A few weeks back I posted about a ticking sound I was
hearing on the top side of a fresh engine and head rebuild on
my B. I finally got the rocker arm rebushed and the surfaces
refaced at the machine shop thinking that will finally solve it,
but no success. So I took the governor housing off to inspect
the governor teeth and camshaft teeth. They both are fine, but
I noticed a spot in the governor housing where it looks like the
weight is catching the housing. Ive had this governor for five
years, and the only thing different from before engine
overhaul and after overhaul is a new distributor bushing. What
do I do to remedy this? File the edge of the housing a bit so
the weights dont catch? Maybe this is causing my ticking noise?
