    Does anyone have a photo of the letterkenny rebuild tag. It said something like “ when the bullets start flying. You can count on letterkenny. I use to see them on auction machines. Not finding any info doing a search.

    EMP Proofing HMMWV

    I saw a photo of nato vehicles parked. I can’t remember where the photo was from. The picture had each vehicle grounded to what appeared to be a driven ground rod and a grounding cable on the left rear side of each vehicle.

    Runs rough and black smoke on initial start

    I just checked 24p the slight leak would be from the sealing washer or part number 5 in the diagram? Or internal to the injector itself?

    Runs rough and black smoke on initial start

    Maybe 5-6 weeks. The generator was bought at auction 3-4 months ago. I replaced all the fuel lines and filters. Started up and load tested. There was some noticeable dark smoke at near 100% load. I ran some sea foam through it with a good 3 hour run. The smoke at full load went away.
