Went to Lake Butler today to pick up a 831a generator, I called prior to give them a heads up. When I arrived Eric already had my gen on the forklift ready to load.
Very nice guy, guess he was at Albany yard previously. Anyways big shout out to Eric , thank you sir!
Peace...
Hey folks, thought I'd do a review of my experience of trying to keep my 831a mobile.
When I first acquired it , I put it on a 40"x48" trailer and intended on parking it next to my 803a on the power end of my house. After finding out how fickle these 831s are to moisture, I moved it into...
Hey fellas,

I think Guyfang quoted one time " If you don't have Popeye forearms", you can reach in through the fuel filler and reach the float switch to check if it's stuck in the low position.
003A's are getting far and very few on the auction sites. 803A's are still available, pretty pricey if they run, + 10% + state & local tax & GPs credit card fee. Then your recovery/shipping fees. I would recommend just looking at the above mentioned fellas offerings. If you can get by with...
Where are you located, I'm in Summerfield Florida. From what I've seen at auction lately, were pretty beat up and high prices and far from southeast. Jimmy has good units at fair prices. Perhaps he would part with one of those 003s that need work. I'd be willing to help you fix it up, I'm...
