- Microcosm Model Steam Engine or also known as a Toy Steam Engine Microcosm S10 Update on the Governor
I said in an earlier video I would do an S10 Mill Steam Engine update and some more information on the Governor in another video.

Thanks Kev appreciated - Jim
Great to see the engine running Jim. Good explanation on the governor. I only have one Chinese engine. A little Stirling engine kit. Fun to put together and run. All the best Cheers Nobby
Thanks very much Nobby
When you moved the lever of the control valve back and forth with your fingers at the beginning of the video, I noticed that the lever of the regulator does not return to the open position by itself. But what should he do?
I think the ball joints have too much friction. These small ball regulators have a good setting power at the appropriate speed.
But the valve and levers have to be super easy to move.
Try thin bolts in the joints.

H Michael the whole governor is pinned together, I'm starting to think the weight of the balls just don't have enough inertia.
A lot of work has gone into making that engine, even if its CNC.
Thank you kindly - Jim
Does the valve travel freely or is there a spot it sticks that is just enough to keep the governor from being able to return it? I've noticed that a lot of issues I have with Microcosm valves/carbs/valves comes down to incomplete polishing and machining of the surfaces and then they love to stick in a particular spot.
Not 100% sure I'm trying to slowly just work through what it could be
Try a lighter spring 😎
The whole governor is pinned together, its going to be a delicate operation to take apart
