Thanks to Guyfang here, Potomac Rubber was able to sell me the air filter gaskets! Though the gaskets were a special order material and Potomac Rubber only sold them in full sheets. So I could buy the small quantity I wanted or I could buy the whole sheet and it was the same price. Well, so I...

If anyone cares, the holes in this voltage regular will fit a #10 screw, but the riveted threads on top are for 6-32 machine screws. I would say I purchased longer screws on purpose but the local hardware store didn't have 1-3/4" long, pan head 6-32 machine screws, so I purchased 2" and added...

The o-rings I purchased from Amazon were NOT a good fit. They were too thick and I could not get the oil strainer to seat: Searching around I found WH&E HARDWARE STORE on eBay sold genuine OEM o-rings but they were NOS. Yanmar Part Number: 24341-000224 These were noticeably thinner but...

Not surprising, my air filter is dirty, in need of replacing, and the pre-filter is partially falling about. The air filter consists of two parts, the interior paper element in the metal housing: Yanmar P/N 114250-12581 (958142) And the Air Pre-Filter, or the outer foam cover: Yanmar P/N...

As mentioned earlier, for easier, and less messy oil changes, I received and installed an oil drain valve: Fumoto F108N M16-1.5 thread https://www.fumotousa.com/f108n.html ‘N’ for the extended nipple for a drain line, so don’t forget to buy the 3/8” clear vinyl tubing too. It was a close, but...

Yessir, there are. There are two screws and I believe one is the bleeder for the inlet and the other is for the outlet (but I'm sure you know that, ha). I also received my order of Yanmar fuel filters I purchased off eBay Fuel Filter Element w/ O-Ring Set: GS-3021-1: Fuel Filter Element...

That's the thing, the fuel filter doesn't appear to be some aftermarket part, it is a Yanmar part - though said part could still have been put on later, but the 686 Tan paint on the filter housing matches the rest of the unit... :shrugs: At least this filter housing also appears to be...

Happy New Year! I drained the fuel tank by placing the supply hose going to the injection pump into a clean #10 can (took 2 cans as tank was full). I then tipped the generator backwards and placed a 4x4 under one side. The stock fuel tank bushings read "Made in Canada" with, I assume, the part...

You're a scholar and a gentleman. Thank you!

Definitely good advice! But I'm not sure where to get the spark arrestor or the rubber plug at the bottom (to filter) and top (fuel return) of the tank. But now, looking at the photos on my computer, there might be readable numbers on the plugs I'll have to inspect closer in better light. As...

On December 9th I made a ~6 hour round trip up to Jerome, Idaho and bought from a police officer an MEP-531A he was tired of moving around for years and hadn't had it running in just as long. Hour meter at time of purchase: 274.9 hours The front panel needs some repair and it is only held on...
