QuestionI have a John Deere STX 30 that wont start and I was told it was the governor, so I need to know how to adjust the governor. Can you help?
AnswerIt is not the governor. No matter how it is adjusted it won't keep your tractor from starting.
You adjust the gov by loosening the clamp on the gov arm. Turn everything, gov rod, gov arm, throttle shaft to wide open throttle, now retighten the gov arm.
Trust me this is not going to make your tractor run.
