Abstract
A governor weight retainer assembly for a fuel pump in which a flexible connection is provided between the governor weight retainer and the hub on which the weight retainer is mounted. The flexible connection is a mechanical construction which has elongated spring elements supported on the hub as chordal elements, and roller elements are mounted on the weight retainer for limited travel in a circle on the chordal elements. The roller and chordal elements thus serve as cushion means between the retainer and hub.
