It will, I've had it on plenty of carts I worked on...but yes it takes a while maybe years. I've seen plenty of old carts that puked a cable not long after modding the governor, I have no doubt about it. If you feel a lot of pressure at high speed it will eventually break much faster than usual. Seen it with a lot of G1 and G9. Stock carts rarely toss that cable. On the other hand its easy to put a spring on, and not that hard to replace the throttle cable. If you want to still have a governor the spring is an ideal way to go, so up to you.

Main reason why I think the cables are breaking is because they are not adjusted correctly after putting the spring in.

This happened to me, the cable seemed shorter after the install and when you gave it gas it had to much tension (like the cable was stopping before the pedal was fully compressed). If you adjust the cable correctly it will be fine. Less stress on the cable.

But made a big improvement on mine, only 23mph with stock tires though. Not bad from 17mph.

The ones I saw break simply had the stock nut all the way in on a G9 or a longer screw on a G1.
