Default DS sputters like running out of gas at full throttle

Test drove a 97 DS today. Cart seems quick, really quick actually. Almost zero lag when pressing pedal. After about 3/4 throttle, it doesn't really seem to get faster, almost seems like it is getting throttled back. I'm guessing that's a governor/rev limiter issue, which I've read up about. But, the issue that happened is while having the pedal floored it seemed like it throttled back/coasted for a few seconds, popped, then start shuddering like it was running out of fuel. I tried to give it gas, and just kept sputtering (engine clicking on and off) to a stop. I checked if it had fuel, and there was plenty. Hit the gas and off it went.

Is this normal behavior for when the rev limiter is set wrong to allow higher speeds? If not, any ideas what might of happened?

Sounds like throttle cable, rod, and switches are adjusted incorrectly and its bouncing off the rev limiter to me
