    No offense intended ibflat2. There is a time and place for road service and a wrecker, but not for the small easy fixes.

    If you are going to carry a spare Governor then I would recomend you buy the extra fittings and have it plugged, and the vent installed before hand. Also a new gasket, put it in a box securely. Just a thought!

    I assume you say "plugged" to keep dirt and crap out of govenor? As you said, it will be plumbed up for a quick changeover if ever needed.
    As always, thanks for the thought John....:biggrin_25514:

    An air governor has lots of 1/8 NPT holes in it one you want to put a vent plug and then there are the fittings the rest you need to put in the 1/8 th Allen plugs that come with the new governor. All but the one that mounts to the compressor. Very few drivers are going to have an Allen wrench, is my point. If you buy the governor at a shop most will put in the plugs and fitting to match your truck for free. Just a thought!
