It is all taken apart right now because i've been messing with it...

I have read and studied the procedure for making the initial setting of the governor.

I just don't understand exactly what all is happening, and what is actually limiting the rpm on the engine.

See the attached picture :

As seen in the RED box, my linkage and spring looks exactly like this when together. I set it like this per the FSM description

As seen in the BLUE box, this " high speed stop" bracket is gone form my tractor. Is THIS the limiting factor?

As seen in the GREEN box, this is no present, as I have a throttle control cable coming from the dash board instead.


Maybe this clears it up a little...

If the bracket is was ultimately controls the RPMs then that's my entire problem, but I dont think so.

The way I understand it, the weights on the governor gear directly action the pin in the end of the gear to physically close the throttle when the red line RPM is reached? Right? This doesn't happen, and the tractor will run out way past 3600. I saw 4400 flash the other day just trying to see if I wasn't allowing it to get up to speed enough or some thing...
