Default I need help!!!

I have a 12 valve with full forward afc housing the plate isnt all the way forward and when ever i hit high rpms the truck feels like it is defueling it self. I mean there isnt not power from like 2000 rpm and up i dont know if its the a starwheel adjustment or if its a governor spring problem? What can i do to get more power and fix the problem?

govenor springs will do the job, but you can tighten your stock spring and get a few more rpms out of it.

The spring goes right into the afc housing under the fuel plate. I don't know how to tighten it, but thats what the guy who did my first fuel plate did to my governor spring. But if you can figure out how to tighten it, or get a 3200/4k by this weekend we can learn how to do it together since I'll be watching my parents house in Belen this weekend while their gone
