there is NO throttle.

This one does have a throttle, there’s a lever you can bump it up or down with. That’s demonstrated in one of the videos I posted.

Is NOT designed for variable throttle as a machine engine. Swap the governors, worked on both styles and what is on the engine will not respond as a machine engine needs.

I’m not considering “not swapping” the governors, I’m going to set up this engine like the old one.

Will be a Dime sized label on the Injectors, may want to see if similar number to the other engine, could be a lower HP fuel rate.

How about posting a couple pictures of the two governors showing the levers on them.

I'm guessing the loader engine has a variable speed governor and the pump engine has the limiting speed governor.

The governors may be stamped--DWLS or DWVS or similar. Look under the dirt on the side near the top. May be hard to see, also, may or may not be stamped or tagged. I wasn't trying to mislead you in the earlier post awhile back but whenever a governor is disturbed, the governor settings/adjustments HAVE to be checked and you might as well check the valve lash and injector timing while you're at it because those adjustments have to be done before the racks/control tube is set. Then last, the governor settings are performed

This is what I was looking for, thank you.

I’m not at the green engine right now, I’m at the red engine. These pictures were taken for other purposes.

 

[56wrench]

There's your governor tag. I can't make out what it says though

On the green one? It might be covered up on the red one, I can unbolt something and see. I’ll be up there soon and can clean it up and get a closer picture.

 

[56wrench]

Ya, the green one. I would think the red one should have one too but maybe not

I have a guy with Detroit Diesel 2 cycle experience agreed to go up on the day we swap engines and help, we’ll have him do the governors. He had a fleet of trucks with 6-71 engines, until California emissions laws shut him down. He’s retired now. He told me the M95 injectors listed on the data plate on the rocker cover is too much fuel for loader use, he wants to swap them, I think he said N75.

Not to argue with him but I might think a set of N-65's would be more than enough for a non-turbo engine.

It “is” a turbo engine though.

Sorry I guess I was looking at the "green" engine, had to go back a few pages to find the picture of the red engine showing the turbo!

So you’re in agreement with him if it’s a turbo?

 

[56wrench]

So, what does the gov tag on the red engine say?
