Finally got the 40T back together with new rings, rod bearings and a few other items. Purrs like a kitten (at idle), however I cannot get the throttle to work correctly.
Set all the linkage rods by the book. I can hold the throttle closed by hand, but any opening of the throttle at all just makes the motor take off. The spring that connects the upper throttle control to a stationary pin yanks the throttle wide open if you don't hold it closed at the bottom linkage rod.
this tractor sat a long time and I have found many items stuck, including the pistons, rings, lifters etc. Does the governor have some components that can stick making the throttle stay open all the time?
Thanks in advance-
