It is the maximum rpm’s the engine will develop. The engine will surge at governor speed since the governor will try to lower the engine speed and the accelerator is trying to increase it. A number over 75 is passing for STE/lCE-R test 13. tf the vehicle seems to be low on power while driving you have to check for other things which could cause this such as the transmission. To try a road test, accelerate the vehicle from 0 to a safe and reasonable speed on a reasonably level road. NOTE If the exhaust is not colorless it must be either white, blue or black.
