The strainer is a water filter. It is big bucks. the Wix you found doesn't look like the OEM item. I may be able to hook you up with a used one. Jerry

Way to go Andrew. You will really feel great if you have been able to solve your own problem. Jerry :grd:

Welcome from Virginia. :grd:

I think you are wasting your time if, as you described, you are only doing testing and exercising. I doubt it can be cleared with the authorities and the power company without some serious investment on your part. Jerry 2cents

I believe when cranking clockwise the marks you are looking for are about 10 degrees before the "A" mark. Jerry

A friend in the HVAC field gave me a squirrel cage on its way to the dump. it has 2 5kw emergency heating strip heaters in it and when running, the squirrel cage keeps the heater strips from burning themselves out. I tested my best 002a sunday on 5 kw (70-75% on the load meter) then added a...

If you have a nut cracker, you probably have picks. Nut picks with their curved ends work well fishing out the copper gaskets. So does a bent piece of #14 solid wire. What I haven't found is a source for new copper gaskets, nor a source for the plastic gasket inside the IP under the cap and...

Yah, this ain't gasoline!

Thanks all. So I guess all 4 of my boards are correct for their intended applications. I'm glad I happened to notice the difference in them and didn't send out an inappropriate board. Because the board was loose in the 003a when I got it last year, I suspected someone stuck something...

HUH? I checked my other working 002a's and they both have the 72-5338 board in them. Wonder why they work?:shock:

If you are getting no AC, have you flashed the field with the starting switch held far to the right after the unit fires (fir 5 or 10 seconds?

WOW! A break through! The price of 004a's is going UP.

yes sir, I think there is. Jerry:beer:

Keith, You are sure right about small fingers. I can't get in there at all.

thanks Keith. I'll try NAPA. Jerry

forgot to address the oil cooler, it looks fine. jerry

thanks. i tried the gentle tap but will try again with a bigger gear puller (if i can find one) that doesn't rely on the small bolt pattern 5/16', i think. too light for the job and puller's bolts pulled the threads out of the fan.

Guys, I am frustrated today. My "pride and joy, jewel of a generator" with a "slow" oil leak up front showed it's true problem today. I have 4 meps in various states, Parting out an 003a and getting ready to part out an 002a. trying to get the 3rd one (002a) running and thought I had the...
