Old PICKERING 2 1/2 Steam Governor Tractor Portable Hit Miss Gas Engine Magneto
pickering
Comments Off
This is a VERY hard to find original Pickering 2 1/2 inch vertical governor for a steam engine or tractor or gas engine. It is in used condition with no cracks, breaks, or repairs of any kind that I can see or know of except for the weight assembly as can be seen and the locking knob. A suitable replacement weight assembly is included and needs the limiting u-bolts repaired but this should be pretty straightforward. The horizontal shaft is stuck but I doubt very badly as the entire governor is quite oily. The gears look to be in decent shape. The vertical shaft moves as it should and the valve is in the chest and looks good. The governor stands about 27 1/2 inches tall and is called a 2 1/4 Ball Ranger model but is 2 1/2 pipe size which is used on many 20-25hp engines. With some elbow grease this would be a very usable governor. These original larger size governors are almost impossible to find in the wild or even at swap meets so if you’ve been looking for one for an authentic restoration here’s a pretty good one. Let the pictures be your guide. I can be reached at 262 573 1931 if you’d like to talk about it. The item “Old PICKERING 2 1/2 Steam Governor Tractor Portable Hit Miss Gas Engine Magneto” is in sale since Friday, November 2, 2018.

Old 3hp JOHN DEERE E Hit Miss Gas Engine Cylinder Block Cam Gear Governor NICE
john
Comments Off
Very nice original 3hp John Deere E cylinder/crankcase along with cam gear, camshaft, governor, side cover, top cover, and other small parts. It is in great shape with no cracks breaks, or repair that I can see or know of other than a small cutout in the subbase under the cylinder and a hole in the top of the crankcase cover from an honest attempt at a breather. This should be easy enough to fill in. It has the original gas tank which is pretty solid but does have some rust holes in it. It has the bearing caps but is missing one bearing and the other is chipped. The bore looks good and has some surface rust and very minor pitting if anything. I think with some honing it would be quite usable! The governor cover has the original brass tag on it and is the earlier cover with all of the writing. This would be a very restorable engine with the addition of several parts or a good donor engine for your 3hp John Deere with a cracked water jacket! It can stay here as long as needed as long as it’s paid for. I can be reached at 262 573 1931 if you’d like to talk about it. The pictures tell the story. You’ll like it.

Comments Off
This is a VERY hard to find original Gardner 1/2 inch vertical governor for a steam engine or tractor or gas engine. It is in excellent used condition with no cracks, breaks, or repairs of any kind that I can see or know of. It turns smoothly with very little wear on the gear teeth and only mild wear on the pulley shaft. Everything moves as it should and I believe it would be ready to go to work on an engine. The pipe threads are in good shape. It stands about 12 inches tall overall. These original smaller size governors are almost impossible to find in the wild or even at swap meets so if you’ve been looking for one for an authentic restoration here’s a really nice one. Let the pictures be your guide. I can be reached at 262 573 1931 if you’d like to talk about it.

Pulley measures 3.5 in diameter. Please note the piece missing from the pulley and the missing teeth on the star wheel. Governor turns over but that seems to be the only functioning moving part. Very nice little piece that would be great in a display or cleaned up and restored! Nice fairly small size governor! Please see my other adds as I will be posting a bunch of steam governor parts!

Old LEADER 3/4 Inch Steam Governor Hit Miss Engine Tractor Oiler Motor NICE
leader
Comments Off
This is a VERY hard to find original Leader 3/4 inch governor for a steam engine or gas engine. It is in excellent used condition with no cracks, breaks, or repairs that I can see or know of other than needing the valve rod put back into the socket with the set screw. Everything moves as it should. There is very little wear on the gears and only a little more on the pulley shaft. It has the original pulley on it. The 3/4 inch NPT threads look to be in great shape. It stands about 12 inches tall. Other than the valve rod and a little cleaning I would say this governor would be ready to be used on an engine! These old Leader governors are quite tough to find in the wild or even at swap meets so if you’ve been looking for one for an authentic restoration here’s a really nice one. Let the pictures be your guide. I can always be reached at 262 573 1931 if you’d like to talk about it.
