Have you tried cleaning the governor air filter capsule, see
http://www.fordsontractorpages.nl/phpbb ... unts#p6352
Else have you replaced the diaphram?
Else try a search on here and on the old website (see dexta stickies).
The workshop manuals are downloadable from fordson_dexta.de

Glad it seemed to do the trick. What topper are you using, as I'm planning to get one?
