    Governor housing toast?

    . So that was my take from the reply ....that the balls only contact the housing if the cones are worn out. I have always been one to try to figure things out so I pulled the working governor off my other 8n to compare the two! Sorry to say the looked exactly the same as far as the cones etc...
