Speed Control

My 1982 2 stroke runs fine around the yard but when I take it out on the street when it gets up to speed it starts to run rough and shakey.
I disconnected the cable on what I think is the govener just to test and it made no difference. The engine has plenty of RPMs with belt off and torque converter appears to be functioning. I think something is going on with driven clutch. This was a hand me down that has sat for a few years that I am just getting going. Is there a speed control as well as a govenor or are they the same thing?
Any help would be appreciated.
