pupper Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 1988 R MODEL E6. Had a stuck rack, freed it up using techniques listed here. Truck starts, but will not shut down with fuel shut-off. Rpm also increases when engine is started. Plungers dont appear to be stuck and the barrels rotate. I also pulled the govenor off and it all seems to be operating properly. When I ran the truck with the govenor cap off, the lever moves from full fuel on start, to idle position. The truck will not idle though Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/22461-r-model-will-not-shut-down/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lmackattack Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 is the throttel lever tight to the shaft that comes out of the pump? a nut and bolt pinch that to the shaft.... same with the throttel stop? would advise you install a manual throttel stop before you keep trying to start it. Last thing you want is a runaway...and you dont want to stand next to it when it does run off.Sounds like the pump has some issues?

pupper Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 Hey Lmack,Thanks for the reply. The throttle and fuel shut off are good. I did put a manuel shut off in the line in case of a run away. Don't know what else to try ?
