Abstract: A governor for an engine has a fuel supply control mechanism with linearly adjustable yieldable stops that are positionable in at least two discrete positions by selectively actuated first and second coacting adjusting wedges. The cam-like wedges are disposed operatively adjacent the linearly adjustable stops and are slideably repositioned relative to one another when responding to the vehicle speed/direction control. Adjustment or repositioning of the wedges places the fuel control adjustable stops selectively in one of the two discrete positions to control the lug characteristic, torque rise and/or basic operating speed of the engine.
