Re: 35 HP VANGUARD IDLES HI This screw will lower your idle. It's located behind the front plastic housing next to the choke tab. You will need to drill a hole thru the cover to get to it.
As for your wide open throttle rpms......you need to see what they are out of the water. Check it out and repor back.

Re: 35 HP VANGUARD IDLES HI Yeah....turn your governor adjustment screw clockwise until your wide open neutrol rpm's are about 4100-4200.

Re: 35 HP VANGUARD IDLES HI Nice pics Craig.
The tab on the white spring should be just where you have some tension on it. That spring keeps up the idle to keep it from dying when you put it in gear under load.

Re: 35 HP VANGUARD IDLES HI Before you go messing around with the governor spring, I would check to make sure that your cable hasn't slipped (back) or see if your actually getting full throttle out the cable/ throttle lever. Seen that happen quite a few times.
