No. The carburetor and the governor must be properly "timed" for proper operation. Making it longer will just change the position of the throttle lever when it runs away on you.
Taking the governor off is no big deal. I've done it a few times on a Super C which is the same engine.
You just need three different 1/2" (IIRC) wrenches to get at the various bolts. Shallow well socket, deep well socket, and combination end wrench.
Keep track of where the bolts come from.
Nothing is going to fall out, except maybe broken pieces of spring if that's the problem.
Usually the problem is either the thrust washer on the shaft, or the spring inside the housing. Just to be safe replace both.
To time the gov. and carb., TRACTOR OFF, unhook the clevis from the rod going to the carb. Push the throttle lever to full. Now adjust the carb rod until the pin will slide through the clevis and governor arm easily, with the carburetor pulled to wide-open throttle.
If it worked before you shouldn't have to adjust it much if any. If you have to adjust it a lot, STOP. Something is wrong, or you're doing something wrong.
