Diesel governor

Posted by Brad Rackers on April 14, 2003 at 08:08:23 from (65.215.148.254):

I have a IH 574 which I purchased within the past year. At one point last summer I was running a brush hog and the tractor began surging over and under the RPM setting. It would swing about 300 rpm. Now days it doesn't seem to be running quite right.

I checked the fuel system and now I'm wondering if the governor is working properly. If I run in gear with the throttle about 1/2 open and begin up a hill the engine doesn't maintain speed. I know theres plenty of engine left since if I open up the throttle the engine will speed up but the way I understand it, the governor should take care of this automatically to try to maintain the set engine speed.

Any ideas??

Thanks,

Brad
