These generators were designed to give "a small AC voltage" if the regulator is not working or disconnected. I've found the "small signal" to be around 20 -22 volts AC. This is both good news and bad news..... good news, the generator will generate AC voltage, so likely your rotor and stator...

If the engine cuts out at a 7Kw load, but performs well up 'till then, I'd take a very hard look at the fuel lift pump. When a Facet pump works well everything is hunky dory. BUT there are so few Facet pumps that actually work well I'd suspect the pump first. The Facet pump was a high...

Hmmm. The unit that only generates 7Kw... What are the symptoms when you load it further... does the engine quit running, or does something trip up. And just as a thought... what kind of fuel pump does it have.... Facet cube or Airtex?

on each side of the generator there should be a ~1/4 inch weep hole just in front of the radiator about 4-5 inches up from the bottom of the unit. Those are there so that if it rains and water drips into the "grille" (coolant air system for radiator) it will drain the water out through a...

OH, by the way, when you figure it out please post your solution.

If I understand you correctly you suspect the actual liquid level sensor?? If so, it is highly unlikely that several LLS are bad. So, if you suspect the LLS, I'd try to make sure that the float isn't binding somehow. Also. for the 2a (which I think is what you have) it is a definite "Z...

The liquid level sensor (sort of a "Z" shaped piece with TWO rubber floats on it located near the front of the tank with four tiny wires coming out of it.) will shut the unit down when there is no fuel. That half of its job seems to be working. The liquid level sensor also has a second float...

The fitting ends.... Are the two ends of the pump equal length or is one longer than the other? The picture makes it appear like they are two different lengths, but pictures can be deceiving.. Are there adapters to adapt a smaller size fitting on the pump to a larger size fitting on the input...

Specs on primary fuel pump facet 40193 10 GPH @ 30 psi. High pressure, low volume Aux pump facet 40194 23 gph @ 5 - 6.5 psi . low pressure, high volume My prediction on the 1074 specs is 35 gph @ 5.5 - 9 psi, but I doubt y'all will find that written anywhere.

Now, finding the elusive Airtex E1074 pump is another matter. Frankly I don't think that Airtex ever made an E1074 model fuel pump. Their web site does not show one, and no where can I find the specs on one. I called Airtex about an E1074 pump a while back and the techs there were very...

I have several NOS Facet pumps (40193) and about half are DOA. You can identify them from across the room... they're square-ish pumps and the Airtex replacements are like canisters. I believe that a poorly functioning Facet pump can pump fuel fine during low demand, but can have have...

Does your unit have a Facet 40193 fuel pump?

All's well that ends well. good luck z

Those injector pumps tend to seize up on low hour generators. I suspect that after a few hundred hours they wear just enough to keep from seizing.

The way I found to get the correct orientation is not to orient the sender, but the gasket. It is much easier to see the gasket and how that orients. Once you've nailed down the gasket orientation you can use a marker to mark the position of the gasket vis a vis the tank. Mark the tank in the...

A few fuses..... Y'all aint priced 'em yet... Home Depot won't have them. You'll have to go to an electrical supply house. Remember, you want the "slo-blo" fuse. The clerks at some of those supply houses think that a fuse is a fuse, is a fuse, but that aint so. Since you can make 110vac...

At least the unit will generate electricity if primed by the START switch. So you've narrowed the problem to the fuse or the regulator. Because the starter disconnect switch (S14) was partially removed from the unit when you got it it almost looks like someone had tried to trouble shoot...

you shouldn't have to hold on to the START for more than 5 seconds after the engine starts running. If nothing happens, then in future tests I still wouldn't hold that switch for more than 5 seconds after it starts running. I was "camping" on that switch once with a 10 kw generator that...

Just a quick update on the Hz meter.. If the Hz meter deflects that means you are generating an AC signal of about ~60 Hz. That doesn't necessarily mean that it is 110 Volts -- it could be 20 or so volts. The Hz meter doesn't "care" about voltage, just cycles. By the way, if you open the...

Whenever you start seeing smoke or smelling burning, stop doing whatever you are doing.... S1 is the START switch. The START switch does double duty. When in the START position, it runs the starter motor, BUT once the engine is at ~650 RPM the STARTER DISCONNECT kicks in and shuts off the...
