Once I removed my crank case cover, I noticed the powervalve actuator arm seems to pivot rather easily. Is this normal? I'm not a mechanic, but it seems like there'd be more resistance. Also, when reinstalling the cover, should the arm be flush with the case or outward towards the right? Do I simply align the water pump gear and press the cover back on, or is there something else the needs to be done. Also... When removing th cover, the washer in the photo dropped from someplace. I am assuming it was on the kickstart spindle???

You also need to chamfer the edge of the spring pocket to prevent interference as the governor compresses.
Grind the area marked in red until the spring has about 1mm of clearance as the assembled governor is compressed with your hands through it's arch. if you compare the 86 cover to the 89 cover, you will see the 86 has more clearance in this area.
