The weights must be free on their pins, but not loose or wiggly. The ball thrust bearing must be smooth, and the races need to be smooth where they touch the rock shaft prongs. Can the output (to carb) linkage be moved by hand when the engine is running? Jim [Reply]   [No Email]

Just grasping at straws. Bud [Reply]  [No Email]

When I pulled the gear out and reached in the distribtor drive will move a little but not much. Any ideas on how to get the shaft bumber and spring out? By the way thanks a bunch for all the help.

The Bumper spring assembly might be easiest to remove when it is out of the tractor. Then (as far as I can see, it will require some solvent, and careful manipulation to get it free. jim [Reply]  [No Email]

I don't see it in my parts book. Funny thing is this problem happened after the tractor had set for a month or two. Everything was fine when I shut it down. Its kind of like a catastrophe failure versus a worn bearing. Would it make sense that the fact that the shaft bumper will not extend could allow the pinion and everying thing attached to slide forword causing my problem??? [Reply]  [No Email]

It is troublesome in many high hour tractors and replaced, I do believe it is available. I would sure get the bumper operational first, to see if that is the issue. Jim [Reply]  [No Email]
