Searching through all my previous stuff led me to this. Here is an example of a spare part I wanted. It was toast so I refurbished it: AC regulator.
And here is the refurbished AC regulator (left) compared to the one that's in the genset (right).
I was able to rebuild the rectifier, find an equivalent controller and all I need to do now is install the choke transformer. I can change the whole unit in about 15 minutes and be back up and running.
I purchased the spare for about $15 on ePay. The diodes were the most expensive part of the refurbish.
