: : My throttle operation is very nonlinear. On the first notch of the throttle, the engine idles as it should. If I more to the second notch, the engine races ahead, effectively giving me two speeds - Idle and Very fast, with nothing in between. : : I spoke to a Farmall guy who said it is probably a spring on the governor weights. : : Last night I took the Governor apart and found out there are no springs on the weights, however I did notice a spring on the fornt inside going from the arm that comes from the trottle to the arm that goes to to the carb. It looked ok but I have no way of testing the tension. I did, however find that the bearing ring was shot and will need replacement. : : Here are the Questions? : : Could the Bearing ring be the whole problem? : : Could the spring be the problem? : : Are there supposed to be springs on the weights? : : Could my problem be something else? : : Thanks in advance for your knowledge. : : I have had about the same problem. : 1. The bearing is a thrust bearing,I have had the bearing to out and cause the weights to stick on the shaft and not allow the weights to advance forward. : 2.No there is not suppose to be springs on the weights. : 3.The spring inside should be alright. : 4. With the gov. housing off does everything move freely : Hope this information helps. I'm rebuilding a Super C right now. The free lenght of main spring is 1 15/16" inside of hook to inside of hook. Test load and lenght 15 1/4 lbs @ 2 1/8" IH dealers sell them for 5$ The lower spring which controls surging is 3$. Have fun.
