How do I tune up my 8 hp B & S pointless & needleless engine?

Engine is on a 4.5 kw generator. Starts ok but runs rough. There is no needle adjustment on the carb and no points to adjust. New plug and new gas. The governor hunts. Any suggestions?
Thanks,

the springs to the governor are worn. replace them.

have you checked the air filter to see if it is blocked?
