Its in both the 2cyl and 4 cyl engine TM. 9-2815-253-24 ( 4 cyl. ) The funny thing i Just noticed is the 2 cyl. TM says to tighten down the rocker arms and let the motor sit for something like an hour if using old lifters and 1/2 hour if using new lifters, then dead crank the motor for 15...
It's actually very easy to fix a bent push rod using a bench vise and a straight edge or something flat to roll it on, like a piece of glass etc.
I bought 1 new one, then bent 3 more ( by failing to read the warning in the TM ) so I started straightening them rather than buying new at $18 a pop...
I agree with all above and especially DieselAddict. You really need to determine if the machine itself is working correctly or if your house load is excessive at startup. You may have issues with dirty switch contacts causing you to think you have a 20% load when you really have a lot more, or...
I've bought a lot of the Continental fuel line on Ebay. look for "5 Meter roll Continental German 3.5mm Fuel/Vacuum hose Diesel TDI" I get 5 meters at a time for $29 and free shipping, cheapest I've found.
BTW, I see you're in PR. I've sold about 8 machines to guys who have shipped them to...
Can't see exactly where your fuel lines are going, but something looks wrong in your pics. The fuel return line should go from the end of the fuel supply rail up to the first injector, then in-line T-fittings to each other injector then from the last injector's T-fitting ( where you show the...
The valve hitting the piston happens in 2 instances. 1) if your oil pressure relief valve gets stuck closed and oil pressure goes too high the lifters pump up just enough for valves to touch the pistons and usually bend the pushrods a bit. Luckily the valve hits flat and usually does not bend...
You mean you're going to take it out of the enclosure? There really isn't much you can remove per-sei unless you plan on dumping the %load voltage and Hz gages and using a universal voltage regulator.
If you go with a universal regulator and eliminate the gages you can get rid of a lot of...
Now that I have my head on straight... If you haven't bought the gaskets yet, I've been using a place on Ebay that sells the LPW4 full gasket kits for $90
You get everything. Now I see there are competitors selling the same kit as low as $67! That's way cheaper than others sell just the...
Wait a minute... forget everything I said! you have an 803A, I somehow thought you had an 003A. You don't have glow plugs in the head, only in the intake manifold... Sorry about that confusion!
Sounds good. if you can't find any dimensional drawings, just send me pics and dimensions of the injector you have. Also, let me know the approximate diameter of the center hole in the retainer plate that secures the injector into the head.
Well, there's a couple ideas that come to mind. If the adapter was as short as possible and it had a right angle or 45 fitting on the end with an 1/8" grease gun hose leading out to the gage, do you think that would fit? I can't say myself because I don't have a machine to look at. Otherwise...
Hey Chainbreaker, Its been a while since I worked on an 002 /003 but I know I have some new glow plugs left. I can take a look and see what would be involved in making an adapter to put in place of a glow plug and adapt it to a standard 14mm compression gage hose. I'll take a look at it and see...
Hello guys, I was wondering if I could your feedback as to if any of you working on the DN2M DN4M LPW2 LPW4 motors would have any interest in a compression gage adapter for these motors?
I made 2 for myself and they helped out a lot on several machines, so I was wondering if anyone else might...
Hey Dragracer, while you have the head off, take a good look at the condition of the glow plugs that are screwed into the head. If the machine has been outside and exposed to years of rain, sometimes the glow plugs will be rotted and frozen in. If so, the best time to fix them is while the head...
So can you guys give me the simple procedure to swap out a bad DN2M in an 802A? Is it necessary to dismantle the generator, of can you get inside somehow ( maybe starter hole or through the generator with a very long extension ) to remove the 5 bolts attaching the plate to the flywheel.
Looking...
Hey guys, ( CT-Mike in particular ) I've come across another 803 with an unrepairable fuel level sensor so I'm going to try one of the sensors boatman69 mentions above.
My question is length... on the 803 it looks like the tank's step-down is right at the side of the fuel sensor hole, so I'm...
There's a rocker arm on there right now too, $12 and free shipping! Maybe see if the same guy also has push rods from same motor.

Mayi Diesel ( Sales@MayiDiesel.com ) also on ebay has pushrods for about $18, they are also pretty easy to straighten yourself, if not mangled too bad. You can also ask them about a rocker arm, she told me they can get just about anything for those motors.
After reassembly, pay heed to the...
