    I am trying to find original part due to the amazon cable is larger diameter and won't fit into the nuts that hold the cable. Also there is a fixed cable end on the original that fits the throttle plate. May have to try the amazon one if I strike out. The water temp gauge started working after...

    Don't know if you can see it in the pic but the frequency control knob-button is missing. The spring is broken. I'm still able to adjust it by twisting but it's not functioning correctly. Ordered a new one from Armyproperty.com NSN 2990-01-385-9030. No picture of this part anywhere. Cross...

    Ran it for about an hour and a half. Looking for an apartment size electric stove/oven for a load bank. Will run it under load soon when I find load bank. So far very happy with this unit. More later.

    The water temp gauge was acting a little crazy. Jumped back and forth a couple times then went to the max and stayed there before the engine got warm. After about an hour the temp was reading 190-200. I'm not sure if it's working or not. Put in fresh Rotella 15-40 and prestone coolant. Also...

    MOV is on the way thanks to kloppk. Reference the o-ring on the fuel filter, I switched them and used the best one on the outside-no leaks. I thought I could get by without changing the injector hoses as they looked pretty good-WRONG. One had a severe leak so I changed them and all is well...

    Ran the part numbers on google, amazon etc. Looks like a baldwin filter has the o-rings included $11.00 ??

    Where can I find the small rubber o-ring on the bottom of the fuel filter bowl ?? The one on the inside is good but the one under the bolt head is shot....Can I simply switch them ? Looks like it will leak if I leave it as is...Not really an o-ring more like a rubber washer. Part # 19 on the GMG...

    Ground off part of the ear of the right side wing nut that latches the control box door. It was hitting the gauge and wouldn't turn. It's the little things in life...
