Recommended Posts

hello, I am rebuilding my 702 engine and need some help, I got the crank and piston in, and I did not put the cam in because I need help on the governor whatever parts came out are in a bag I have the cam and the governor parts, so bassically how do I put the governor back together on the inside and but the cam in right? and I need to align the timing also correct? and one more thing I found out that it is already .010 over so been rebuilt I got it and it looked rough so I took it out. thanks-Keaton

LAST OUT.......FIRST IN

When you took the engine apart the governor was the last thing to come out and needs to be the first thing to go back in.

@prondzy did an outstanding job of documenting an engine rebuild,   read it from start to finish and follow his advice.

I have Chapter 12 (reassembly) of the K series Service manual printed out on real old fashioned paper. Then I use an old fashioned pen or pencil and put a tick mark by each step as I complete it...(Have had to go to colored pencils now been through it a few times...)

I print all my manuals and have them in old school binders. I've yet to have the battery die in one yet... :rolleyes:

it turns over good, and I was checking for spark, and the generator started going slower then my cheap Menards switch puffed some white smoke then got hot, I pulled it apart because it was the main starter switch. so I need to see what kind of switch to get is they still make a aftermarket one.
