Expanding a bit on Jim’s post: If the engine reaches full RPM with the governor handle pulled/held all the way back, the governor is adjusted correctly. The handle tension problem then involves the governor control rod adjustment.
The governor control rod is the rod runing from the handle at the steering wheel to the bell crank over the manifold. The end of the rod is fitted with a “governor control rod equalizer” - an elongated C-shaped metal clip containing a pair of springs and a swivel nut. And yours is likely is out of adjustment.
Anyway follow Jim’s procedure to adjust the swivel nut in the equalizer – your problem should disappear.
