Please, I need to figure out what the spring hardware is.
Book shows 2464A clip, two S1082 cap screws, and a lead car seal.
These parts connect the throttle cable to the gov spri g to the gov rod.
Also, what screw length is an S-292 ? Have tried 0s-0292 on the net but haven't found any info

I have the parts book, but the illustrations are micro sized & clear as mud

Thanks for any help.

Thanks for that info Josh.

Maybe there is a pic out there showing the spring assembly without the housing ?

Looks pretty much like a Sixty.

That clip is a piece of tin with a hole for the spring on one end, then, a hole in the middle for a screw to hold the throttle wire. It also has a couple ears that fold over to keep the wire end tidy. Wish I had a picture to show you.

Hope this helps.
BP.

I am also interested in this thread as I need to make the same connection on my sixty project.

Very surprised that the books don't cover this in more detail, both visual and written. I have been looking over the parts, operator, and service books last night and noticed a few things.
The associated bolts have the heads drilled for lock wire (thanks for the hint Josh) so lead seals can be crimped (like a gas/electric meter)to show if the adjustment has been tampered with. The parts book reads three car seals, so the :
The lock bolt for S1078 screw (high gov speed)
Two S1082 cap screws for S1079 cover
Two cap crews S292 to secure S1077 housing to the engine

I am missing the clevis that secures the forward end of the gov spring to the lever S1742 and the 2464A clip.
It would be easier to replicate the parts if someone had a pic and some measurements.

Interesting that Cat was so concerned with tamperproofing the RPM, guess they had a few problems with exceeding the redline?

Everyone, thanks for your help so far on this puzzle, hope we get more info.

I searched through some parts and found these screws in the spring housing. Book says need two, but didn't see where it shows the adjustment lock screw, so three should be correct I guess.

Also found this clip. The folded end is missing part of the fold and that might let it slip into the throttle cable tube, messing up the RPM setting. This is how it was assembled with a wire instead of a cable using a 10-32 screw,washer, and square nut. The clip is stamped from 16 gauge steel

Hi Team,
my Best and Cat 30 Parts Books for Best S/No's S-1001 to S-3100 & Cat S/No's S-1001 to S-4682, show the scans below with separate pictures of the parts.
Hope this helps a bit.

"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."
