i was refering to the distributer that goes on the plunger?

the pressure regulator already broke me 2 sockets and dont want to come off...

Use a 6 point 10 mm socket. Leave 2 opposing flats alone (they fit the 2 flats on the regulator bolt) and use a Dremel with a small diameter grinder (chain saw sharpener bit works well) and grind the other four flats "round" to fit the regulator bolt. Do a little at a time while test fitting it on the bolt. Mine fits perfect and works great.!

I ad 0.8 mm steel plate around to harden with mig.


I`ll improve my English

Didn't you say the socket you made slipped? That means the tool is not good enuf.

ok,got it unstuck,its free now.

and a quick pic of my governor


thats WAY TOO MUCH governor mod.. i used one stainless nut half as thick as what you have on there. it doesnt look right either, like something is missing, or there is too much of something.

i still have some travel left in my governor main spring.

if you tried to go full throttle with that governor, the clip on the end of the governor would fly of, and the idle spring, and spring spacer, along with washer, would all fall down in the pump, and you would lose your throttle..

There's parts of 2 governors in there I think... Totally agree though, that is WAY too much.  The main spring doesn't need to be shimmed much for a substantial difference - I used a hardened roller from a broken bicycle chain for mine, not more than 1/8" thick.  Raised the governor by about 1200 RPM which was just fine by me.
