    Governor issue on Farmall 100

    Replaced the surge spring and went through all my adjustments. Got it idling right at 450-500 rpm’s and no surging when given throttle. If you go from idle to full throttle, it surges 1 to 1 1/2 times before leveling out. I did adjust the speed adjustment bolt on top of the governor also and...

    Governor issue on Farmall 100

    The thrust bearing is in good shape as you described. I’m going tomorrow and get the springs and I’m hoping the bumper spring helps with my issue. Thanks for all the info.

    Governor issue on Farmall 100

    The link where the connecting rod connects to the carb was positioned too far forward and not allowing enough room to connect the butterfly shaft to the rockshaft arm of the governor. The kit I used to rebuild the carb came with a new shaft so I didn’t examine the old shaft very close. The only...

    Governor issue on Farmall 100

    Over the weekend I got the carb rebuilt and I do believe the shaft on the carb had rotated or moved; we now have space to connect the rod to the governor rockshaft arm. The length is still a little tighter than before, but it will work. I replaced the governor spring (5) while I had the governor...

    Governor issue on Farmall 100

    My dad mentioned the same thing and we wonder if somehow the link where the governor rod connects to the carb has rotated "out of sync" and causing the issue. I took the carb off the tractor first before I even touched the governor and it is a tight space to be disconnecting the rod from the...

    Governor issue on Farmall 100

    Thanks for all that information. I'm definitely going to look into the bumper spring while I have the governor housing off. What you described above about the throttle being unpredictable and running at higher speeds than the throttle was set are issues I had on this tractor before I started...

    Governor issue on Farmall 100

    These are some pics of what I have right now. This is the governor housing. I have removed the spring and awaiting the replacement; which should be here tomorrow. The other pics of the rod connecting the governor and the carburetor. This one is the carb at wide open (held by hand since the...

    Governor issue on Farmall 100

    I don't think so. I compared it to my dad's Super A and it seems to be linked up the same as his.

    Governor issue on Farmall 100

    I haven't checked that but I will. Maybe I can find a pic or video that will show the correct orientation.

    Governor issue on Farmall 100

    I recently pulled the Zenith carburetor off of my 1956 Farmall 100. I planned on doing a rebuild kit but haven't gotten to it yet. I needed to move the tractor and re-installed the carb but when I went to reinstall the rod that goes to the governor rockshaft arm, the clevis didn't line up with...

    Farmall 100 Fast Hitch Diagonal Link

    I recently bought a 100 with a fast hitch, but did not come with a diagonal link. I noticed when bush hogging and using a blade, especially when backing up, the implements would sway or try and bind up when turning. I knew the diagonal link was missing. I found one listed on ebay for $125 plus...

    Super A Overheating Issues

    Most of the weekend was a washout in central NC. We got a couple hours this afternoon to try and flush the block out. Removed the radiator and ran water from the top down. Barely trickled out. We tried some compressed air and water from the top, then from the bottom, alternating back and forth a...

    Super A Overheating Issues

    Thanks for all the suggestions. I just can t believe the radiator is plugged. Water runs out the bottom as fast as we put it in with the garden hose. I m leaning more towards what the last few posts said about the block being obstructed. This weekend we plan to pull the radiator and see if water...

    Super A Overheating Issues

    No thermostat. After reading some other posts, I m wondering if there‘s an obstruction in the block. We didn t think of that today. I may need to remove the radiator and run a hose in the block to see if water flows free through it. This post was edited by 52farmall on 04/02/2023 at 07:00 pm.

    Super A Overheating Issues

    My dad and I started going through his 52 Super A that has sat for about 20 years. Tractor starts and runs nice just like he parked it yesterday. It has a water pump on it and the bearing is out on it. We replaced the pump with a remanufactured one from eBay. We started it up today and got...
