There is no need for a vapor barrier on an outdoor slab. In fact, some say it can cause problems outdoors by trapping moisture from rain, that makes its way through the concrete, in between the plastic and the bottom of the slab. This can supposedly deteriorate the concrete or freeze in cold...

Shouldn't have the remesh wire touching the form, it should be fully encapsulated in the concrete, 2" min away from the form, but.. this is a generator pad, not the Washington Bridge.... :ROFLMAO: ( not sure how many of you are aware of the problem with the bridge on 195 in RI ) so it will be...

Almost... I believe Mainsail bolted the lower blocks to the pad then lagged the upper block through the frame and into the lower blocks. This will work fine, but gives you a bunch of unnecessary added height. I would put your bolts into the concrete with the thread up. Use bolts with washers...

Not to split hairs, but I would not go with 1/2" bolts. You are better off with 5/8" or 3/4" Mainly because these machines use a couple different length screws and 1/2" won't work in all positions, so why not get 1 size that fits all? For instance, on the rear panel around the fuel tank, several...

I usually just go on the internet and find 10-32 ( 5/8" or 3/4" long ) flange bolts and serrated flange nuts ( for places where you don't have the captive nut ) Either stainless or galvanized. They usually come in bags of 50 or 100 Think I've used ebay before and possibly Amazon. Pretty much...

Either one is better than pump diesel! Essentially the same product but without the added road taxes. Not sure on the price, but many carriers will also bring you off road diesel in a 55gl drum if you don't have a storage tank, but I can only assume it is substantially more expensive that way.

Home heating oil goes in everything diesel that I own. ( none of which are for road use ) Treated with Opti Lube XPD.

Yup, the good old Suzuki Samauri overflow bottle! AND, if any of you 802/803 guys out there need a cap for an OEM overflow bottle , head to Walmart, buy a 5Qt bottle of Super Tech Oil ( any viscosity will work ) this is the blue bottle / house brand Walmart oil. Use the oil for whatever you...

Looks to me like the last time the switch was on with batteries in it the set was running and had oil pressure. As soon as you turn the switch again oil pressure will read zero, so with it still reading 30 psi that means no one has touched it since the last time it was running.... ( unless the...

It was most likely neither of those 2 issues. The 802 doesn't have a DC voltage regulator, it has an automotive style alternator and they aren't being removed from service specifically due to age, condition or cosmetic damage. They are all being removed from service because they are being...
