Hey all,
I'm the new owner of an 803A, and having some issues that I can't seem to solve-- or I'm too cold and defeated to think straight.
1600 hours on the clock, has fuse mod.
It took me two days to get the engine running. New fluids, filters, ect. Pulled the injector pumps, cleaned, reinstalled. Bled everything multiple times. Finally gave in to just cranking it repeatedly (15sec intervals × a dozen times in a row) and each one got me closer until it finally caught and ran. Now starts very easily, even cold.
Right now I'm having issues with the voltage output. I'm getting *maybe* ~30VAC on each phase. Contactor is closing.
When holding the crank for a extra few seconds after starting, no voltage output on the gauge. The frequency gauge pins to max until I let go to Run. No 110VAC at convenience outlets.
VR 3A fuse is blowing. Quad winding seems to be fine, outputting AC and ohms out at 1.2.
What should I really be looking at here? The whole top is off, so I have reasonably easy access to everything at this point.
