I use that stuff on every machine! All it takes is some motor oil (normally used from the oil change within arms reach from working on said machine) on the barb ends and they go together relatively easily. Definitely not as loose as the leaky Continental, but much more readily available.

If you had to run the set with the bad CR1, you could make a small alligator clip jumper cable to go from the RH leg to the LH leg and bypass the diode itself. I neglected to tell you that the testing was with the S1 in prime (and I assumed the DC was set to NORMAL, which was a mistake). Glad...

@Ray70 is a busy guy, but I am certain he can get you squared away with some high quality upgrades for the filtration.

Look what the cat dragged in... good to see you around these parts Rusty

The bottoms of the fuel pumps are removeable, and there should be a filter screen in place. If your pumps or separator and filters are clogged, it would have run a short time and died. The three 'cans' on the side of the set are the separator and the (2) fuel filters. If this is an important...

I've had in maybe a dozen air cooled sets over the years, and the only shutdown failures were due to LOPS. Never once the shutter switch.

Surely NOT by accident. Richie bros has no scruples.

If you can't put a load on it, no reason to even start it. The marginal gain of circulating fuel through the filters can be accomplished just by letting the set prime for the equal amount of time. If you have room for a free electric range (craigslist, FB marketplace, side of the road, etc) they...

Well I've used HQ for parts before, and they are never OEM... they are knockoffs for the items I have purchased. They have been of sufficient quality though. It doesn't help you right this second, but you should inquire with https://www.sleeman-hawken.com in the UK. They carry true OEM parts...

Are these OEM pumps or aftermarket?

And that little change could have been the reason why this machine left the pool.... funny, right?

That would be giving me too much credit :ROFLMAO:

I want to give Ray my utmost thanks. I've been dealing with some challenging carpal tunnel issues for a few months now, and I asked him if he would be willing to help me with a couple of 802s that I have had sitting (since I am completely unable to work on machines at the present time). He has...

I think there are a number of unanswered questions in this thread already that would be beneficial towards narrowing the help.

If the gauge is reading true, I would question the integrity of the voltage regulator. But a simple multimeter into the outlet while the gauge is dancing will tell you definitively if its the gauge or something else.

But think of how great the fuel efficiency will be at only 300RPM... where do I sign up?

Been quite a few 400hz anchors coming up lately. Maybe indicative of what's left in the surplus pile more than anything that they are starting to move out.

How many 803s you want to buy BACK at what you sold them for? Thats the real question....

Glad you are happy with it Bruce! Once a month, with a good load for 30 min to an hour (min 50%, as close to capacity as you can manage even better), should be sufficient. There is no right answer, but do keep the fuel in the machine fully picked with antigel, biocide, and your favorite...

Yeah go with filters and clean out the prefilter on the pump if present. Water seperator too. After all thats done, prime the pump and disconnect at the end of the hard fuel line and see if you are getting fuel into the return system.
