The Facet pumps were so hit and miss. This 831 only has about 270 hours on it and I got it fresh from reset with 2.5 on the meter. It had both primary and aux pumps that looked brand new. Sure didn't last long!
I'll order a couple of the e8131 to have on the shelf then. Thanks!
I've got an 831 that the original cube fuel pump is working only when it feels like it. I have 24v to it when it decides it doesn't want to run, so pretty sure it is the pump that quits. I had some replacement e1074 pumps but I have used them all up on 802/803 projects. Anyone tried the e8131 on...
I called a guy local on fb trying to dump one and get his money back. His ad said works great. I asked for what does it work great on being 400hz. I was blocked pretty quick. He was asking 5k for it.
Running a small load a lot didn't use that much fuel. I pulled from a drum so no way to know how much for sure. I will do a 4 to 5 hour run on a 10Kw load to burn off any wetstacking now though. That will use 4-5 gallons at that load
Yes. That was a close enough location that I could go inspect them ahead of time. Towards the end of gov liq selling them there about half of them that came in had locked up engines or other major problems that could be seen in 30 seconds. I could make a list of decent units, bid on them, and...
Came home from being out of town for a death in the family on Sunday. We were only home a couple hours and a nasty storm came in. Really high straight line winds went through for several hours. State rt by my house looks like a war zone. Large trees uprooted and all the lines are down. This is...
I used a section of thread pipe that had a flex in it like mentioned above. It takes care of vibration and removes the weight of the pipe off the muffler since I used hangers after the flex pipe
That is the cheapest I've seen anyone get one. Probably some others on here have done as good or better. I've seen 803s selling way higher than that lately
I had a few of these I tested and used for a load bank for awhile. I used a yellow butt connector to slip over the appropriate terminal to get around the expensive plug. I may have a picture of what pins I used but mine were 3 phase. Opening up the panel will show you right away which terminals...
I ran off of one of the existing relays in the control cube. I can't remember which one off the top of my head. I'd have to take a look. Just take a voltmeter and find a terminal that goes hot through all phases of the master control switch except for off. If you have the newer style relays that...
You need some movement in everything to get it all back together. Get all the bolts started before you snug them up. I've taped extensions to ignition wrenches with the nut taped in the box end on vehicles before when I couldn't reach
