Yes, we got it running but now it needs a 24V charging stator. I think I have a source for one or I can rewind the old one but finding time to get to it is the problem. In electrical stuff smoke generally means excessive heat which generally means excessive resistance. Make sure the wires...

Starters should not smoke. You should find out why it is smoking and make it stop. If there is evidnece that the IP has been off and it was missing injector lines then the injector pump timing is probably off. You can check for movement in the pump without removing it. There are good...

If you have 60Hz at 120V and the motor does not change RPM then you should have 60Hz at 240V. Check it with a good meter or KilAWatt thing. Frequency is dependent on motor RPM.

Prolly need a NATO cable end and cable. Or, you can get a 12V Yanmar starter or a starter off a Chinese Diesel gen (they use Yanmar clones). If your gen doesn't have a preheater I can sell you the one off my 016E. But, you'll need a 24V (or 12 if you rewire it, I think) battery to make the...

Mine has two keys. If you are not in a hurry I can send you one. But, I'm working a lot and may not be able to get it out for a week or two and you may have to remind me in a week or two. Send a PM if you can wait a little while.

We trimmed some down to use with XZL tires. They were rubber, about 5/8" to 3/4" thick. We trimmed them in a mill with a slitting saw. We used part of the rim to make a jig, tilted the mill head to match the original angle, and rotated the insert about the slitting saw.

You might be able to use a switch from a boat or auto with an "aux" position that is CCW from the off position. Turn the key CCW to pre-heat, then turn CW past off, past run, to start and settle back on run. Sea Dog 420375-1, for example. Google " 4 Position Ignition Switch" Or, some boat...

I dunno if mine has one or two keys. Whatever it has is chained to the unit. The guy in the other thread just locked his 30D36R up so he might be selling parts soon.

I have the TM and some consumer manuals for the motor, should be a Fuji or Wisconsin Robin 27, IIRC. I picked one up because it is the lightest Diesel gen, I think, at 178lbs. Also, they are 12V if you use a battery to start. They aren't milspec monsters like the MEPs, but I think they are...

IIRC the Yanmar on my 016D has a float switch in the Yanmar tank which controls an electric pump. There is a larger tank slung under the motor and one of the electric pumps takes from that tank and fills the Yanmar tank. The Onan single cylinder Diesel MEPs have an electric auxillary pump to...

The manual has several errors, or so I hear.

I would not worry about the resistor. You're probably good to go for another 30 years on that part.

Found one "Technology Research Corp" "Frequency Transducer 60 HZ" "13211E6901" "Part no. 10380" "Serial No. 012482" LMK if you need it. There should be at least one more around here somewhere.

The cap in the middle of pic 3 looks bad. When they distort and/or vent they are bad. Caps don't last as long as most other electronic components, in general. I'll bet if you replace that cap it will work fine. What gen is this for? I may have an extra if it is the same as a 016 unit. I have...

PM sent. One of my 701s(016E) and my favorite 016D both have a handy dandy pull rope. Yanmar FTW.

A commercial version of a Yanmar powered 3kW portable generator would cost several thousand dollars and not be as well made as the MEPs. MEPs are generally rated low by the military. A 3kW MEP will run 4kW loads all day long. I consider the generators available at Home Depot and such to be...

These are DI motors, aren't they? If so, you should probably have a copper gasket under the injector. See fig 7-45 in TM5-6115-585-34 The perpendicularity of the injector should be set by the cylindrical nature of the injector, adapter, and cylinder head. If you injectors are not square...

Currently have two 701As (for sale), one 016D(keeper), one 30D36R(smallest Diesel gen, I think), one 016E (5kW future project), one 003A (running but ongoing project).
