Alright, I tried to get that governor cover off and it won't budge in!! Unless its supposed to be tough? All of the rest of those covers press in 1/2in, but this wont.
My thinking is that the governor is pressed up against the cover. So I went first to the pump to check it:
Phew...looks OK!! Seems that the pump engaged fine, so its gotta be with the governor and I HOPE that since I don't see any damage, the governor just slipped sideways towards the drivers side and no damage occurred.
I tried to get a photo of the output shaft of the gov but its pressed in (AGAIN, strong indication its too far over.) I couldn't get a good photo, but it looked okay too.
