Ok, I ended up shortening the rod from the throttle lever to the governor about an inch. Now the throttle lever engages the governor spring at about the "break over" point of the throttle lever spring. Definitely works a lot better. Now my throttle position doesn't exactly match the notches on...

I'm thinking I've got it figured out. The spring under the dash has a cam on it. I'm thinking that the linkage to the governor needs to be set so that when the dash spring gets to its "break over" point, it should be pulling on the large spring on the governor. Other wise, when the dash spring...

I wonder if this guy got his tractor fixed? He seems to be having the same exact issue. https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/threads/governor-issue-throttle-issue.368159/

On my tractor there is a plug that forces the linkage to have to come in from the block side. The cotter pin will be on the carb side. It won't go any other way. I ended up buying a book that describes the adjustment of the carb linkage. But it's not gonna be any help. Its says to adjust the...

Ok. I guess I need to buy a book or something that discusses the rod adjustments. With the tractor shut off, the throttle will snap wide open. So the flyweights shouldn't play any role. The thrust bearing (31) and delrin sleeve (32) all seem to be perfectly fine. The fork and spring all seem to...

The spring wasn't broken and all the parts seemed to be in good shape. I'm not sure where to go next. Maybe the linkage is way out of adjustment? Why would there be a spring forcing it to wide open? When the linkage from the throttle lever to the governor is disconnected, it snaps wide open with...

Thank you very much. I was afraid that springs and pieces would fall out when I removed the governor.

I recently had a tractor given to me from my grandfather's estate. It's a IH 424 that hasn't run since the late 90's. So far, I've put a fuel pump and tune-up kit on it as well as clean the carb. I've got the tractor running but the throttle linkage is acting weird. Everything is loose and free...
