Hesford,
No MkII engine has a mechanical governer on a normal New or Power Major. Maybe it's a truck or industrial engine.

Re: Bit of a strange one!
I think the engine had a pneumatic governor on it originally as the intake manifold has the vacuum pipes on it still also the linkage is there I heard they give more power and are more controllable could be wrong though

Hesford,
Make a search. there must be a few topics about the uploading of pictures.
The pump is more powerfull. Don't know if the MkII can handle it.
