Ah, slight clarification…
The front diff needed to be slightly adjusted where the frame brackets attach. Zero clearance for the LF caliper otherwise. Procedure is in the TM

Set ran great for several years. I purchased in WA from GP. Only major work was replacing well nuts, filters and charging the batteries.
Fast forward I had a fuel issue a few years ago during the winter that cleared up after replacing the water separator.
This summer had a few hard starts...

I doubt the rail/governor is at fault as the assembly moves freely at the throttle and solenoid arms.

Fuel filter and oil PMCS completed.
Waiting on water separator part.
Generator is acting like it has no gel fuel delivery.
Fuel shut off solenoid is pulsing position off of stop on cranking. Tried running the fuel rail by hand during cranking-no difference.
Next up is checking low pressure...

MIP is functional and starter is no longer dropping out. Why? Not sure. All I did was look at FU1, and circuit breakers for MIP and DC.
Going through PMCS now. Replacing fuel filters and oil service. Air filter is fresh/clean.
I'm getting into seasonal maintenance a tad late.
MEP-802A is acting up a tad. The starter will kick in briefly and then stop when the switch is engaged. Dead crank has no problem engaging the starter continuously. I presume this is a bad solenoid or start relay somewhere. Where do I start...
Improved X door hinge pin. Credit to Tom Rogers on this one. The pins usually bend/break at the press relief. Grade 8 5/16”x5” bolts and metal locking nuts.
Assembled with locknut and thick washer.
