Additional information

This engine governor shaft mounts within the governor linkage system and provides the pivot point for governor-related movement. Part number 532420602 helps maintain correct alignment so engine speed changes transfer smoothly through the linkage during operation.

If the governor shaft bends, wears, or becomes loose at its mount, speed regulation can become inconsistent. You may notice erratic engine speed, difficulty maintaining a steady idle, or the governor linkage binding during operation.

Disconnect the spark plug wire before starting the repair to prevent accidental engine startup. Align the governor linkage and install the shaft so it seats correctly, and make sure all connections move freely before tightening fasteners.
