I think a NPT nipple will thread into that. an extra thick layer if teflon tape should hold it. I made something similar for a fuel can with a hose fitting and pickup tube.
Depends. Inv used alcohol, gasoline, acetone, and in 1 rare case of how in the hell did this ever work, carb soak cleaner. That was the one that was so badly gummed up I couldn't get the Piston out and had to resort to 120 PSI of compressed air into the output. This was successful in the...
What I found in the past is a buildup of gunk to the point where the pump would run for a bit then it would get hot and things would expand then it would jam up. Getting it really clean is definitely important

The pump that doesn't work I'm willing to bet that you can take it apart and clean it up and restore it to functionality. These things are pretty robust and there's not much that can critically fail to kill them. As for the pump strainers I couldn't tell you if there's even a difference between...
This 004 I've had rigged up for standby use, including auto start. I typically see around an 8 seconds between utilities loss and running on generator (including stability time). Looking through my transfer logs, it's gone as low as 5 seconds.
What prompted this was I needed to check floats...
I have that set alot lower, BUT to be fair historically with my set unless i was screwing with it i hardly needed any prime time. This is more of an edge case mitigation. What I ended up with was a switch to force pumps on and force open the day tank solenoid. when I needed to bleed it out...
I'd use something maintained. A full refill and prime takes longer than I'd want to stand there and hold a button.

@peapvp I think something that will leave many curses uttered is the fuel pump comtrol (mainly because it just left me cursing). You have the fuel pump relay being driven by the mebay only, When you change filters (or drain the day tank) the pumps need to be forced on to refill and prime...
Happy to.
Oil pressure I used https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09SL2FKBW?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title please note this requires a 1/4 npt to 1/8 npt bushing
water temp I used https://www.ebay.com/itm/326152036724 Direct drop in
Programming wise the oil pressure sensor needs to be set to...
I am in the middle of a retrofit of a 004. My project went a bit over the original scope, so apples to oranges here.
One thing I had quite the frustration with was the analog sensors (oil pressure, water temprature, and fuel level) I found that the fuel sender doesnt need to be custom...
I bought 1 generator back in 2018. Which prompted me to buy one on behalf of a friend. Needless to say I have in my possession more than a reasonable human would.
One is none two is one and three is a party and I like to party
