Thanks zout, I have never ventured out of the generator forum,,,kinda forgot the rest existed. I should have looked.

Where do you guys find od green and tan paint? I looked in wally world, tractor supply, lowes, and a bunch of other stores around here,,,but no luck. I am semi colorblind, which does not help, but it makes my wife laugh at my cloths sometimes,,,,,

Thank you,,,sigh,,,another tm to get.

I did not know there was more then 1. The one i need to know about is the little glass fuse that allows battery to charge

My book references replacing the fuse in different places, but never tells what amp the fuse is. Anybody know?

I disconnect my battery cable when the 003 is just sitting around. I notice tiny sparks when connecting or disconnecting. The switch is set to "off". Is this normal? Would batteries go dead if i leave them hooked up? What would be pulling juice?

The thread is 7/16-20

Gettin colder. I bought glow plugs and started to take old ones out. It sucks so far. Should i get the generator hot first before taking them out? Should i use never seize when i put new pnes in? know what thread they are? I need to run a tap in the hole of the one i got out.

So it doesnt hurt the gen end to get wet?

I have a dirty one. How do you clean them? Can i put a power washer to it?

I installed jims digital gage. It is working great so it was the transducer i think. My kill a watts is about .5 different then the gage. I suppose i will put the original gage on my 002a to verify it is still good when i get time,,,, thanks for the help guys. i am 1 hour into my first dry...

I was gonna just use a bolt. Is that acceptable, or is there some kind of " lug" i should use? chainbreaker, did you run a wire between the two lugs? I thought I read someone did that, but can't find the thread again to see why.

Great,,yes, i just wanted to hook the green wire shorter instead of going to the skid. I want to wire a permanant recepticle to it so i can just plug it in, using an RV extension cord, to my transfer switch. It would help hide all wires if the ground was contained in the load box. I unbonded...

Is it ok to put a ground lug up in the box with L1, L2, L0 ? It sure would be easier to hook up a gen cord.

I have been checking my system with this thread. I am unbonding my mep. I have noticed that every single box in my system has a green bonding screw in it. After the meter there are 3 different breaker/disconnects going to 2 barns and house. All of them have the bonding screw in them. Take them out?

The starter came in. It has less wires for hookup then my type 1. Anybody know wiring to change over?

Ok, i will set at 61.5 no load and see what happens. I am preparing to make trial runs with an 002 and an 003 to see which i need to handle my house. I hope the 002 does it since it will use less fuel. My 50 amp extension cord should be here next week,,,then the test is on!

Ok, i know we are supposed to run 60 hz,,,but what is the tolerance? How picky am i supposed to be while using it? 58-62? 59-61? 59.5-60.5? Now on the voltage, i hear circuits are 110, 115, and 120 volts. Over the years it seems to change and i still hear different numbers from people. Where...

Yes, it still pegs to 65

I got the muffler welded up, solenoid installed, so got to start it and play some more. I couldnt plug the kill a watt directly into the 120 outlets because the lids get in the way. I put a 50 ft extension cord in it and pluged the kill a watt into it. Will the cord throw the hz reading off...
