Ah, yes! When the rubber adhesion of #17 fails, #20 falls down until it hits #19 and the engine now sits crooked. Still works and runs fine, just looks wrong because it's crooked.

here you go...

Maybe we can get you pics. On the 002 / 003 the bond is the ONLY thing keeping the motor and gen sitting correctly because the mounts are sideways so the weight is in a shearing action trying to shear the rubber off the metal housing. Being that the housing is hollow, once the bond breaks the...

Hold on... the pumps in an 802 / 803 make the same sound all the time. They do not slow down once the system is correctly primed. They are different than the magnetic plunger pumps in the 002/003 which slow down to a slow click once the system if full and primed. Unfortunately the pumps in an...

Wow, great to know. I use the same size filter ( not Fram for personal quality reasons ) on my Case backhoe, 2 60's era Mustangs as well as the 002/003 spin on filter conversions. I have 2 dozen NAPA 1515 filters on hand, so I'll start using them on my liquid cooled's for extra capacity! Thanks...

Not that I have tried it personally but where I work we buy precision ground rubber rollers. The manufacturer takes the aluminum core, molds on the 80D rubber then freezes them and grinds the OD to precision tolerances. Drilling cutting and machining rubber really sucks. I wonder if freezing...

You should crack open the Banjo bolt coming out of the fuel filter housing. Upon turning S1 you should have immediate flow at the loosened banjo bolt. If not, you will need to start checking your fuel delivery system. If your system is draining back, simply turning on the pump and letting it...

Good work Scoobyshep. I've run across a few 003's with broken mounts. I think it's probably due to "Agressive handling" and the additional weight of the 4 cyl. motor, It's a pretty poor design, relying heavily on the adhesion of the rubber to the metal outer rings. I've repaired a couple by...

In addition to the pump lever possibly being sticky also check that the arm isn't rubbing on the hole in the sheet metal where it passes through up into the top portion under the "Close to Run" cover. Have your wife crank it and see if you can give it a little help with your finger. If it's...

You should not be expecting a jet by any means. You will barely get a tiny little dribble ( although it would be at high pressure if you were able to fully contain it. But the volume is so small that you will barely notice any volume at all. I think you may be expecting too much and may...

I just used the make offer and grabbed 2 to stick in the parts inventory. As for "Matched sets" whenever I replace a transducer or gage I always wire up a cord and use Utility power to set the " system" to about 59.5 hz. ( around here the utility is just shy of 60hz. This way I now have a newly...

If you end up pulling off the manifold, look into each of the 4 exhaust ports and see if any look wet or with more carbon buildup than the others. Then start the machine and load it up. Look at the 4 ports and see which one is causing the smoke. ( use a flashlight if necessary to highlight the...

KKlop can surely help you with this issue, but it sounds to me like your speed control rod adjustments may be incorrect or more likely the jam nuts may have loosened and the rod adjustment may be vibrating out of position. The TM covers how to adjust the rods for the speed control. On the...

Usually once you get them cleared out you should have virtually no visible smoke until pretty close to or sometimes even above 100%. You will vary slightly from 1 machine to the next, but in general you should get pretty close to 100% load with not much smoke. If you see smoke coming on way too...

Nice looking hood setup. Couple questions, have you since changed the exhaust pipe config? The video looks like you are susceptible to water getting in the pipe ( no flapper or 90* bend etc. ) Only other question is me wondering if the smoke shown in the video cleared up throughout your load...

Nice! I've had a rash of transducers that peg the gage high recently. Since I have run out of spare transducers I've been using these cheap direct read Chineese gages I get for like $10 , but they are cheesy plastic crap. I would prefer to keep the original Ruggedized gages! I'm off to purchase...

Hello, Those are the high pressure metering pumps. How are you checking the fuel volume and what exactly are you experiencing? When cranking you will only get a tiny spurt of high pressure fuel from each pump once every 2 revolutions of the motor. Please elaborate on how you are testing and what...

In many states you can legally register small trailers without the SF97 and in several states a dedicated generator trailer is exempt from even needing to be registered, as long as you only use it to transport the generator. Some other states also are exempt if teh GVW is under something like...

I believe you will find lots of lists of required spare parts already posted here on the forum. However, the best and cheapest approach ( prior to the recent spike in prices) may be to only stock a single spare PN. That PN is MEP-803A (y) ( a backup machine )

Anything is going to bond to the CARC as long as it is in good sturdy condition, clean, sanded and not peeling or anything. Once any type of paint is fully cured, the next paint job bonds mechanically not chemically. Paints only bond chemically before their recoat time has elapsed, ( such as...
