Both brand new batteries last fall
At Glassk: I was going to go through the process of checking the DC voltage but was wondering if it is possible that it corrected itself. I will need to start it again and put the meter on it as see what I am getting to be sure but the DC gauge was right i the...

I have no idea. It is pretty stiff and snaps into place when you move it. I've never had that all apart and hope not to but I'd guess there is a pretty stiff spring that locks it into place when turned. I'm sure someone here has worked with it. When you are looking at the tech manual it is...
Should be all the way counter clockwise for 3 phase. There is normally a plate right above the switch that would show what the positions are. All the way clockwise is 120/240 single phase.
The switch is a three position..should be 208/120 3 ph to the left, 120 single ph center and 240/120 right. (This is the one down by the breaker). Emphasis, should be. I'd consult the manual for the setting on the control panel. Mine are set on 240/120 and I don't recall where it is to be for...
It appears you cracked the lines at the injection pump and not the injectors?
As to the switch's the first pic it would depend on what voltage you are trying to get. I can't tell on the second one, is that a shaft sticking out of the cabinet or is it broken off?
I got the urge to go out this evening and start the generators. I has been a couple of months since they were last started.
I had an overcharge issue with my 002. It would creep into the red in 5 to 10 minutes of running. Just ran it for about 45 with 50% load and it never went above the...
The one on the left is the DC voltage charging system for batteries. You can check to see that you are getting, I believe about 26.5 volts charging. That meter could be off a bit.
The other is the AC volt meter could also be off. Check the actual output.
What setting do you have your voltage...
I added Marvins Mystery Oil to my fuel for the first couple tanks (also added to the motor oil). I put some Lucas Injector Cleaner through it as well. I am going to pull them apart and send the injectors to Jerry to have them looked at. It seems from the posts on here that it usually makes a...
It's really hard to tell in the video but I didn't think anything sounded or looked abnormal there. I am sure others will have input.
Are you adjusting the throttle to increase the Hz? It is a manual adjustment.
Do you have voltage output?
Storeman can rebuild the injectors if you determine...
I'd start here as well. First is the oil pressure coming up? If not that would be the reason Also, my 002 had a bad connection at the switch causing it to do the same thing.
Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.
From what I have seen over the past year or so, unless you get a super deal on something and have to put very little into it you are not going to make anything selling it. Prices have been high enough on GL, etc. that if you are planning to go into...
Wonder how many of these machines are running right now supplying power to those in the mid-west and south?
Praying for you folks. I can't imagine being caught up in such a horrific event. The pictures make me sick.
Both my 002 & 003 are two pin
Edited to add: Not sure what value they have for the average owner. I have no other 24 volt stuff. Just a dumb question but am I missing something they can be used for?
