After buying a new proofmeter and cable I have found out that there is nothing at the back of the govenor housing to "grab" and turn the cable. Some part is missing or damaged but I'm not sure what. I have seen at least two different levels of govenor rebuild kits on the market. My question is does anyone know if any rebuild kit will have the parts to fix my problem or do I need to get another govenor. The govenor seems to work fine otherwise.

Does your governor housing have the male-thread fitting for the cable? Or are you wondering if something is missing inside?

It has the fitting. The cable attaches fine it's just that nothing is inside the housing to grab the cable and turn it

I have a slightly used aftermarket (I think) governor with swinging weights, not the Novi ball type. It too is missing the slotted sleeve for the tang on the proofmeter cable. I dont use it for that reason and have searched for the part and no one I have talked is able to help. Any info would be appreciated.
