Replaced the governor rope on a 1970s Dover with a modern synthetic, and the overspeed test failed twice. The old steel cable passed fine. What gives?

Yeah, that synthetic rope thing is a known headache. @coleman.karen is right, the old steel just has a different feel to it.

Totally agree with you and @coleman.karen on this one.
