I was able to hear and feel the governor respond today !!!!! This is the first time since I bought the tractor last july. I did'nt know tractors had this, I was using the tractor and just kept the Rpm's real high and most of the time ended up lugging the engine or stalling it. I used JOHN from the UK's methhood and had to do it three times but it worked. So THANKYOU JOHN and everyone on the forum for your great knowledge and patience answering the same questions over and over again!! Now am looking foward to plowing,roto-tilling, mowing and using the front-end loader with out the tractor dying ,It shows how well-built these classic machines are. Let it snow snow snow thanks matt p
