HI ALL
Great forum / website full of great info
i have a problem with detroit 6 / 71 brief history engine is in a converted fuel barge was rebuilt about 5 yrs ago
then moved to present mooring engine not run for last 4 yrs now have to move moorings . Have got engine to run
but runs very fast and extremely noisey the governor lever does nothing and have to stop engine by starving of fuel
have taken rocker cover off and checked throttle bar and there is very little movement 1-2 mm at very most
does it need setting up again and settings checked would appreciate any info or ideas
thanks for reading this
