I didn't add the fan load specifically but the amps the load bank says it's drawing match my clamp meter to the 10th of an amp so the load bank automatically adds the fan load or it's so small as to not matter. Thanks for the suggestion though. I've a couple times forgotten to use the 1.732...

I thought I might have found something. When I checked the valve clearance it seemed pretty off one pretty tight and the other loose but it's doing the same thing with the adjustment. I think I'm going to have to just go through the fuel system one thing at a time until I figure it out. I...

For a little more description. When I got it the reason it wouldn't run is a rat called it home and had chewed the wire to the fuel pump. I cleaned all the rats nest and fixed the wire and am now trying to get it running perfect. I feel lucky I got one with a working inverter.

Hello. I finally have time to tinker with all the gens I bought. So the 831A runs nice and holds load up to about 2kw. At 2kw it acts like my 803 at 10kw. It holds it and smokes just a tiny bit. When I add say 500 watts it starts smoking pretty good and doesn't like it. If I try 3kw black...

OOps

Awesome! Thanks a lot for the info. It sure looked like it should work. Is it already the right fittings too? I'm definitely going to do it now. Thats a really nice trailer but it should have brakes.

Awesome. Thanks for the info. It looked like it should work. Good to know.

I don't know that the pics help much

The tank on my 804 is about 8.5 inches where the float mounts

I do have a couple other trailers. And I've thought about mounting the tank on the front sideways in front of the gen also. Heck I've got an M1101 cargo trailer I could use to haul the tank around with too. Lol I can't make up my mind. I do see it would be possible to mount the tank above the...

So I said I would get more pictures of the brake system on that trailer. It really does seem like it wouldn't be that hard to modify it to work without air and mostly with still using the parts that are there. That link I posted was just for an example of something that might work not...

So I guess if it's the fuel tank on the vehicle it is in a different category and exempt?

Maybe I need a smaller tank or at least a was to know I'm not over the 119. Then I will be sloshing more.

Thats great information to have!

I am really surprised and impressed with the way these military trailers carry loads. I stuck about 1300LBS in one of the M1101 trailers and it was a pretty tall load. I was expecting it to squat some and prepared for it to be kind of squirrely. It was rock solid and stable as could be. I've...

Hydrastar® Marine-Grade Electric Over Hydraulic (EOH) Brake Actuator Surge Brake Conversion System (1600 PSI) I was wondering if this might be able to go where the air system is now and function the brakes with the trailer brake system. Anybody know if that might work?

Thats a good point. These military trailers are very overbuilt though. The tank has baffles but it doesn't eliminate it. Thats why I'm bringing it up on here so I get lots of angles. If I mounted it above the Gens it would change and wiggle my center of gravity quite a bit. That trailer though...

I wonder if the air could be replaced with a surge brake type mount. I have been wondering the same thing. Since they are hydraulic actuated pads you would think it could work. I'll take some pictures of the brake system so you can see it also. I'm really happy to have picked up this power...

I see the load bank display was pretty in sync with the frequency of the camera and showed nothing.
