Do you know what the threads are on the glow plug? Are they standard 7/16 how many Threads per inch?

Did you ever find a good affordable solution to test the compression?

So I am looking for a reading of more then 3 and 0 for it to be bad?

Does this test work for all the glow plugs or just for the onces that go in the enginer?

I will test to see if I need any. I am willimg to bet I will need a few. If I do I would be interested for sure. Let me know what they would cost.

What was the napa part number for the glow plug?

Less then a min to start running smoothly. Right around a min or so for smoke to stop. Fuel is fresh. Its behaving a lot like my tdi jetta diesel which has an engine light on for a bad glow plug.

Ambac is not an easy website to find things on. The model 50 pump only shows up as Sku 502/4A80A9540A. I have no idea if this is correct or even what i need. Does anyone have the sku or name it under?

Ran the generator in the box with a load. Outside temp 50 degrees the inside never got over 68 until the unit was off then it got to 85 should not outside temp when it hit 85 after it was off was 66. The noise level dropped about 20db from 90s to 70s with shed.

So an update to this problem. I started it up again in 40 degree weather and it had not run for a month. It was really hard to start did not want to kick up the rpm it was running really low rpms. For this reason I would stop it and try again. After a few time it kicked up the rpm but was...

Do you know what kit number I need from ambac? How mich for the entire kit any ideas?

Whats the H.H? What number from the pic above is the knurled head bolt?

This pic may be better to look at my lines.

So in the picture attached is the injector pump. A red line on the picture shows the location i am getting diesel leaking from. I also placed a line in green to the part i think needs to be replaced to fix that leak. I just want to make sure that i am not missing anything and that is the right...

This is my shed. The roof comes off and all the walls fold down for easy access. The control unit is in the building next to the shed as well as the batteries. My controlling of the generator is done inside the building next to it. The way the exhaust and intake face there is an open field. My...

No easy way to check that out or fix it is there?

That's what I have been thinking about doing. I just need to figure out what my temp range needs to be. The temp readers for weather don't go very high. If the shed is ok to get to say 150 degrees I need to make sure I can see if it goes that high or over that. With a 90 degree day in the...

I did not think of that, you think my startup smoke could be from a glow plug not working right?

The conversation has changed so much on this topic I feel that I will be putting it back off topic. With that said the information on how to keep mice out is very important and I will be trying some of the ideas thanks guys. So I have completed the shed and will post some picture as soon as I...

My mep003a has 1300 hours and had not been run in a long time. I got it started but it was smoking really bad for a while and missing on one of the cylinders. After it took time to run the rust off it stopped smoking and ran on all cylinders with a heavy load no problem. My question is I am...
