Description
Overview:
The Adjusting Screw for Governor Control is a precision‐machined steel component used to set and maintain stable engine speed on vintage JAP petrol engines. It interfaces with the governor linkage to fine‐tune response under changing loads, helping the engine run smoothly and efficiently. This genuine JAP OEM part (OEM No. 14097) is intended for service and repair of classic stationary and plant engines, including JAP 4/3 and JAP 5 models, commonly found in industrial and agricultural equipment. Built for consistent performance, the screw provides accurate adjustment without creep, supporting reliable running and reducing the risk of overspeed or hunting. Its durable construction suits repeated maintenance cycles and long periods of operation typical of site mixers, pumps, generators, and other small plant powered by JAP engines.
Key Features:
- Genuine JAP OEM part for assured compatibility (OEM No. 14097)
- Precision threads for fine, repeatable governor setting
- Robust steel construction for long service life in demanding conditions
- Helps prevent hunting, surging, and overspeed under varying loads
- Stable speed control improves fuel efficiency and output consistency
- Fits commonly used JAP stationary engines for industrial and agricultural use
- Designed to work with existing governor linkages and hardware
- Straightforward installation with basic hand tools during routine servicing
- Supports accurate tune‐ups after rebuilds or linkage replacement
- Made to original tolerances to match legacy JAP specifications
Typical Applications:
Used on JAP petrol engines driving site mixers, water pumps, generators, compressors, rollers, saw benches, and agricultural machinery. Suitable for restoration, routine maintenance, and repairs where accurate speed regulation is essential for safe and efficient operation over long duty cycles.
Also known as:
Speed regulator set‐screw, governor set‐screw, speed setting screw, regulator screw, governor tuning screw, speed control set screw.
