Finally got the pump apart. The plastic ring is gone. The weight retainer is in 2 pieces there is the part that holds the weights and then the plate, one of the rivets came out of the plate. If I purchase the newer EID retainer will that replace the whole govenor assembly(plate, retainer and ring)? Or will I have to buy a new govenor plate? What are the part#'s I will need?
Thanks
Dan
jdemaris said: (quoted from post at 13:23:20 05/26/08) Shattered plastic governor dampener ring sends small pieces of plastic all through the pump and often creates overly high housing pressure - which result in the problems like you describe.
Often leads to engine shut-down.
I had to fix many - out in the woods and field when I was a Deere mechanic. Deere,Case,IH, Ford, AC, Hercules, et. al. all use some versions of the same pump.
A complete seal kit with a new dampener is $12. A person with experience can pull the pump all apart, reseal and put back togeher - in one hour.
There is an updated dampener that can be installed and it will never come apart again - for an extra $40 (EID retainer). Stanadyne used it in all the pumps after 1985.
If your pump has high hours - you can assume it will need a few more parts than just the seal kit - if you want to replace them while apart. Main wear items are -
front drive bushing where the shaft-seals ride - new one cost $10.
fuel metering-valve - $12
fuel pump vanes and liner - $16.
That's about it - most pumps that get "rebuilt"
at a Stanadyne-certified only get those parts plus a seal kit. $50 in parts total. Cleaned up, put on a test-stand, fuel delivery and timing advance checked - and then a $350-$650 repair bill.
If you are careful - no adjustments get altered. You can, however, check the max. fuel delivery setting while apart with a 2" micrometer.
Timing advance can be checked on a running machine with a $8 plastic timing window - or a conventional timing light hooked to a piezo-pickup on an injector line.

Today's Featured Article - What Oil Should I Use? - by Francis Robinson. I keep seein this question pop up over and over again in discussion groups all over the web. As with many things there are often several right answers and a few wrong ones. Some purist I'm sure will disagree to no end with what I will tell you but most of us out here in the real world don't really care do we ? Some of them only bring their noses down out of the air long enough to look down them anyway. If you are like me you are only doing this old tractor stuff because you enjoy it. You
