[Silly Little Cars] Governor

Fri Oct 10 10:49:55 PDT 2014

If you cut a wire, don't cut it too close to it's terminations. If the results aren't what you are looking for you can put the ends back together with a crimp splice. This is difficult if the cut is up against the module or frame, but very easy to do if in the middle of the wire. Also, never cut more than one wire at a time, especially if they are all the same color. Disconnect battery for this procedure too.

  I have a `99. The short slant panel on right side must be removed for access. Mine has a small open box velcroed on top of other parts. A tiny screwdriver will adjust turning clockwise to increase speed. There are no gauges or references to know how much to turn (lots). Good luck. Haven`t tried to cut it yet (am chicken) of no return.

  Hello,

  I have tried to find the governor several times and simply cannot.

  I too have been having trouble with the governor slowing me down.

  It has been kicking in lately at 20mph.

  Anyone in San Francisco that can help me out?

    Hello all,

    I drive a 2002 Go-4 and my governor seems to be having issues. The governor
    had been dialed up by a previous owner, but then I noticed the governor
    limiting my speed at a lower MPH and then lower still a day or two later..

    After some frustration and searching of the archives, I have located the
    governor. I found the tiny little screw and will try dialing it up. But I
    fear I may need to disconnect it entirely.

    Has anyone done this on a 2002? I would really appreciate detailed
    instructions if anyone can provide them.

    Thanks,
    Andrew

    Just disconnect the thing.  It will save you a lot of trouble.  See the attached that I save just for these occasions.

    I read previously and experienced also the loss of power and needed to dip the governor back up. It worked for a week and later for a couple of days. The trick was to use nail polish to fix it in place. But, I always carry a small screwdriver. 1999 Go4.

    The seller told me about the screw
