no I haven't but if I go 45 degrees more the pump will shut off
so I assume any more than that and it will still be shut off ?
May try a extra 20 degrees when I get a chance
Like i said mate, i wound mine until it wouldn't go no more and it was fine. I guess it's just luck if it will do it or not. Can't lose just trying? Again, mine took about 1 1/2 turn from stock until it was at full max. I hit 24 psi on my old K14 and it went like stink! Gotta risk it for the biscuit mate!
If you do wind it to max and it doesn't start, literally just knock it anti-clockwise a tad! It will help too if you remove the max rev screw (the screw the throttle arm hits when you're at full throttle) these help the engine to rev past 4,500 to 4,750 without the governor cutting the fuel.
Ill wind it in max and just remember how much I did so I can go back
Max revs screw is just wound all the way out so the throttle arm can't hit it but I left it in so as a spring can't pop off
Is there anyway to adjust the governor like on a Bosch so there's no limit ?
It might also be worth seeing if you can tension the throttle cable using the clip against the rubber bush. If you can pull it through a notch or two before it begins to up the idle. Gives you better throttle response and a little bit more travel on the throttle lever. The governor set up in a Lucas is controlled by the max fuel/throttle screw if i believe. I may be wrong on that but it's been a while since i looked into Lucas pumps. But by winding the max fuel and removing or winding out the max rev screw the pump seemed to rev a bit more freely for a bit more longer so i'd say it's almost like a governor mod.
