3. Slide the governor cup off, making certain to
catch the flyballs. Replace any flyball that is
grooved
or
has a flat spot.
4.
Examine the ball spacer. If the arms of the ball
spacer are worn or otherwise damaged, re-
move the spacer by splitting
it with a chisel.
Use a press to install a new spacer on the cam-
shaft gear.

or wobble. If the race surface of the cup is
grooved
or
rough, replace it with a new one.
Governor
Cup
Installation
Procedure
The governor cup and flyballs are easily installed
when the camshaft assembly is removed from the
engine. If necessary, the engine may be tilted up to
install the cup and flyballs.
1 . Put
the
flyballs between the spacer arms and
install the cup on the center pin.
2.
Lock the cup
in
place with the snap ring.
Camshaft
Center Pin
Installation
Procedure
1.
The camshaft center pin extends 3/4 inch (19
mm) from the end of the camshaft. This dis-
tance provides 7/32 inch (5.6 mm) travel for the
governor cup, as illustrated in Figure 9-16.
Measure this distance while holding the cup
against the flyballs. If the distance is less, the
engine may race, especially at
no
load.
2.
Remove the center pin and press in a new pin
the specified amount.
Do
not hammer the new
pin into place, or
it will be damaged. The cam-
shaft center pin cannot be pulled outward
or
re-
moved without damage. If the center pin ex-
tends too far, the cup will not hold the flyballs
properly.
TIMING GEARS
AND
CAMSHAFT
If either the crankshaft gear or the camshaft gear
needs replacement, both gears should be re-
placed.
