I picked up this 831a a few months back and the thing ran wide open 24/7 and then the inverter died after maybe 10 mins of use...fast forward to this weekend I purchased a governor controller and new inverter from kurt and have had no issue's runs properly even ran entire house on a 30 min test, however I have been pull starting it as I have not been able to pick up batteries yet. I decided this morning to see how it starts in the cold and jumped it off my 803a and for some reason the arm will not release from the magnet to allow it to run yet if I manually do it it works fine (as shown in video) surely this is not intended operation and was curious if it is not what needs to be done to correct it?
I have adjusted everything per the instructions from Kurt given the new governor controller (5/16 away no load etc), secondly is there a way to test the fan on the back and lid of the machine? I assume they turn on at x temperature but it is so cold here I'm not able to get it hot enough or they are not working.
