Varying the governor setting in an IC engine

Varying the governor setting in an IC engine Correct Answer Does not vary the governed range of speed in which engine runs

Governor is a mechanical device which controls the speed of the engine by supplying fuel on varying load condition. When there is less load on engine speed of rotation of spindle increases and more centrifugal force acts on flyballs throwing them outwards thus sleeve moves upward and fuel supply is decreased.
