FINAL UPDATE - PROBLEM SOLVED Ok. So after replacing the entire fuel system, the problem was where we first started - the governor flyweight sticking. NB. For future reference, see my earlier video of the engine running with the throttle plate off so the governor fingers are visible. My...

Yes the injectors have been professionally pop and pattern tested. All clear. Depends what you want to eliminate from the system with the bottle feed. I've bypassed the filters - no change. I haven't tried running it without the lift pump. Will gravity feed without lift pump supply enough fuel...

My apologies to all for the delay. It has taken me forever to get hold of a Diesel Compression Tester with the adapters i needed. So to update: INJECTOR PUMP > I got the Injector Pump professionally rebuilt and calibrated by our local Bosch injector/pump specialist - no change to over revving...

Yeah the IP is where I think I need to go deeper. The injectors have been professionally tested but not the IP. The IP has shown: that it does pump fuel That the fuel slider moves freely that it sends good spray through the injectors So yes, I'll go deeper on this and see if I can get it...

Theoretically possible but not likely in my mind. But my assumption is that it can only be made out of time by human intervention. A gear isn't going to 'slip' a tooth is it? If that assumption is wrong, I'm happy to reconsider. I can't imagine that the previous owner has had the front end...

I made sure it went back the same as how it came off. Other research shows that the timing markings only line up correctly every 200ish revolutions or something so I wasn't going to start mucking around with that kind of complexity. I only removed the IP camshaft gear (Top left) and replaced...

Yes. Here's the video of when I got to that and started head-scratching. I concluded that they only lined up on certain rotations and marked them all at the point they were in this moment and reinstalled the same way they were prior to me pulling them off. I only removed the IP camshaft pulley...

3in1 Instability is probably the wrong description. You're right that it's stable once it reaches the throttle setting. What I'm referring to is that when you set the throttle, it takes so long for the revs to get up or down to where you've set it that you need to keep make adjustments once it...

Correct. Front all has to come off to remove the governor shaft. This was from a few weeks ago when I pulled it out to inspect it. It's all back together now but no drama to pull it back out to replace if you're confident it is causing the issue.

The engine in mine is a D1105-BH. The heavy spring is the 'Governor Spring'. The light spring is the return to full throttle 'Start Spring'.

Update: Uncoupled Hydraulic Motor OK, I've uncoupled the hydraulic motor to remove any effect of the hydraulics on the revs. See video. In my introduction I say that uncoupling the motor had stabilised the revs but then my test on camera completely disproved that as the RPMs were all over the...

Here's the flow from the top of the IP which runs up to the return line along the injectors and out the other end down to a T-junction that returns it and the pre-IP return back to the tank.

Yes it occurs on all hydraulic functions but to varying degrees depending on the load - eg. raising arm drops RPM more than lowering arm, pushing the bucket drops RPM more than pulling the bucket. Suction and return filters were both changed. Both were terribly clogged. Return was so clogged...

Fuel is premium diesel. Probably just a difference in colour between US and Australian standards. Pre-IP return to the tank is definitely free flowing. It pours in there pre-startup.

2500RPM (recommended Max for KX41) it still looses RPM under load - drops to 1200RPM. Looses power on all hydraulic actions but not equally on all actions. Higher load actions reduce RPM more dramatically. Eg. lifting arm drops more than lowering arm, pushing bucket drops more than pulling...
