I think so. Not totally sure. I took the float out and tested it's function while my wife started the gen. After that I was sure the float was ok. Reinstalled the float and made sure it seemed to have good clearance. Now all is good.
Ok,
Looks like I'm back to the drawing board. I installed new dual float switch and now I have a new problem. It's not tripping the breaker anymore. When set to prime and run, it stops after a few seconds. When I set it to start, it turns over, does not start than is unresponsive. If I set...
As I have been working on this I realized the original floats are foam and the new one has polymer floats. Why anyone would design a foam float to sit in diesel fuel for years, I don't know. Hopefully this one lasts forever.
Hello,
I just did this. With s1 in prime + Aux it works fine with aux pump unplugged and aux pump plugged in. Do I need to replace the double float aux fuel sensor? Can it be taken out and repaired? Thanks
OK,
Whenever I set the generator to aux fuel it runs for about 2 seconds then trips the breaker. House tank works fine.
My theory is that the pump is gummed up maybe from the leftover sesame seed oil in my drum?
Any other ideas?
