It was my first time as well doing a Saginaw rebuild and it is actually easy and I really enjoyed it. The one thing to watch out for is the white teflon seal on the piston as it may be easily damaged when forcing the piston int the housing... follow the recommendations as shown in the pictures...

Hi 1Love, Been installed since quite a while now. Works perfect and smooth... just like a Saginaw PS does!! I love the US PS... they operate so very easy... not like German or others, which still have quite some resistence built in... just a matter of preference I guess. Jake

Oh my... I'm behind the curve... been away too much, from one thing to the next and now Ukraine war needs all the support they can get, so we're setting up as close as possible... Anyway, I found all rebuild kits at RockAuto. I don't have enough experience to say anything about the quatlity of...

That's a very valid question! This is a brand new unused generator. But I'll have to ow you an answer for now, it's too early to reply yet... no damage is being done, other than discovering, learning, understanding and a little experiment. And if the outcome is unsatisfactory, the entire system...

Hi again, Got the generator open and the rotor separated. What an interesting design and assembly. The rotor halves actually attache with 6 small screws onto the axle.

Hi again, Got the generator open and the rotor separated. What an interesting design and assembly. The rotor halves actually attach with 6 small screws onto the axle. Just need to press the pulley sice cover off of the axle and then I am ready... Pictures to follow. Thanks for all the help...

Hey Juanprado, Thank you for that kind remark and concern!! Jake

Hi Juanprado, Thank you very much!! All and any information regarding this generator is usefull, so well received!! Thanks, Jake

Hi Mogman, Thank you for your clear reply, I think I understand now how it works. This particular Niehoff generator has 2 stator windings and both output + and both - are bridged togeter on the outside of the housing. This gen delivers 28V 400A. From what I can see inside, there are 2 stator...

Hello, Looking for a complete disassembly and assembly instruction for NIEHOFF Generator of type 76761 ? I am having difficulty removing the bearing cover on the pulley side as it seems to jam on the bearing or something? Do I need to use a bearing puller to get this cover off? Any helpfull...

Just came across this article in "Autobild", a well reputed German auto magazine: https://www.autobild.de/artikel/zweitaktoel-diesel-18800907.html I have included the unedited google translation hereby. Not saying this is science but worth a read for those interested. BLUF: Older diesels can...

Hi, ... a bit late... but is this what you are looking for: https://www.upsbatterycenter.com/lcb-sp100-12-12v-100ah-battery Jake

Hi David, Know exactly what you mean with your to do list... I'm in the same spot! I have a box full of these injectors with nozzles, somewhere between 20 and 40 I think. On some packaging it says "Continental Motors Corp" and these are dated 1962, so from some older US Military vehicles...

Hi all, I am trying to identify and get the specifications and use of a BENDIX Air/Fuel injector with DELAVAN Nozzle: Bendix Injector NSN 2910-00-854-4428 ( 10-207910-5, 115GC16A, 10899109 ) I understand this is used on military trucks as an intake preheater device for cold weather starting...

Hi Skinny, Not a problem, I have an open mindset and will listen to all suggestions. Thanks for your thoughts!! Cheers, Jake

Thanks Skinny, I'll keep your considerations in mind as we go forward. Best, Jake

Objective is merely to share what I have learned in practice until now, not to share a theory or just a paper concept! A little bit of thinking out of the box is the foundation of innovation, discovery, invention. Even when it sometimes seems like doing what may seem unworkable or wrong. I am...

Good morning Patracy, The ideas I have shared here are not just on paper design but the result of research and trial and many errors and fails. And yes, there will be the need for some needle honing and tuning to remain operable for most nozzles and needles, but it varies with make, engine...

Morning Barrman, Definitely timing will have to be retarded, as stated in my base document, some but not a lot however. The burning speed of diesel or vaporized diesel remains primarily the same: 3m/sec, but the burning - or fuel explosion if you want - will be shorter and heftier, as all the...

Very correct Mullaney!!! And just because the intake air should be as cool as possible, I have come up with this ZVS Induction PCB and Coil system to heat up only the fuel, and then release it in the air intake or combustion chamber!! Cheers, Jake
