[Ford-ferguson] 8-N Governor

[Cliff Johnston]

This sounds like during storage something chnaged on th governer.  However, usless someone physically messed with it, it isdifficult to imangine the arms or linkage getting reversed by themselves.  I suggest review the manuals and governer set up to see if some part is broken or a setting has slipped.
