The governor is fixed and worked like a charm! the tab did need to be pointed down when installed and then I went through the procedure to set it.

years ago I helped write a manual for a military truck (PLS) they built. I did the engine section. when ever they asked what the torque is on a bracket or a cover I'd say common sense tight. their response was always "We assume their is no common sense in the military"

realistically there's only 2 things you need to torque, rod and head. the rest are tight enough you don't strip them out and tight enough they don't come loose , I've been turning wrench's since I was 10.

If I followed the Kohler manual I wouldn't be making the horsepower we are

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
