63 4000 gas 172 selecto speed started a surging problem under heavier loads i.e. plow ing and disking replaced governor and fork, rebuilt carb many times, new tune up kit, spark plugs and wires new battery, new governor compensation assembly it now surges at no load (just sitting) at 2400 rpm it drops to 2200 rpm every second or so governor lever jumps forward half an inch or so
I disconnected governor rod and manually set throttle till i had 2400 rpm no surge or lever movement
could it be a smoothed over camshaft
please help need to work the hay fields at end of may

Sounds like it's the govenor or the adjustment.If it's not adjusted right it will surge.Start with the adjustment thats the easiest.
