Yes the Governor weights were ready to fall off/detach from the holding pins.
Chain, Sprockets, Governor ,Gaskets, Front oil seal were replaced at sometime in 1967> 1969 when a MAJOR was done to the ENGINE. I rotated the crankshaft CW/CCW and noticed 4 TEETH on the FLYWHEEL had to move before the DISTRIBUTOR ROTOR would move. Now only one tooth on the flywheel will pass before the Rotor moves. The governor was sticking at full throttle and would not idle down. I have a SPARE rebuilt distributor and shall install in the near future.

Thanks Bob , they are very soft and seem to wear under the mushroom plunger . There was a bad batch supplied some time ago , the metal the weights were made from was very brittle and shattered after a few months of service :shock:
 
Just have some questions. I had to do basicly the same thing on my FE-35 gas, as the timming chain was worn and the seal was leaking. The governor on my tractor stays out with the weights hanging down on the bottom side, your governor looks like it stays in, which is normal? Or is mine just a little more worn? I had to replace the main seal for a 2nd time as the one that I got from AGCO from the original parts book did not have a tight enough seal and started to leak right away.
Did your seal make a tight fit, and would you by anychance have the number off of it?
Just wondered if my pulley was worn some, or what. Is your TEA a 80 or 85 mm bore engine.
Thanks
 
Good morning
(1) 85 MM Bore Engine
(2) Front Lip Oil Seal "National /Federal Mogul Lip Seal" # 472164V
A SMALL amount of BLUE Silicone was placed around the inside bore of the front timing chain cover before Lip seal was installed
(3) I installed a repair SLEEVE on the front drive Pulley, make "DURA SLEEVE" # 99175. The sealing area were the LIP SEAL makes contact was slightly grooved. Dura Sleeve specs. 1.745">1.753" Diam. # 68 Rockwell Hardness
(4) On installation the Governor plunger shall be reseeded tight against the Flyweights and no weights shall be loose or hanging down.
(5) A small amount (only enough to make the surface shiny) of engine oil was added to the shaft of the governor PLUNGER as well as the timing chain.
(6)There are NO timing MARKES on the NEW Sprockets. You may whish to line the timing marks up (facing each other) before you remove the sprockets.
(7)Place the old sprocket (CAM SPROCKET) on top of the new sprockets and accurately scribe the new sprockets as to the timing marks. There are FOUR hols in the hub of the CAM SPROCKET. Keeping turning the old sprocket until the four hols and all teeth line up. These hols are slightly off set. I used several SHOULDERED cap screws to ensure I had the new and old sprockets properly aligned. You may have to flip the old sprocket over...see right up.
(8) It's good practise to measure the thickness of the hub of the old crankshaft sprocket and the new crankshaft sprocket as the teeth on the two sprockets should align for both proper operation and longevity.(there were shims between the old Crankshaft sprocket and the shoulder portion of the crankshaft)

Cheers

A good explanation Bob , I would be interested to see the photographs and read the description of your clutch replacement when it happens .
I have this photo on file , apologies to the original poster , it shows the trouble that these weights can cause .
