I have recently got my 44 H running after a long restoration process. The engine is completely rebuilt. Right now I cant get more than 1400 rpm [using a tach.] I originally was getting 1300, then I backed out the high idle adjustment in the governer all the way. I have adjusted the timing according to the manual. The engine sounds good, its not starving for fuel and the governer does respond under load. I am stumped. Please help. Thanks

1. The adjustment located on the cylinder head pivot may be your problem. Disconnect the rod that is attached to the back of the governor & use your hand to hold the governor arm wide open with a friend checking the engine speed. 2. Be sure the governor shaft tang is correctly installed in the carburetor throttle valve notch and then check that the clevis link is adjusted correctly. (look under small cover with pipe attached to it. throttle lever open, carb shaft wide open, pin just slides in the clevis)
3. If that doesn't work, take your governor spring to NAPA & get one just like it. Their spring is slightly stronger than the IH one so you should be able to get more RPMs out of the engine.

To add to what Wayne has said so well. When my H experienced similiar symtoms after a long overhaul, I found the problem at the forward end of the horizontal shaft that connects the carb to the governor. The linkage between the horizontal shaft and the vertical shaft needed to be shortened by two turns - now runs great. Sorry about the non technical terminology. My nickel Dick Davis
