Turns out my load bank has too set of references for the Kw switches....one for single phase and another for 3 phase. When I thought I was running 15kw I was actually runing 12
222hrs.
I don't think it wetstacking.....because i don't see the usual black specs flying out.
But I was going to top off the coolant and do just that....to see if by chance its burning coolant. to get it to 75% I'll have to run over 10kw load...probably close to 15kw
This machine started giving me issues a few weeks ago when it would only start with Ether...then it would run fine. But now it wont. I'm guessing its a fuel issue....was going to start at the filters and then pump.
Any suggestions?

I believe it is.....because I starated it when I received it. I added fluids....started right up, rand for a while and I shut it down. Yesterday I went to start it to put a load bank on it, and it would start and shut itself down. Nothing has been manipulated since I received it.
I'm...
I haven't looked at the TM yet. I was just on here making a different post and figured I'd ask away. I have an 803A that I purchased over a month ago. It started and ran great. Yesterday I was going though my generators, started and ran this one....but it started and turned off and...
I have an MEP806B Genset that ran great a few months ago....then all of a sudden it stopped. I can still start the engine but everything else was dead....and my cousin took it all apart.
I have a brand New 805A control head that I purchased....even overpaid for it. Would this be a drop...
