Guess I could only post one video at a time. Here is the other. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCEIL4G9u8A

I am sure this has been discussed 100 times+, but This is the first time I have had a chance to really load up my recent frankenstein machine(took 2 bad ones and made 1 good one!). This thing is amazing. 62amps per leg. That is 14.9KW. I did run it at 125%ish for probably 30-40min and then it...

just google 12 space terminal strip. They are all over the place for less than $5.

Hello all, my 803 generator trailer has the pig tail to hook to a military whatever. I would like to find the truck receptacle(male?) to rig up a converter to tow with my truck. Any tips or leads would be appreciated.

Had a mouse issue in exact spot on my 802. No fire, but was one loose connection away from it!! Follow advice you have already received here. The wires need to come off and either the crimped forks cleaned up really well or even replaced. Find another terminal strip on A-----n and either just do...

Lights still on here on Cape Cod. Wind gusts up to 77MPH here. My "new" 803 is sitting with fresh service just finished today and also re worked my connection. Hoping the power does go out so I can test the whole rig!!! Since I want it to go out, it never will.

This is a GP auction yesterday. It caught my attention since it went for such a cheap price. I was shocked at how much gen's were going for yesterday BTW! But, going thru the pictures I saw this cooling system mod. Anyone know what it is??? Very interesting

You will see ".8 power factor", which is at 5k watts you still have another 20% to go, which depending on how you do the math, you can get up to 6250 watts out of it. I saw 25amps on each leg when I load test mine. Others have said they are able to squeeze a little more out of them. Of course...

Approx. 575 hrs.

I am not getting a LOPL, just reading the gauge. The issue is I don't know if it already has the 100 hours on it. Would help if they put the original hours on the reset tag so we could determine that. I have enough diesel equipment to know dirty oil, this stuff looks nice and fresh, but a little...

I have a motor in my 803 that has a reset tag that said 2.5 hours. That is all I can decipher. The oil looks clean, but I am having low oil pressure when hot. Probably 25-30LB on the gauge. I am going to hook up a manual gauge to verify the electric. But thinking I need to change the oil to a...

Farmit, Funny you mention more work space, currently designing and planning an addition for this spring on the shop! Stopped working at 7 tonight after getting engine started. Had some issues initially with a dead short when I would turn the S1 on. Started to melt the cable going to the pre...

I officially have a problem Just a continuation of the saga. I picked up an 813 yesterday to rob the engine out of. Was a unit that someone bought without doing research here and than posted here trying to resolve his issues. That didn't go so well shall we say! But, I have it, the engine...

Do a search, but the only real potential for a draw is thru the alternator. I think it is a bad diode. You should remove the negative battery cable and hook your DVM up to see what the actual amperage draw is.

Guy, per your request......https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdMVLxt3QzM

Chris, You are absolutely correct. I should be all set. Thanks

I may be replacing my gen head. The one that was on my machine had black colored wires coming out of the head. The one I am looking at has white wires. Is there a difference and should I be concerned? The potential gen head may have had its output leads swapped around on TB3. Is there a way to...

Guy, Do you have any information on what type of meter you used that recorded usage? I have been on the inter webs looking and most systems seem very expensive. I would think in todays technology, there would be something that could be easily stored and either reviewed on meter or downloaded...

I am not sure this is helpful, but I feel there are a lot of "Handy" guys on here that will get this and use it. I have taken my electric panel cover off. I have a clamp on amprobe that I attach to each leg coming in. I then go(usually by myself!) and start to go back and forth from the panel to...

803 engine removal So, another first! After much work, unscrewing of small screws, head scratching and throwing my hands up, I decided to just remove the gen head and the engine together. Once I saw that the head was only really connected by 12 wires and a quick disconnect connector, I decided...
