Take a picture of your gauge, several have put aftermarket gauges in that are not accurate. close but not close enough. Since you do not have a temp gauge this might be a clue

The way its running wide open also sounds like the governer gear is broken or when someone replaced the injector pump they did not get the lever lined up with the fork through the peep hole

Not real familiar with JohnDeere Engines, but has a critter crawled up and made a home causing a cylinder to fail or valve to stay open. Does this run contant or just when needed. Is the blowby as bad coming out of the oil fill cap as the dipstick?

Welcome Ohio Member where are you located?

I have been working on this Mep 701a it only has 106 hours but being as old as it is it needed some things. It came dry so fluids and filters, 24v battery was dead so i converted it to 2 12v batteries and replaced the 2 prong nato plug with the current plug because the wiring was so stiff...

If I read correctly you have run this Generator at 2 kw for 2000hours if that is the case is this thing wet stacked?

@simp5782 I think probably has take offs from parting trucks, that would be the easy button

Now to get the topic back on Former military equipment, Mep 802, 803 AMMPS 1030, 1040 for your next investment.

Kubota Generators are not supported by normal Kubota ag equipment dealers, and in my area no one sells them or has information, but i have many pieces of equipment Kubota branded and others with just Kubota engines, contact me by PM if you have questions

Does it start using the decompression valve and rope start?

First thing is to check the E-stop, lots of little things can contribute to them not starting. lets not fire the parts cannon before we truly diagnose the unit. give us some more information. One of the most frustrating things about all of these Yanmar single cylinder engines is without prime...
