I think you may be correct Sir, but I believe the 26A is for inductive loads and the 80% is for resistive loads? I read something on one of the threads here from an Electrical Engineering type person who is way smarter on this stuff. I know with the unit that I had that had cracked pistons, it...

My 803A smokes at hard pull power settings. I think a resistive 100% load on a 240v setting for an 802 should be something around 21 Amps (going by 5000W / 240 V= 20.8 Amps). You had that machine running at 145% capacity. I wouldn't run it at that level for any serious length of time, but you...

I recommend you do what Guyfang talked about; but if you aren't running the unit often, and when you do you aren't loading it down you will be prone to wet-stacking the unit. You may want to consider coming up with a load test device in your off-season time (i made one out of sheet metal and...

I've read on this forum that you can re-anneal the copper sealing rings for the injectors by removing them, heating them red hot with a torch, and letting them slowly cool down on their own; it allows the copper to get "soft" again for reuse if you don't have a set of replacement sealing rings.

Agreed with Guyfang's statement. A quick test is to pull the dipstick with the engine running and get a piece of paper (or plastic bag) and let it 'hover' over the dipstick tube. If it sucks down over the hole, all is well. If not, you have a ring sealing issue. I had a unit I bought from GP...
