I took lots of pictures when I disassembled the Z-134 in my MF-50, but I have a problem I did not document. I replaced the camshaft ( worn out) and the camshaft gear( worn out). The crank gear did not look too bad and did not want to come off. When I put the new cam gear on, everything was nice and tight. When I went to reinstall the governor, I noticed there was a notch for it to engage the key on the camshaft; however, the key does not come out that far, so it does not engage. When I looked at the old cam, it looked as if (from the wear marks) that the key did not engage the governor there either. The slot looks the same. Any ideas?
Thanks
MM
