    Thanks folks for the assistance. When I got the 804 it ran poorly. I found a dry rotted split fuel line. I replace and primed the system. Ran well with some sporadic short term chugging for an hour or so while I had the coolant circulate. I had it connected to a small load, several lights on in...
