Today I got out at 0630 and removed the governor from the 8N tractor. After church I got after it and carried 7 three gallong buckets of water, using six to fill my new parts washer. Then the governor took a bath and got mostly cleaned up. I dried it and began to disassemble, replace a few worn parts, and reassemble the governor. Then I replaced it on the tractor, hooked up the battery, and got about one second of attempt to start. Maybe 1.5 seconds, but I doubt two whole seconds, then…. Nothing. There is electricity going somewhere as I learned when I went to tighten a few loose nuts without disconnecting the battery, but not starting action. I am baffled.
The tractor does not run, but it sure looks good!
