    Need alittle help concerning Gensets

    Thanks again for the tips. I think I can build a lock out for the service disconnect breaker, or lock up the whole circuit panel. I'm not convinced that the gen would overload too much since all the gen current is going through the 60 amp breaker. Won't it trip pretty quickly if I try to feed...

    Need alittle help concerning Gensets

    Transfer switch? I see where people have spent a large sum on a transfer switch. I will use this very little if ever (the power hasn't gone out for more then a few minutes in 10 years, which means I was probably stupid to buy this, but I love machines so I couldn't help it:-D) I have a welder...

    Need alittle help concerning Gensets

    It runs! I got it running!. Here is what I found: The bottom fuel line connector is missing from the inside pump. It looks like it is broken out of the hole. I don't think the hole into the pump is threaded since the metal is only about 1/8th inch thick. The power was disconnected from the...

    Need alittle help concerning Gensets

    Speddmon, your description is great, I would not have known to connect the lines in the correct places. Why do they have so many fuel pumps, reduncancy? I won't have time to work on it this week.

    Need alittle help concerning Gensets

    Thanks a lot for your help! The fuel line is disconnected between the electric pump and the first filter. I think it is supposed to route behind the vertical angle iron, but it doesn't seem long enough. I attached a picture of it. The oil leak may have just been that they didn't shut the drain...

    Need alittle help concerning Gensets

    I hope the repairs are not significant. Since the fuel line is disconnected, it could have a bad fuel pump or something else wrong. Funny but several of the gens in the same event were condition code F-7. When I looked back at the pictures, the others appeared to be more serviceable then mine. I...

    Need alittle help concerning Gensets

    I agree with Isaac-1 about the condition codes being useless. I just bought a Libby 10kw that had a condition code A-4 "serviceable and issuable to all customers without limitation of restrictions" It has the fuel lines disconnected, an oil leak, completely dead batts (won't take a charge) and...
