A quick search for the Baldor parts turned up several possibilities such as this one - https://sleequipment.com/generac-genuine-part-bp5255br00sp-brush-h-2576-hzd-1200-9000.html#product_tabs_additional_tabbed

From a quick search that phone number doesn't go to Baldor now. Based on this article they sold off their generator stuff to Generac a few years back - https://www.bizjournals.com/milwaukee/news/2013/10/07/generac-acquires-baldor-generator.html.

That is more than a little cool. :)

Most important thing first - Don't use either on these things. It is very bad for these engines. You will crack the piston at the top ring lands. When you say lift pumps are you talking about the 4 pumps along the side of the engine with the hard lines going up to the injectors? Those are the...

They seem to go in waves. I've not seen a specific pattern. More sporadic. I don't think you'll see any more on GL. The contract for that kind of equipment went to one of the other liquidation companies. The downside is the prices on IronPlanet are MUCH higher than what they were going for on...

Super nice looking machine.

We don't know for sure yet how many issues you have. We have to solve them as they come. Nothing will work with the low fuel alarm active. To test you can jumper across the switch at the tank to simulate a closed switch. See if that gets you control power (24v DC) to run the unit. If jumping...

Found one! :)

I was going to post a screen grab of the connection in the TM but when I open it its so bad I can't read it. Totally unusable. I need to find a more legible copy so I can put it on the list to restore.

Yea, that is sucky. Glad to see you are making progress.

No jumping required. Just unplug it and go.

Your low fuel switch could be bad. Pull the cover over the tank and unplug the 4 pin flat plug going to the switches. See if the pump runs.

Its funny what you mention the alternator being wired up wrong. I had one that was also wired up wrong and in my case the diodes in the alternator were blown. This one came directly from auction with a fresh reset in that condition.

Yes, a simple switch. Single pole single throw is all you need. Could be an old light switch or a fancy lighted toggle switch. Build an arduino microcontroller to sense when the power goes out and close a relay. Pretty much anything you like. Connect the two wires together and the generator...

I would recommend buying the third party auto-start that is specific to the MEPs and install a switch next to your breaker panel to start the generator.

I plan to drive down for a day to admire all the green.

I use the cheap batteries for testing but not for online operation. A couple of times I've had people insist I leave the test batteries in there as a condition for purchase. I'm always resistant to that. When they insist I make sure they understand those batteries have limitations and will...

The 5 and 10kw machines are totally different. That information is of no value to you for the 16b. Have you been able to download the TMs? You should right click them in the post where they are listed and save them to your computer before trying to open. Your browser may not open them. Until...

Make sure its on not more than a 20a breaker.

Is that connector on the quad box lead a 20a?
