Further debugging ideas anyone? Thanks.


Oh..jeez I think the long governor spring is attached to the wrong place. There isn't enough tension against the governor arm and that is why it is flapping. Too dark to go and try this fix out... does this make sense?

Could be. The governor springs sometimes get rusty
and don't spring correctly.


Or a screw vibrated loose? Adjustment...
