In the first post, it says the motor holds a little over a GALLON of oil, but the TM's say it holds 1.2 QUARTS. For those of you that have changed oil, which is it? Thanks

I wasn't able to get in touch with GAC today. I will try again tomorrow and let you know.Symptoms sound like new controller is bad. I was hoping yours new one would work flawlessly as I was about to order one myself as the one that was out of adjustment on speed pot failed. No output to electronic governor. J&H outputs range is in the 4-11vdc area. I have a bad controller that is outputting the same as your new one. Engine runs at full speed. What did GAC say about it?
Hi Delbert, I called GAC. I was transferred to Dave and he says it sounds like it is defective. He had me send them an email requesting an RMA authorization [return authorization]. I don't think there will be a problem it looks like the warranty is for 2 years. Very nice people!Symptoms sound like new controller is bad.

Just an update. I received a replacement speed controller from GAC with a note that said they couldn't find anything wrong with the original but as a courtesy they were sending a replacement. I installed it and 2 minutes later it was set to specs and running like a champ. It was so nice to have a cotroller that responded just like the TM said it should when I adjusted it!!! My take on this experience is that the people at GAC are very nice and more than willing to accomodate. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one. I spent hours trying to adjust the speed, gain, stability, boost and magnet with the old controller. With the new controller I just followed the set up and adjustment instructions that Guyfang posted and I was done.Symptoms sound like new controller is bad.

First thing I think of when someone has issue with this K8 relay. is the relay installed in K15 starter lockout a 120vac coil? Nearly every unit has a K14 24vdc and K15 120vac relays in swapped location Here are pics of A8 burnt internals.Hey, I talked with someone in a PM, who has a problem with his 831. He thinks K8 is not working. Has anyone tried to take a A8 apart and look at the darn thing?
