Hi James, ( or anyone else )
If you are on board and have the same 75hp Volvo as I have, can you put on full revs in neutral and let me know what revs you reach ?
Thanks,
Ian and Judy, Pen Azen, SM 302, Athens

Ian, The diesel engine governors that I am familiar with mechanically limit the engine RPM to a preset level by reducing the throttle setting. If you are getting full revs. in neutral but not under load, I doubt that the governor is your problem.
I am sure that you will get more specific help here from others with the possible causes of your low revs.
Best of luck,
James
