My father has a IH model 240, The throttle goes from an idle to a full roar with just a touch of the handle, it is all or nothing. He was told that it might be the govenor. I looked in his manual, and it stated that the govenor was located on the front of the engine, if it is I can not find it. I would like to remove it and have it repaired. Thanks for any help.

Dan: Usually there is not a whole lot wrong with these. Spring and thrust bearing are usually the culpert. Ocasionally bushings in the throttle shaft. Governor can be removed without disturbing distributor, you will skin a few knuckles, perhaps utter a few choice words. Some recomend removing rad, that will make it easy. I quite often loosen rad, unbolt at top to let top tip foreward. Depending on tractor model, you may get off just removing shroud around fan.

like TDK said it`s on the opposite side of the distributor, also when you remove it you will have to reset your timing.Sometimes you can just remove the govenor housing without disturbing the gearing mechanisms. Bearings can be replaced and linkages can be checked for free movement from here. Also you will need a housing gasket when you put it back on.

The governor is located on right front(sitting on tractor)of engine. Distributer is just behind it and should be removed before removing governor. I believe there's 5 bolts that hold it on. Have someone move throttle back and forth(engine off) while looking in this location and you'll see the throttle rod moving the lever on side of governor.
