Also today it seemed the head was getting pretty hot as it would smoke a little after shutting off. Didn’t do that before or when running correctly.Louvers opened 1/4 -1/2” no load.

Also I do have the Ambac 50 pump. I was also wondering if those cracking glow plugs were causing some of the issue. Is there a cross reference for the glow plugs. I had found the Champion 182’s but it will be a while before they arrive. I have off work tomorrow and would like to get back to...

Chain breaker, yes you were heading me I. The right direction all along. I thought about all day yesterday and never new there was a missing cable. As far as hunting it will start and sometimes I have full throttle and sometimes it will not go above 55hz. But whatever it decides to run at it...

P.S. I reached out to storeman but no response yet. Not sure if he is still around based off of the history of his post or He might just be busy.

Chainbreaker thanks for the photos. Mine looked very similar!! PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!! Turned out to be the ground from the lug someone had disconnected at some point and it got tucked under the machine out of sight and out of mind. I have full 24v all the time now. I was able to get her up and...

Actually I believe the cable I found goes to the neg side of the solenoid with the negative bat cable. It fits like a glove there.

I just found a large wire that was tucked up under the frame of the machine near the bottom of the engine. It runs from the ground lug at the front almost all the way to the engine. It has a big lug. I’m assuming it suppose to connect to the neg side of the battery. If I touch it to the neg side...

Guys with all of the help I believe I’m getting close. Can anyone tell me where the battery neg. Lead goes from the starter. I believe I have the style I starter. The diagram shows two grounds but I only have one from the neg terminal at bay. To the neg post on starter. If I apply a ground from...

Also when I test the Cr-1 and Cr-3 if one or the other is bad does anyone know if there any available replacements for these items??

Ok thank you. That gives me somewhere to start again. I will check these out most likely Sunday as it’s going to rain all day tomorrow. I will post my findings.

Although in fairness reading schematics I am schematically challenged.

Will do thanks. I just checked because curiosity got the best of me. When I have power I’m getting 25.40 volts to the switch terminal 14 on master switch. When I bump the starter and loss the power I only read 5.14 volts to the switch. Is there a good better or best diagram. The one I’m using...

Im not outside at the unit right now but if I remember correctly today when I was testing I had power up to the number 13 terminal ( the one for the fuel pump) on the switch but then I would lose it when I bumped the starter. So I believe when I have the 24v power the switch operates like it should.

Is there a way to test it? I just goggled a new switch earlier and didn’t come up with a replacement and don’t know anyone that has one of these machines.

Yes the panel lights will work all the time. The only thing I lose is glow plugs and fuel pumps. The solenoid on the aux pump also always works.

So basically to me it seems everything is working as it should with the exception of losing power to the fuel pumps and glow plugs intermittently. I was thinking there may be another relay/capacitor in the electrical box that sometimes works and sometimes don’t if I bump the starter. Any other...

Just confirmed the ground strap at the box is good.

Also it is not popping the dc breaker.
