Looking for feedback So I'm mowing the lawn at full RPM with PTO engaged, and suddenly the engine RPMs drop down to idle and stays there until I throttle down then throttle back up again which gives me full 3600 RPM but just for a short bit. Am I on-target by saying that the plastic Governor Gear is missing a tooth or teeth (P/N 47 042 02-S)? This would mean that I would have to pull the K241 - Ouch!

rmaynard 17,409 #2 Posted 35 minutes ago I don't think it's a broken governor gear, but if you want to take the governor gear out, you must pull the engine, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skippymud 0 #3 Posted 15 minutes ago Hello rmaynard Thanks for the feedback. I hear you on having to pull the engine for this. I've have had it on the table once to rebuild it some years ago. Heavy thing So if it is not the plastic governor gear, what else do you think it could it be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
