Cool, hopefully the adjustment did it. Takes some times to work out the kinks on these things but once you do, it works very well.

I did this air dryer upgrade in one of my YouTube videos for those that may want to see it. Mine came with the proper plate for the FMTV though.

I had your issue & got two switches. Drove me nuts. Seems like you are almost there. What I found was the rotational adjustment needed to be better. The vibration would cause a false fault. Loosen the nut & rotate each way until the float hits. Find the middle. Then, push it down until it hits...

The videos I made on the adjustments are very long & boring but I had a ton of help on my thread to get mine going. It was really bogered up. Here is my thread; https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/mep-831a-fix-up-thread.190228/

Got it all fresh & new!

kloppk pointed it out before I could. I have made some videos just on adjusting everything you're pointing to because I had all the same issues. kloppk helped me through them as well. I will lastly add that I ended up needing to tighten the black thumb screw down ever so slightly off the...

I added some PRI-D. Plan is to just drain the tank when I do the fuel filter & check to see how clean it is. Fill with fresh fuel, treat with PRI-D & SeaFoam, then run a whole tank at 100% load. Change the oil as well during this & use SeaFoam in the crank case. After all that, it should clean...

How long did you let it crank? It takes a while to prime these if the injection lines & pump are empty. Take the fitting off at the injector. Turn the switch to on. Let the electric pump run for 1 minuet. Hold the decompression lever down & crank the starter for 30 seconds. Look for a good jet...

Yeah, it probably would. The video does make it sound louder than it really is though.

Howdy, Got myself one of the L.I.P.S. (Lightweight Independent Power System) generators a few days ago. Seemed complete so I went to look at it with a battery & some fuel. Started up & made power so I made the buy. The model on the tag is 30D36R. Did a bit more testing of it today...

Another video on the motor in the generator.

Odd question I know, but how do you know the hours on it? Mine doesn't have an hour meter.

Thanks for this. Just picked up one of these units & it needs filters bad!

Did you get it running? May just need to bleed the air out. These generators are very finicky but once they run well, they're great. Not sure if it will help any, but I did a bunch of videos on fixing mine up completely.

I actually got it for such a good deal I thought it was a scam, haha. I'm not seeing a PM.

I actually just got my myself one of those Ibis-Tek searchlights with the white HID & the IR lights as well. Controller & all. I haven't quite made up my mind how I want to mount it on the truck. Trying to get everything 100% on the truck before adding the "fun" stuff. :)

Well, I ordered 4 new tires & all the needed stuff to put them on. Should be fun! Fixed a few more minor things. Working on getting a crane mounted.

Another update complete. Project is coming along really well!
