Have you looked for any small springs laying around? Just one of them popping off, or breaking, which I have had happen, will allow the linkage to pull the other way and either speed the engine up, or slow it down. Spring are not painted and they will rust and break. You generator has a few years on it so it may very well be a busted spring.
That is the first thing I did seeing I could get it to slow down with moving the actuator with my finger. The governor is electronic so I don't think there are any springs. In the link that born to travel posted I did not see any.
