jeep is actually on the rite track with the engine might not be getting up to speed.. If your throttle isn't pulling the system enough, if the system is not dialed in rite, if the spring is not in the rite location.. The engine can't get to speed, because the governor is set too light..
The engine can't get the rpms it needs..
Those engines honestly will go like hell if ya let it.. NO GOVERNOR they will spin like a son of a bitch, but thats rough on stuff..
However, you CAN set the governor so it's pulling %90 harder than it's supposed to, and it makes a shit ton of difference.. I would MUCH RATHER have an engine that MIGHT blow itself up if held wide open (and be able to let off) than ALWAYS be twisting the damn thottle until the cable is ripping off the motor, and STILL not even get the engine barely above an idle...
Setup your throttle system.. so the throttle on the carb BARELY SHUTS when the engine is not running.. Like, if it's not running, you hit the gas, let back off, and the carb only goes back to 1/2 shut
hmy:
Then when the engine starts, the governor will pull the carb back to idle speed..
But you want to make sure you are getting ALL of your throttle pull, being transferred to the motor... If you have to turn the grip 1/2 before the carb actually does anything, the governor is way to light....
About any engine has adjustments you can ad tension without having to mess with your cable... If it won't adjust out.. adjust everything back to the lighter side, THEN reattach your cable with more tension, and start going through your adjustment again..
