Copy that. I ordered these hoping they will fit in the lenses I received that actually look real nice and fit and they even come with the o ring on them already. Just no light ha ha. I'm hoping these will slide into them. If so i should be good to go. If not I'll probably buy the ones VRZFF...
No. There are no lights in the bulbs. They are just shells. One pic is a light from the gen. The other is the ones that just came. I've tried to take the little bulb out of the ones in the gen that work. They don't come out. The one that burnt up the other day I decided to see what it would...
Right. The lenses that broke were very crumbley from being in the sun and weather for many years. I wish I could get the bulbs out of the old ones too build me lights. I ordered a couple t2 neon lights that hopefully will combine with the lenses to make working lights. If so I'll buy another...
Well crap. Unfortunately I had to buy five as a MOQ. I believe this is the shell they used to build these but I can not get the bulb out to make one since they glued and soldered the little lamp inside. I tried with the bulb that was burnt and disintegrated it. Another lamp was so broken the...
I learned that a couple volts difference between phases can mean a lot on these gens. I had about 4 volts difference and didn't think much about it but once I got my contacts polished in k1 I had .2 volts difference at most. I got lucky and the problem became more pronounced and forced me to...
This is after running about an hour at 2500 watts. really seems to be pushing out a lot of smoke and carbon. I reassembled the gen today and routed the fuel lines in what i hope is a way to keep the 2nd tee in the highest position hopefully keeping any air flowing back to tank.
Even with...
I'm sure you will get it figured out. I've ran 3 hours at full load and am 40 minutes into 11kw of load plus I'm at 3000 feet elevation so I feel pretty confident that was it. I'll post my findings also just for help for the next person chasing this issue. This thread helped me a lot...
I've been dealing with a very similar issues with a 10k so I have been following this thread pretty close. I think i found my problem but I'm testing now to be sure. ( dirty contacts in K1 maybe )
Almost like backfiring I guess I would call it. I'm sorry it's pretty hard to describe. It seemed to be holding it's rpm's okay. You can tell when it's about to choke. The smoke gets thicker and thicker and it coughs some and if I don't reduce load it will then start reducing rpms until it...
I've found you can isolate the resistors by pulling the wires off k8 and unplugging J6. The component to component wire list they made sure helped when I was wanting to measure them. R10 goes to K8-1, R11 goes to K8-2, R12 goes to K8-3 and R13 goes through J6 so if you unplug that then the...
Update: new fuel pump, New injector and no governor control. Well the mechanical governor is working. I decided to just run it with the mechanical governor since I'm having trouble with the arm slipping on the rod. Technically no change. I did get it to hold 3kw for a minute or so but it started...
