It sounds to me like you may have a difficult time finding parts for something that old and not all that common. So getting them running may be problematic. Running and tested they're worth as much or as little as someone is willing to pay. They are probably not at all desirable for backup...

Hundreds of discussions about the subject here on the forum, but as Scoobyshep stated it's pretty much impossible with the 10 wire gen head.

Some good ideas in play there... For informational purposes, the spin on filter bases I make will also fit on an 004/005, without any adapter plates etc. These machines use the same Fram housing, just a longer canister and longer filter cartridge thank the 002/003...

Not sure how you are measuring things, but right off the bat I see a typo in the TM. It mentions a piston drop of .99" or 2.519mm 2.519mm is no where close to .99" it's probably supposed to say .099" but if you were at 2.519mm that is probably not your issue. Typically I just throw in 2 black...

Glad everything worked out in the end. Your plan to move in the 003 instead of the 004 is definitely the right move in my opinion.

I'd vote for a drop in replacement, assuming that would be the least expensive and easiest to swap out. ( especially in an emergency situation ) Expansion tank and a better filler neck design would be nice, but will no doubt add cost and complexity and I think many folks would prefer to keep...

FYI there's a sticky at the top of this forum with some tips on getting the pumps installed correctly. Quite often it can be a real bear if 1 thing is just slightly out of whack.

Interesting, it seems the PM system doesn't recognize you. Perhaps @patracy of @Guyfang can assist?

Hello, looks like you're too new here to send a PM, so I will contact you via private message with details.

Before slicing his nose and finger apart your father should have told him that he "heard" that peeing on the glue would help release it.... and IF that didn't work, the last resort is to cut them apart! :ROFLMAO:

I remember by grandparents buying some TANG when I was a kid... for when my brother and I visited them... it was like drinking orange flavored lumpy chalk! The super high chlorine content in the water really brought out the flavor!

How long do you typically let it set? This unit is a backup, so being down for a while is not a problem. I'd let it sit a week minimum, the more the better. Not sure of your machine's overall condition but being a 94' you should consider replacing the 3.5mm fuel return lines while you have the...

Interesting, never really thought much about differences in performance based on altitude, but makes sense. If you go the AFT route, just be aware that the center of the piston is a big giant dish, so you need to add enough ATF to fill and overflow the dish in order for it to get into the rings...

Do you get any light colored smoke for the first 30-60 seconds at cold start? Or just the normal quick 2 second puff of black at start up while the governor adjusts itself? If it smokes a little light gray/blue for 30-60 seconds, that's another indication of stuck rings = lowered compression...

Fuel lines at the pump and strainer are -4AN ( JIC-37*) If you need the hard line coming off the filter with the banjo fitting, I have that as well. if it's just your rubber lines going to the metering pumps that are leaking just cut the sleeves off and replace the hose with 1/4" rubber fuel...

I think you'll be the first to attempt a 12V conversion. Don't know of anyone ever going that route. Seems like a lot of effort for an unknown result and the risk or damaging more original components. Why not just repair it back to original? Doesn't sound like that big of a deal. If you need...

Can you send some pictures of the inside of the control panel? Maybe we can see what was done to the original wiring? Never seen anything like that before, only mod I've ever dealt with is the remote monitoring modification, which was usually neatly done and easily reversed.

Maybe you can better explain what you mean by surge? Is it having a hard time maintaining steady Hz while load is being increased? Or do the RPM's fluctuate up and down ( or hunt up and down )when not under load, or when the load is suddenly dropped? If so, that sounds like you need to adjust...

The lugs and receptacle are on 2 separate circuits in a sense. if the generator is showing power on the gage and no output from the receptacle, first thing I'd check is the GFCI reset on the face of the breaker. If that is not tripped, then check the circuit breaker switch for the receptacle...

Well you're getting there! It seems like 1 or more of the metering pumps is just on the edge of the fuel off position and may be letting a tiny amount of fuel reach the injectors. Verify the lever arm is touching the stop screw when you disengage the solenoid. If it in touching, try loosening...
