Hi Fellows,
I'm on with restoring a Amanco Hired Hand but note that one of the governor right angle links is broken i.e. that the link that fits between the centrifugal weight and the sliding sleeve on the crankshaft. Also completely missing is the linkage that pivots on the timing idler gear shaft, the clevis end on the idler gear shaft if broken, half of the clevis is broken off. I could make a new idler pinion shaft with the clevis end but have no idea what the linkage that pivots in the clevis looks like.
Apologies for my ignorance on the correct names for the parts. I'm new to the Amanco's and don't know of another close by to go and look at and study or measure-up. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance Smile

After today's session in the workshop I've a lot more idea now whats required with the missing or broken governor parts. I've attached a few of photos here to hopefully help with sourcing parts. (Little hope I guess  Crying or Very sad ) The second photo shows the good governor link not sure though that it should have the riveted on wear pad? I guess this was a patch-up by someone in years gone by?  The third photo shows the broken governor link. The first photo shows the broken clevis on the gear spindle. Unfortunately the hit and miss lever that pivots on the gear shaft clevis is completely missing  Crying or Very sad   Amanco governor linkage parts wanted P1050813
