    It looks like a cap from a metal halide ballast. what is it wired to? if the resistor is paralleled to the cap the resistor is a bleed off it slowly drains the cap when there is no power applied

    The way he described it, It sounds if he had permanently tapped the windings

    Craig tulls drawing (003A)

    Ah so the your machine is already modified? Circled M is a meter Volts is directly reading the output voltage amps is reading the induced field for amperage through CT1 and CT2 CT 1&2 are transformers, they are taking the high current and making it...

    Should already be setup for single phase 120/240. Is your avr bad? And what part of the drawing do you need explained? Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

    The tale of an '003A

    Congrats on venturing into the mysterious world of injection pumps. Lifting can be a bit wonkey, my 003 came off the transport trailer partially by sliding, tilting and the assistance of an engine hoist. bout a month later it ended up on a new trailer, engine hoist and hand winch...

    Other thing to remember, the breaker rating it the trip point. They are ment to be loaded to 80% maximum umder normal circumstances Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

    smoke can be bad timing, it can also be wetstacked. Check the TM for the timing procedure (theres marks on the flywheel and IP) if its timed right you might just need to burn the crap out of it.

    10 awg 12 awg and 14 awg actually are rated higher than 30 20 and 15 respectively. In the ampacacity tables of the nec theres a foot note that restricts them to 30 20 15. The other thing to consider is insulation grade, routing method (conduit cable free air) and length (tap rule) Sent from my...

    MEP004A DC Circuit Interrupt trip issue

    Ok I had the same problem with my 004. There is one of 2 possible problems here. 1 something is drawing too much current 2 breaker is bad The following process needs to be done with care and a basic understanding of electrical testing processes. You will need a multimeter that does DC...

    Are you talking about the DC circuit breaker located to the far right of the control panel?

    Messy oil change

    disclaimer: I do not have an 803. That being said in other possible messy oil filter change areas once i crack the filter loose i use a ziplock bag over the filter as a catch.

    MEP-003 AUX Fuel Solenoid

    I cant speak for what their actual reasoning is, but I can imagine it is to A: antisiphon or B: hold prime. It might be worth trying, just make sure the circuit is capabable of handling the load.

    Battery disconnect switch .

    I made a bracket, Had a scrap piece of 7/8" unistrut that was just the right size, one hole later and a quick visit to mr welder and it was all done.

    Whole House Install w/ ATS and Remote Start

    Protip for high flex conductors. tighten terminals then flex the wire back and forth a few times, tighten again.

    MEP002A won't crank and no panel lights

    Glad you were able to get it resolved, little dielectric grease on the terminals goes a long way Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk
