Hello all,
Just joined up the forum to get some input on a strange problem.
I have owned a 52 8N for about 4 years now and it has run great. About a year and a half a go I rebuilt the governor and have had no issues (about 20hours of brush cutting). Yesterday I cranked the tractor up and it ran for about 1 minute then the engine revved up to max rpms. I shut it off and restarted it and immediately redlined again. I turned on the PTO and put it in gear and ran it for about a 100 feet to see if it would settle down, it did not. I then shut it down and waited about 10 min and stated it again. It cranked and with in a few seconds maxed out rpms I pushed on the linkage arms to the governor and could manually slow the engine down but when I turned it loose it would rev up again.
Im not sure whats going on but dont want to blow the thing up. Could it be a governor problem or something else?
