My governor is new. My carburetor is new.

I have put up with this because my 8N Ford runs great and starts perfectly, but it is a nuisanc.

When I am mowing or doing anything, even letting the clutch out, if the tractor is under load the governor waits an extra second before it responds. When this happens I have to press the clutch or the tractor will die. I let the clutch back out at the same time the governor lets the tractor throttle up and everything is fine. If forget to “do my little dance”, then the tractor will die. Do I need to add or remove shims from the governor? Is this a linkage problem? Thanks.
