H won't rev up

Posted by redjohn on November 12, 2011 at 19:24:42 from (74.33.84.88):

I'm working on a friends Farmall H.

I've rewired it for 12 volts, with an alternator.

My friend said the motor was overhauled recently, and he couldn't get it running correctly.

This tractor has a distributor,instead of magneto.

Upon getting it wired, and up and runing, I can't get the thing to rev up to what I believe should be the correct rpm.

I tried to reset the linkage from the governor to the carb, but ran out of threads on the shaft for the clevis. I'm down all the way, and still have to push down on the rod a little bit, before being able to put the pin back in.

I have also noticed, after messing with the carb, and governor, that from Idle, I can pull back on the throttle 1/2 to 2/3 of the way, before rpm increases.

I believe there may be a problem with the governor, but not sure, and what should I look for.

Is this something I can fix, or should I leave it to someone more knowledgable?

The tractor can sit for a long time, I can pull the switch, push start, and it fires right up. It's a little cold blooded, but after warming up, I can go from idle to wot ( at least as far as it's going) without a sputter. The tractor runs great, except for no rpm.

I could use any help, anyone is willing to help me with :?
