Check voltage coming off both alternators and make sure they are not over charging, (bad voltage regulator).

Check the CUCV stickys, I believe Warthog has posted some good diagrams of all the relays and diodes. I know there is a diode in the wire harness located near the back of the air cleaner. Also, here is a alternator service manual that has not been posted here for a while. The stock...

Probably time for a IP.

Test 1 Test 2 I figured it out, firefox updated no scripts (I didn't change anything) and now I have to manually re-allow all the sites I use.

Thanks, Test 1 Test2 Test3. Anyone have an idea what changed? I am not aware of changing any settings.

So they are 12V, according to the link above. Guess them being in series makes that work. I did look though the 2815-252-24P manual, and did not find them, must have missed it again. What section are they listed in?

In the last couple posts I have made, the forum has compressed a couple of paragraphs into one run on. Is this new, or is some setting of mine off?

The thread at the top of muffler is 1.25 NPT, if that helps. It should work out fine if you keep the run short and make sure there is a good heat shield near anything combustible, and a non combustible thimble where it exits building. If you have to run it more than several feet, consider...

Thanks, most of my original question had to do with accessing them for removal without taking a lot of panels off. Before I get too deep in taking it apart, I figured I should get some new plugs on hand. I have not found a source yet. If any one has any ideas, please let me know. Am...

The 701a is pretty loud, despite the enclosure.

If you are looking at the VIN, the 1008 will start out 1GCGD and the 1028 will start out 1GCHD.

I used both engine and generator TMs, but may have missed something. It fires on one cylinder, that is what leads me to believe one plug was dead also. On the emergency no glow start procedure, the air intake, which is rubber, does not lend itself to the rag on fire method as well as an...

My 802 only fires on one cylinder cranking in cold temperatures, so, no start. My first guess is to check the "glow plugs" though that is not what they are called in TMs on this. I suppose it is possible a wire is loose or broken on heater relay also. I probably have missed something, but...

Is fuel return line working? Won't comment on electric pump system , as I don't know what you have, but if you keep it electric, it would be good to put a block off plate where mechanical pump is, as it can develop a pretty good oil leak when its diaphragm goes out.

It is possible the plunger control assembly in the IP could be gummed up. That would go along with it sitting for a while. You could try adding some solvent to the fuel and letting it cycle though in prime position.

Below is my file photo of an old Katz tank heater installed in a CUCV. This is not the way the directions say to install it, so do so at own risk, as they say. It is the way I found this heater installed on a well used 1008 I bought for a plow truck. That truck was parted due to rust and I...

Try a 1/4 or 3/8 inch drive short wobbly extension.

I agree, a clogged fuel filter will cause your symptoms. This may be you only problem. To test lift pump, crack black plastic valve at top of fuel filter base. Usually there is short tube coming off that. Put tube (or add if needed) into jar and crank motor with valve at top of filter base...

Yes, be aware there are multiple mistakes in the TM's for these units.

Have an 002a with ASK and additional muffler. It is about as quiet as an MEP-802a. The one on pictured on these two generators is is a OEM surplus 6.2 muffler I had around, but lots of others would work. An 002 or 3 without an ASK and with additional muffler will be quieter, especially from a...
