My 5U gov housing has what appears to be a cork plug in this hole. Just wondering if it's normal and what the hole is for.[attachment=59612]20200705_120148.jpg[/attachment][attachment=59612]20200705_120148.jpg[/attachment]

Hi,
cork seals of the puller bolt threads in the outer end of the shaft so as to assist in removal of the Terminal Lever shaft in the housing.
SRB shows a bolt in use under the heading of Terminal Lever Removal.

Cheers,
Eddie B.

Glad you asked. I noticed that on mine too and was wondering. It appears I have injection and governor work to do soon.

Hi Team,
the shaft hole is a blind threaded hole so the cork helps keep out dirt, rust and mud daubers. It was a common practice of Cat to cork such holes in many locations on their machines.

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
