R Racing is correct, the legs of three phase are 120 degrees out of phase. Single phase are 180 degrees out of phase. You need to set up the unit to run at single phase 120/240 and then check to make sure you're getting 220/240 voltage in your breaker panel across L1-L2. You need to start...

Well, then, you have to know about the place at the bottom of the steps that sells the Rauchbier! Man that was some good stuff!

Haa, it's something how you have to cut the wires to keep people from digging stuff out of the trash and putting it back into service. You should have also bashed the heaters with a hammer! LOL

Ratch, can you tell me where you found that information? Normal math would indicate a 10 kw unit. I'd like to understand how they came up with that calculation.

That thing doesn't even seem to struggle at all at 120% load.

You got a sweet generator out of this deal. Gotta Love it!

I've never heard of putting oil in the cooling system after the coolant has been drained. It seems unlikely the military would do that because it's an extra step that would cost money. If you find out this was indeed done and why, I'd certainly like to know the theory behind it.

How much does he know about electronics, wiring and these units? How much load did he put on the unit or what all did he try to power at once? We really need more information to help. An 002a is only 5kw. In the grand scheme of things, that's not a lot of power to run a house with AC...

That's an excellent idea.

I also found so forest green paint camo at Home depot that was a perfect match for my MEP-016B. I believe it was Rustoleum brand.

Oh well, it was worth a try. I think I'd do the same as you and try to adapt something else in it's place.

You might want to mic the cylinders and pistons after you get all the honing done you are planning to do. You could end up with some piston skirt slap if you hone too much out of the cylinders.

Thanks guys, I'll have to do some testing on this unit. It was rebuilt but obviously the guy didn't get something right.

There's always a trade off. Diesel is supposed to be good for 5 years, but Gas, doesn't last 6 months. Diesel would be much cheaper than propane to operate.

Hey Rusty, Have you ever seen the end of a glow plug swell up to the point it's hard to get it out of the hole? I have an old international tractor that does that on one cylinder. I can't imagine what causes that. Have you ever seen that and have any idea what could cause it?

I did a little reading up on easements today before I responded earlier today. I was surprised to learn they can be written up to have many stipulations and restrictions. The example you used with your Grandfather is an excellent one. That easement only allowed foot traffic. Now that one...

I I think I prefer the aerosol. I've never had the non-aerosol When it comes out it foams up and seems to suck into all the cracks and crevasses. A little of that stuff goes a long way.

I agree with the guys, a little 016E might be perfect for you. The yanmar engines are much quieter than the onan engines. Check the current draw of all your items and make sure you have enough KW to support it. On another note, I would get a copy of that easement and read it in detail...

Oh Boy!, if that doesn't free it up I don't think anything will! After you're done soaking it, don't throw the left over zeprepresure away. Save it. That stuff is like gold! I little dab will save your bacon in a pinch!

I finally remembered the name of the company that made this stuff. It's Plating Technologies in Warren, Michigan. I can't believe how hard it was to find his website. He really needs to work with his listings in search engines. Google and even dogpile.com came up with nothing. I just...
