Thanks Ray, I will look at it tomorrow. I ran it today for a 1/2 hour to get it up to temp to be sure the oil pressure stayed good and the vent louvres opened. All was good and I got the frequency set and voltage adjusted. Also got that monster switch set right on the Gen1/Gen2 control box.

Just went out to check the wiring and all is well, spotlessly clean in there also. I will check the voltage tomorrow, what kind of reading should I see on the DC side with it running? I am assuming that it would not show frequency on a handheld standard meter.

Thanks guys, for that price I guess it is worth a try. I am going to open up the control box first and make sure all the wires are connected and tight. But I believe you are right because the gauge does glitch over when I first start but then does nothing.

You created a monster Carnac! :ROFLMAO:

I will look it up tomorrow, I know I should look up in the manual where the transducer is but can you clue me in and save me some searching?

Are the transducers available at a reasonable price? If not I will simply go aftermarket and bypass the transducer.

I just picked up a 003 with 8 hours on the clock. This thing appears to have been mothballed after testing since the convenience outlets were taped over, fuel tank and filters were bone dry and clean besides some rust from condensation. Once I soaked the pump in acetone and changed all of the...

If you go to the top of the generator forum , on the right top you will see a button that says "post thread". This is where you start a new thread. If you go to the top of this thread you will see in small type about the thread title the list of the forums where this is located. Just click on...

That was a subtle hint from Guyfang about starting a new thread for this so I will wait for that thread to say anymore.

The trailer nomenclature will be on the tag on the trailer tongue. It would be a 116, 105 or 101 most likely and I believe the only one of those that had jack was the 105 which is a deuce and a half trailer with 6 lug, 20" wheels. Does this jack have a heavy duty double steel wheel on the bottom...

You really should start a new thread. But a single 802 would have come on a 416 trailer would it not? They did not have a jack leg, just a drop leg.

Thanks for the heads up, I get a message there that I do not have sufficient privileges' to reply. "You have insufficient privileges to reply here." No idea what that is about, But I sent him a PM so hopefully he gets back to me.

And as far as asking more questions, as long as they are all related to the original post then just go to the bottom of thread under the last reply and you will see a box for a reply. If you click on the reply button in someones post then you are quoting them as an answer to their post.

The pumps will not stop because the IP is bypassing some fuel back to the tank. So it never builds up enough pressure to stop. If it does stop you have a blockage somewhere. Take the fuel cap off when you turn that switch on and you will hear fuel trickling back into the tank.

Sounds like someone was already working on it and gave up. I plan to eliminate all of those military filters and put a more modern filter/water separator on mine.

If the filters were that bad you should disassemble the fuel pumps and clean the filters in them, they are probably just as bad.

The capacitor is only there for radio noise suppression. The military grounded and suppressed everything, I mean EVERY THING.

You can get all kinds of auto reset and manual reset automotive breakers. Plus panel mounts. Here is an Amazon link to their selection...

I don't know the codes but I do know that replacing the batteries twice in a few months and then sending out for disposal would tell me it probably has a charging problem. DC voltage regulator issue? I am sure you will be hearing from Guyfang since this was his wheelhouse.

Sometimes those breakers just get weak and will trip under very little load. If the pump tests do not show anything you might want to look into replacing the breaker. And the float switch is for the float in the fuel tank that triggers the Aux pump to refill the day tank when running from a 55...
