Well, I guess we shouldn't delete this one now because you're adding more info to this one instead of the other post, so.... For your no power issue, first thing you should do is look to the left of your voltage regulator and see if there is a fuse holder mounted right there. If so, this is the...

o_O luckily shipping is only $6.75 ! maybe what's left of them will all fit in a small flat rate box??

Guy, are you able to delete threads? I believe this is a duplicate. All the good stuff is in the other one....

On the fan belt a trick I have used 100x on other items is to work the belt between 1 fan blade and the shroud at a time until you get around all the blades. Find a convenient spot and work it through, reverse procedure to reinstall. You only need like a 5/16" gap somewhere to slip it through...

Hi Ken, I will send you a PM with the info. Thanks Ray.

You are super lucky! There is no need to REPLACE the other pistons, but while you're there you could pull the other 3 and just make sure the rings are not stuck at all and inspect things. Since you had water but no rust I would expect the rings to be free, but you are already 80% of they way...

You must have excess fuel you need to dispose of! :cool: I contemplated buying one at auction several years ago, just for the fun of it, but price went beyond what I was willing to pay for a bunch of fun listening to it wind up. I assume you've already been looking on the normal Gov't auction sites?

Pull the side cover, remove connecting rod cap and pull it out, lets see if the bore is damaged or not. I've got spare pistons and rods if needed.

I see what you're doing now. You're turning the fan pulley which is much smaller than the crank pulley, so 1 revolution of the fan is no where near 1 revolution of the crankshaft. Pull the injectors and see what you get and take it from there. On the head gaskets I have used quite a few of the...

Well, the exhaust flap missing is always a scary scenario, however you are able to rotate the motor some, so that is an excellent sign. Are you saying you ARE able to get multiple revolutions before it jams up? If so, rust in the cylinders is most likely NOT the issue as it would bind with...

Welcome to the forum! I've also had several M103-A3 generator trailers in a few different configurations and I know what you mean, the tires and brake drums and lug pattern are huge. Unfortunately I never found anything readily available that would bolt on. As for a spare, there have been...

another way is to simply put a DC light bulb ( 12 or 24V will work ) between the disconnected wires and alternator stud. If the bulb glows you have a battery draw caused by a bad alternator diode.

Absolutely. One way is to disconnect the charging output wires from the back of the alternator, these are the 2 wires on the larger stud with a + cast into the alternator housing. Usually on the bottom or bottom left depending on how your alternator is clocked. Check using your volt meter, you...

Count me in! Thanks Hawker!

I once had an 802 doing the same thing. In my case it was a faulty short circuit / overload relay. The TM tells you how to test the K4 Circuit interrupter, but if your light illuminates the relay has to be working because the light is powered by a switch inside K4 that closes when K4 pulls down...

In your control cube, as you mentioned, you will have AC voltage available at the volt gage, which will still be controlled by you AM/VM switch. You will no longer need the Frequency transducer, so you can disconnect it from the transformer. If your gages also need 120VAC, ( in addition to the...

Don't put fuel in that hole.... it's probably already full of water from the flap being open!

Coat the inside. not only will it patch your current hole, it will also encapsulate any other rust areas and create a complete interior liner that will prevent any further problems. As long as you prep the tank well and use the 2 part epoxy you will never have to touch it again.

Check the face of the gage, lower right side. It should be labeled with the Full Swing current, which I believe is 1amp AC for a full needle swing, so I'd imagine the CT would be milliamps.

I'd get the 20gl kit and mix up about 3/4 of it. You can save a bit for another project, or mix more if you think you need more. The 10gl. kit is probably just barely enough to cover it, but it all depends on the temperature when you coat it. If the stuff is a little cold it will flow less and...
