I slide the round tube back into the governor housing. I first had to clean some paint from between the rubber seal and tube so that the tube would break free and move back. This helped me to see that the square nub was lining up so as to go into the slot on the throttle shaft. In my case, I was able to do this without taking anything loose on the govener. Also while the carburetor is off, there are a couple of important things that I recommend should be checked on this type of govenor to carburetor hook up.
1] While holding the carburetor in your hand and looking down the carburetor throat, open the throttle plate to full throttle. Make sure that the throttle plate at full throttle does not go beyond straight up and down. If it does, Then the throttle stop probably has wear and should be corrected, other wise a slight rpm lose could result near full throttle rpm. Note that a throttle plate that is just hardly noticeable beyond straight up and down is probably no need for concern though.

2] I also recommend checking the end of the shaft coming from the govenor housing so as to make sure that the nub at the end of the shaft fits into the throttle shaft slot without any appreciable play. Excessive play here will result in an automatic and uncontrollable up and down throttling of the carburetor and unstable idle. Note that a few thousands of play is ok.

Thanks Ray in Pa.
