I'm restoring a Bell & Howell 185 16 mm sound projector, and I was testing it with a sound film..., everything was going well and after few minutes the speed change by itself to high speed.
Can anyone in the forum please help me on how to adjust the speed to the normal sound speed ?
Thank you so much

I got your PM so I am answering your posting here.
Click below for servicing some Bell & Howell projectors. In your case, scroll down to page 36 together with figure Z for adjusting the speed governor. The 185 hails from about 1950 and is known here in the UK as model 621. BH179OS.pdf (film-tech.com)
