A few years ago my Dad aquired an M that had been used a lot but taken very good care of. The Governor was completely wore out. I had an H engine that I bought that had the original cast iron psitons in it and the original governor hanging on the side. I was pretty tight yet. We changed the gear. We had enough parts around to change the top with very tight parts. The tractor is running stock 1600 high idle RPMs. We put it on the dyno and it has 55hp at 540 pto. When we pull it down to 500 pto it only goes up to 56hp. I have never seen a Farmall hit max hp at 540 PTO. As far as I can tell the M & H governor weights are identical. I have never seen a factory governor perform this well. This caused me to go Hmmmmm. Are the factory Governors that good when they are new? Is the difference in the spring? I am attempting to understand these governors better so any help is greatly appreciated.
