Yes, multiple DC sources are fine. I was envisioning something different, thought he was using the gen to power the house as well. I was thinking AC in the panel from the inverters not playing well with AC from the generator.

You can do it without the filter. You're just using the canister and fuel pump as a way to push the cleaner into the IP. When done cleaning, replace the filter and dump out any extra cleaner in the canister. Then run the pumps a while longer before starting to get the cleaner pushed through the...

Regarding the seal under the delivery valve assy. it is pretty common to find it either deteriorated or missing, it's just a paper thin piece of plastic that helps hold the assembly in place during assembly. It will cost you $30+ to get a new one, but assembling vertically on a bench you don't...

How are the rest of the lines on the machine? If you want to replace them, I've found the www.DiscountHydraulichose.com is a great place to mail order custom made hoses at really reasonable prices. You select the hose type and fittings you want, select the length and they will be on your door...

For the fuel hose you can either have a cheap hydraulic hose made up using the same 5/16" JIC / -5AN fittings or just use a dremel took and cut-off wheel to slit the outer crimp cover off the existing hose and pull the barbed fittings out and put them into a new piece of 5/16" transmission...

Mudwisr, I have 2 options for you. I have the original water separator disc assembly, I also machine my own aluminum filter adapters for the 002 that allow you to convert it to a readily available spin-on filter / water separator combo. There is a link to more info in my signature. I believe you...

One of the best things I have used it the "cheap" 2' x 4' Drop ceiling tiles, the ones that are dense yellow fiberglass with a thin bumpy textured white layer on 1 side. Just peel off the white layer and use the fiberglass board. They are available at home depot and Lowes, but sometimes they...

On an 002 the fuel water separator is not a replacement part, it's just a stack of aluminum discs inside the canister, no filter etc. Are you missing the entire assembly, or were you expecting to have an element in the canister that needs to be replaced?

Your stiff IP linkage means the IP is gummed up internally. Luckily it sounds like it is just gummy and you did not break the plunger guide by starting it up like that. Seafoam is a good idea, but could take some time. I personally would remove the fuel inlet line and pour Berryman's B-12 or...

I wouldn't think 30V would cause a problem for the fuel solenoid. The charging system is going to operate at 26-28V normally so I doubt the solenoid would be that sensitive to an extra 2V. It is an indication that your DC VR is going bad, but probably didn't kill the fuel solenoid.

Is the lockout needed to disconnect the solar from the batteries? Assumingly you can only have one or the other active at a time, unless you are feeding into some kind of phase synchronizing inverter to allow generator and solar simultaneously?

Actually the way it works is the governor solenoid is only there to KILL the IP, not to turn it on. Without the solenoid in place and with the engine off the fuel flow will be wide open. When the engine starts the governor will bring the fuel flow down in accordance with where the throttle lever...

NOS oil gages were available on ebay not long ago. It is possible that yours will work once you start it. Just because it isn't currently at zero doesn't mean it's totally frozen.

Yes, just push down on the linkage at the IP. That's all the solenoid does..... Just keep in mind that the solenoid also shuts the machine down in the event you loose oil pressure or overheat, so without the solenoid those 2 safeties are being bypassed, so keep an eye on it!

"With the HVAC running and the normal amount of lights turned on (it was about 8:30pm when he finished) and all the other things that normally run, the load was about 25%. Turning on the only two-phase load, the oven, took it to about 75%. Without the oven and just lights, clothes dryer (gas...

I'd rather have yours than the on I found.... yours fits better in a toolbox too...

The electrical box you have there is ( WAS... looks like to disassembled it ) a generator synchronizer, meant to switch the load from 1 generator to another while under power. Might be worth something to someone in the generator community? I see a slight hint of rust staining on the I beams, but...

:ROFLMAO: Cause' everyone's got a Kelvin Bridge or 2 in their tool box....;)

Agree with the 2 most likely failures on your current 803. As for the haze, a good running machine really shouldn't have any noticeable smoke when its running and warmed up unless you are in the 75%+ load range. You'll get a little smoke at start up, but it should clear up within a minute or 2...

When you reassembled the pump I assume you got the flat of the throttle lever pin to engage into the slot in the plunger sleeve? Sometimes it can be difficult, but 99% of the time the throttle control unit won't seat all the way unless the pin is engaged or the plunger sleeve is completely out...
