Description
Overview:
The Governor Control Adjusting Locknut is a Genuine Jap Part for older Jap industrial engines, including models 4/3 and 5. Supplied under OEM number 14098, this small but critical fastener secures the governor control adjustment on the linkage or spindle, preventing movement during operation. Made from durable steel suited to tough industrial environments, it helps keep governor calibration stable so your engine maintains consistent speed under varying loads. This is ideal for maintenance or restoration work on vintage Jap engines used across construction, agriculture, and plant equipment. The part is unused old stock and may show light tarnish or storage marks, which do not affect function. Designed to match original specifications, it fits directly in place of the factory locknut to preserve the intended governor setup.
