Govenor

Im rebuilding my govenor. Should I fill the case with anything? Put a film of bearing grease on the shaft? What lube should I use, or leave her dry. Its a Super A.

Thanks all.

It get oil from the cam gear so dont worry about it. Did you rebush the throttle shaft as the shaft gets worn and wobbles and that takes sway the throttle response. I line bore the hole in the housing and replace with a 1/2x5/8 brass bushing makes them like new again.I assume you replaced the thrust bearing and got the spring loaded pin free. You also need to adjust the clevis going to the carb.

I did get a new thrust bearing. Havent looked at the spring loaded pin. Didnt know that thing was supposed to be springy. I needed a new bump spring, mine was broke. The big spring was OK but Im replaceing it anyway as its rusty. Thanks for the tip on the shaft bushing.
