Looks like some nice lines! I had mine repaired pressing on new hose,,, probably should just replace them entirely...I have seen the cooler unhooked from the radiator before and it is usually a leaking or low flow cooler inside...the cooler hooked up now hopefully is a big one that has a...
Stall matts... great idea!...mine sits on 2 birch logs since I'm close to a water pit! It is bolted to those though...not sure you need to bolt it to the concrete...they really can't move on their own...very heavy! Won't vibrate away or move at all...matts would just keep that ground vibration...
If you're worried about the genset being so loud it will bother the neighbors I don't think I'd worry about it much...they are pretty quiet...you can hear it but it's not crazy loud like a car revving its engine...only thing I'd add would be some kind of insulation between it and the concrete...
I buried all the wire, mounted my switch so all that was left was hooking up the wires to the switch and genset...paid 850...but I had everything done...was there about 4 hours...was 2 guys.

That makes sense to use an outside setup, probably way easier to setup without trying to change the system inside. You know if you can hook up a solar panel to it without a controller? I think it would hook up like a 12 volt charger to the internal batteries...I would hate to smoke it....says...
Transfer switch meaning turning off line power and going to generator power? I used a Ronks transfer switch...should be able to search my thread out with it in it.

Anyone hook a solar panel to one of these yet? I've read this entire thread and don't see that yet. I haven't found another thread about these on here so I thought I'd ask here...can start new if need be. I see it can use a 28 volt 10 amp max setup...with tech as fast as it's moved since the...
A guess I'd have with the noise when starting could be that the starter isn't in there straight, needs shimmed or something in those lines...looks like a new or rebuilt starter...could just be a bad one too...since you're not new to this stuff treat it like you would any starter issue...nothing...
What I have done with those before is remove the wire that was burned from the fuse box and fix it or replace the wire end as it usually has burned up insulation then open up the plastic fuse slot so a new fuse can go in there...if the wire socket is melted and the wire just pops out then use...
Ok you just wrote your answer...the one in the yellowed bag was used or a return...probably had a deisel smell too...I've seen that a bunch...someone gets a new one and returns the old one saying it was wrong...company sells old part not knowing it...plastic bags don't turn yellow unless out in...
I am not sure about 2 problems until you get the one injector that isn't working right...since you swapped it left to right and the smoke traveled with it that injector would be a issue....any chance they sent you a wrong one but boxed right? I think they are marked to show lbs or injector...
Please don't take this wrong as I highly respect all the info you give on here but I disagree with not having the pickup off the bottom of the tank. The reason is with my one tank that had the pick up from the top to about 8 inches from the bottom filled up with water and junk over time then...
I put a tilt steering in mine that I got out of a 1992 blazer...paid 50$ for it and had the key in it ready to go...my 15 year old son swapped it out by himself...not hard at all...can get the linkage lined up right at the same time as long as the transmission is ok. I needed the tilt...the...
I have a 803 with 2 275 gallon home heating oil tanks feeding it...they have the drain at the bottom so I hooked to that with a shut off and filter then steel line to the genset...works great.
I doubt the filter will be much resistance then at that flow rate...the tank is 5 gallons I think on the 802 so it doesn't take much....just thinking of keeping it primed or getting it that way...you'll know once the genset calls for fuel! Mine is gravity so I haven't had any problem feeding...
As long as your aux pump can pull it through it won't hurt having extra filter capacity...maybe a priming ball to get it going or a cheap carb 6lb electric pump if need be...they are cheap...can run the pump off the aux pump wiring so when it turns on it'll turn on the filter pump too. Dig the...
Have you tried to turn the headlight switch that you pull out to turn on the lights? Clockwise should make them bright and counter should make them dim.
