    Auto Hertz Mechanism for 803A Genset

    Ray I set it at 61 when its a 25 %. Yesterday was first time it has run after some PM work on it. Ran from 25% to 110% load. When it was at 110% it dropped to 58 - 58.5. I adjusted it back to 60. Let it run at that to remove residue in muffler. The load got that high with a 2000 watt aux...

    Auto Hertz Mechanism for 803A Genset

    Keep hertz at 60 regardless of load. Read differing opinions but most say its bad for to be above or below 60 more than 2 hertz. When my ac's go on and off and particularly when both are on it can drop 2-3. Set in question is performing to spec I believe as far as handling average loads. It...

    Low hour M803A Fuel leak, Cover suggestion

    "If you remove the rear cover hiding the tank" Are you referring to the panel on the outside of the gen set or on the interior panel adjacent to the engine, ie in the engine compartment? Thanks Edit... Found a picture in another thread and it appears the exterior panel is what I need to...

    Low hour M803A Fuel leak, Cover suggestion

    I finally gettting round to replace return fuel line. Removed top exterior engine cover no real problem there. Still confused about how to get to return line going into tank. I hope that its accessible by removing exterior cover on front/outside of tank below the fuel cap. That looks pretty...

    Yet another engine oil and diesel fuel thread
