Pickering Governor tension adjusting spring
 

Does anyone have a spare tension adjusting spring for a Pickering governor or know where I might obtain one? The little tag on one end of mine has broken off.
Would be interested to know of any leads to a replacement.

Jeff , send your old one to our friends at Tested Spring Co , at Tividale , see ' Suppliers ' , and ask on here who else wants one , always cheaper if not a one off .

I would buy one if someone was ordering.

Peter Badger from Welyn garden City used to make springs, took over the family business ,he owns a Marshall Engine that he regulary took to BarleyLands .He is still about as I saw him at Ally Pally !

Thank you to all, a replacement spring has been located.

I know this is an old post but we have the same issue as above, in the interim years has anyone ordered some or got a spare replacement???

Thanks in advance

Chris Griffin on here makes all manner of springs. Just supplied me (March 2017) with a new set of flat springs and the cross tension spring for a Pickering Governor. Excellent and economically priced service.

It may be worth looking in stock spring catalogues, this is just one example, different companies have different ranges.

Google is your friend.

I have a spare tension spring but I have heard that there are so many different sizes and shapes that you would consider yourself lucky to find one already made that was just right.

I can recommend Chris G for fiddly one off springs made to pattern.
