Blutothorgrimm Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 I bought a 92 loyale last week for $425 the car runs excellent but last night out of nowhere it stopped working in drive I managed to get it home with only first and second and it seemed to be emitting a quiet high pitched mechanical whine after some research on here I found the stuff about the governor my question is are these symptoms consistant with a governor or does it sound like a more serious problem I didn't find anything mentioning the noise which is why I'm posting. Thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l75eya Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Sounds very consistent with that. Read up on how to remove the governor hear gear and inspect it for uneven wear. If I remember correctly, it's pretty easy to get to, remove, and inspect/replace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blutothorgrimm Posted February 14, 2016 Author Share Posted February 14, 2016 Thanks I'm going to check it out shortly I'll probably do a fluid and filter too can't hurt. Is that a dealer only part? Or? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moosens Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Find the metal upgrade gear. They made them and somewhere I'm sure there's one out there for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
