It may smoke some but not a lot and it should not run rough. Are you sure the engine is a reman? Let it run about 10 mins and if its still running rough and smoking, you may have more issues.
You will need to unbolt the lug panel and push it to the side. Then take the center support off (inbetween the doors on the back) so you can get a puller on the rotor bearing, take the louvered cover off, take the four nuts off holding the stator (housing) to the motor, and finally just lift the...
I usually take the back half (radiator side) in one piece. Unbolt from the skid and pull that section with the radiator off. Then I leave the generator head bolted to the skid and use a 3 point puller on the back of the generator head to push the rotor out of the housing with the engine...
I would say you have air in the cooling system. If you don't get the air out it will overheat because the fluid is not flowing. Try taking the top radiator hose off and refilling through the hose. That will push all the air out the cap or thermostat housing.
Keep it. I was replacing a water pump one time and tapped the corner with a hammer to break it loose off the motor and cracked. One and only time but glad I had a parts unit.
This makes a lot of sense because he doesn't have a lot of experience with with the unit. So if he just releases the start switch as soon as it fires, its going to shut down due to low oil pressure.
Lower hour units will be super tight. Compress the spring on the bottom just alittle to see if it gets looser. You'll need to just keep cleaning and moving them back and forth multiple times (hundreds) LOL!
Yes, I've had several units with less than 10hours on them. Also had the documents inside the unit to prove the hours. My oldest unit was a 1994 with 17 hours.
I think your only option is heat if you caused that much damage so far. I've had several motors with the stuck flywheel as you. You need to apply heat slowly and tap with the hammer. Only way to get them off. I also use an impact wrench to slowly take it off.
It fits nice in the appropriate place, light in the dark lead me to the transducer and I tried it. It's been working perfectly for the last few weeks. When mounting, 2 of the original mounting bolts (holes) will work, you can use those 2 or you can drill 2 more additional holes so all 4 mounting...
I agree with the statements above. Loose connections and CVT1. Also check the R1 resistor on the excitor board and the transformer behind CVT1 (its in the back towards the left)
