Have to say I have never seen this before. I've beat the hell out of pistons on stuck motors and couldn't bust them with sledge hammer. I have 2 spare heads available if you need them. I've also got some low hour 803a's available (craigslist and marketplace), I would give your money back $800 on...

Wont really know until you get the head off. Make sure you check your crank on that cylinder after you get everything cleaned up. Ill have to say Ive never seen a piston explode like that. But you still got a good deal on it in my opinion. Fuel pump $100, injector pumps $125 each, gauges $50-75...

You still got a good deal, the ones on govplanet you take the same risk but pay more. Yours parts alone are well over $1500.

Did you get that unit off of marketplace for $400? If so you beat me to it. LOL! Your going to need to pull the head and side cover off. I would do this before you try turning it over again, it sounds like a broken rod cap. Had this happen to me once and didn't dig into it fast enough and I...

Inside the pump is a grove that holds the plunger in place. You have to actually take the plunger out through the top (outlet side). The plunger can't be removed from the bottom where the spring is unless the inside of the pump is damaged. You'll never fix it, i've tried on different units. What...

The sender unit is 33-240 ohms. Take the wire off that is on the S position on the gauge and test. Light in the dark sells a NOS. Most of the time its the gauge.

Also google Delks army navy. They have alot of used parts for the 003a's

More than likely the exciter box or some call it the VR box. Its located on the starter side above the generator head. Its the box that has louvers. 99% of the time the T2 transformer fails and destroys itself. Usually you can look through the louvers to see if it looks burned inside. You can...

Before DavyGray posted here he contacted me. I referred him to Triple Jim but apparently Jim is not making the DC voltage regulators anymore. I've had similar problems with the NOS regulators, they work for a year or two and die again.

Have you been running the unit under load? How long has it run without a load? I would say nothing to worry about and run it hard. You may just be seeing the start of wet stacking.

Yes you can't have the pistons at TDC when installing the head. With a used motor you have to wait 45 minutes after torquing the rockers to re-torque for the hydraulic lifters. The broken arm on the injector pump is crazy because when I first started dealing with them , I bent the crap out of...

Placed my order for pistons on Friday, they processed it Monday and I should have them tomorrow. It still amazes me that we can get items from the UK in 3 days but it can take a week or longer to get something from the States. They used UPS and the shipping was only $75 for 2 pistons. I...

The .006 is your maximum clearance, so your initial measurements are perfectly within spec.

Thats awesome! I sent my request into the general mailbox before you responded with Sean's email address. After you posted his email, I contacted him directly but my order was already being processed by Natasha so he couldn't help. I placed my order early this morning (4am CST) but haven't...

Need to get the manual and read the procedures. The frequency adjustment knob that I assume you're referring to is the throttle which controls hertz. You need to get the hertz down to around 61. That knob controls it but the stop bolts may be adjusted improperly so check those. Follow the cable...

Yes sir those are the ones I need. I emailed them to order 2.

How did you order? Did you call or go through their email? Ive been messing with KraftPower which is a distributor for Sleeman-hawken for the past 3 days without success.

Loosegravel. Keep us updated on the shipping. Did they ship it from a US distributor or are they shipping from the UK?

I was dealing with Sleeman_Hawken from an ebay post. I got so frustated because I bought the .040 rings from them and asked about pistons. They said they had them and instead of sending me an invoice, they listed them on Ebay UK. they keep telling me it was an item on ebay so they didnt know why...

Wanted to share my experience with a similar problem. Been working on this unit. Would start after a few tries. Smoked bad and would clear with a slight haze. Load test to 50% smoked really bad. Couldnt get over 70% and it had bad back pressure in the crankcase. Finally took the exhaust manifold...
