How do I make my push mower run faster?

Question

I was mowing the other day and all of the sudden my mower was running much faster and more powerful then after a lap or 2 it was back to usual... I want it like that all the time... is there any way to supe up my mower?

Answer 1

yea if it depends on what kinda carb it is if I'm not mistaking then its probably a float carb and can be adjusted

Answer 2

The mower speed is controlled by the governor spring. It is set for the best performance of your motor .Increasing the RPMs will make it run hotter and longer periods may burn it up. You can shorten it up and raise the RPMs but be care-full.

Answer 3

probably had something stuck in the governor. there are things you can do to increase speed n power but id have to know the specific engine on it.

Answer 4

the grass was probably uneven, the mower has to work harder when the grass is taller.
