I'm impressed with your work. Your homemade brackets look like they turned out well. However, do you consider 50 degrees ice cold air? That system should easily get lower than that depending on ambient air temperature. If you're running R134A, those head pressures seem way low. I see it's...

Geeze, that was back in the late 90s so I cannot recall. I suspect it was for a CJ5 -- I do remember purchasing the mount from Warn. I wonder if they make it anymore given that winch is obsolete? My electric one with the mount is still sitting in the shop -- I'll bet I put less than 5 hours...

This thread is great as Mike comes up with fantastic ideas - then I can poach them for my 5 ton! Al Jones Brookings, SD 07 M923 69 M105A2 55 M38A1 68 M416 64 CE-106-AC/WK

NSN = National Stock Number - this is the military's part number TM = Technical Manual (these contain troubleshooting, repair and parts information) Download TMs here: https://www.logsa.army.mil/etms/index.cfm, search for H-140 in the title Find NSN (or manufacture's part number if it's there)...

Download the TM's through LOGSA. There are two of them. I don't think (nor can I find them) in the TM Forum of this site. The fuel filter stuff is off the shelf. Find the NSN and cross to your favorite FLAPS part number. The bowl and filter are readily available. I carry a spare filter in...

I wouldn't get New Old Stock (NOS). I replaced my boots 5 or 6 years ago with a New Stock zipper boot with a part date within 18 months of my install. They are still performing great today. No cracks and still pliable. If you install them per the TM (overnight), the zipper is not an issue...

Please post pictures when you replace it. Al Jones M933

Given its intermittent, sounds like a bad connection to me, a short. Mine was at the computer connector. Without the code reader, I'd try the easy stuff first. Al Jones Brookings, SD

I've tried to answer very general questions as best as possible. Please ask specifics and I'll be glad to try and answer with specifics. A question like "how hard are parts to find" is like anything, "it depends". Not trying to be smartrear but a lot of folks on this list are supercharged...

Ex Strategic Weapons Facility Pacific (SWFPAC), formerly Naval Submarine Base Bangor (now Naval Base Kitsap), now engineering professor in South Dakota. I live very high tech by day so I really enjoy the low tech by evening. You can *see* and *feel* the old electrical stuff. To accentuate...

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...

One other thing that just struck me, use the wiring diagram ON the genset. The wiring diagram in my TM is close but I think it's generic. The one on the side of my genset must match my serial number and has been exact. I removed mine and keep it off the genny so it doesn't fade any more than...

See http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?36147-Gen-Set-CE-106-AC-WK-9 for the list of TMs. For parts use the -35P. Sometimes you get lucky and find it, sometimes you have to dig in and find an equivalent replacement. The distributor is not correct for the FS162 however is correct for...

I don't get the "Attached Thumbnails" on the last post tried to fix it but can't figure it out...? Al Jones

Here are some pics to finish things out. Proper disconnects (see switch handle in other photos) from the supply and what feeds the genny connection. This makes it easy to set up. I bought all the parts new off ePay for 1/5 to 1/10 the cost of new from, say, Graybar. The back end. I...

I did not measure fuel consumption on the Holgar when it was on the load bank so I can't tell you what it is. At the rated load, I suspect it is more than your Chinese unit as it was never built for fuel efficiency. However, if the load is bouncing around, it may be the same. Given the cost...

:-D Ya, a big wind storm came through and pushed some tress down over the high tension lines. We have 10 acres of trees next to the main line that were planted in the late 1800s so that probably qualifies as mature. :-D The great thing is everything is going underground so that problem will...

Oh, and some may ask, why the 100 amp set up at the pole? I over sized it in case the Holgar wasn't up to the task and I had to upgrade to a bigger genny. We have a ground source heat pump (aka "geothermal") that pulls 140 amps to start and then backs off to 14 amps when running. I saw no...
