The one item which causes the most issue with idle speed is the metering valve. This must react positively with the tiny spring forces yet also negatively with the closing action of the governor centrifugal forces. Then the shut off solenoid must positively counter act all others.
The fit of...
The adjustment of the throttle actuator is quite sensitive. Just a few degrees of adjustment on the actuator side makes a world of difference so if you have a frequency droop of more than 5 Hz from no load to just a few kW, bump this up. The droop adjustment won't compensate enough. Remember...
There are a few threads on how the governor functions..the TM (these are US Army only, so it is a TM) has not been released due to the classified nature of the EOD application.
Start with the switches on the PTO, TC and shift mechanism. Check fuse resistance as mine was horrible. 12 volt...
The replacement unit will fit. The outlet fittings should be the same, the only real difference is injected quantity is slightly less, turning it up a bit less than a 1/4 turn will correct this. It should also slightly advance timing as it increases stroke which places start of injection...
Align the corresponding indicator lines. Timing in these pumps is based on a slew of different factors and adjustments. Timing advances with increasing injection quantity, transfer port pressure and throttle opening.
If the engine is noisy at warm idle, you can retard if needed.
Chains attached to independent points from the tow bar are always a good idea.
7018 are good rods if they are fresh. They don't stay that way, especially from your local hardware store. The key is ductility, 70 S6 GMAW with 75/25 Ar/CO2 can have issues.
When it comes to bolting in shear loading, higher tensile strength can be less effective. Yes, higher grade bolts achieve higher clamping force with a loss in ductility.
Metric class 8.8 is the proper choice here.
You can't adjust timing, it takes special tools. You could turn the fuel up, with the pump removed, there is a Pentagon shaped cover on the left side, two screws hold it. Remove this cover and turn the hub until the screw access hole is seen. Insert a 3/32" hex head driver..make sure it fits...
Split plane intake manifold is for normally aspirated tuning to enhance flow above 3400 RPM. It won't restrict flow with a turbo. What restricts flow in any system are abrupt changes in flow area, even small to large area changes. Air has mass so when the area of flow becomes larger, the air...
Fuel should flow through the injection pump's bleed orifice to the case, there is a vibrating wire through this orifice to regulate the flow. Remove the pink wire to prevent flow through the delivery system.
Check the metering valve under the injection pump cover. With cover off, simulate the action of the engine kill solenoid, looking at the metering valve. It should rotate slightly when you release.
Pulling the wheel isn't that difficult with the proper puller and circlip tool. Invest wisely and it is a snap.
I would say it is the switch. Test the motor with a jumper wire before swapping. The washer function is through a solenoid shifting a cam, don't energize this circuit during the test.
Don't know if Amazon Germany has this brand/model available, not at work so I cannot check. DB Electrical is the brand, model 400-12416 is the correct part. The Amazon Standard Item Number (ASIN) is B00EIII368 in the US marketplace so go on brand and model, ASINs vary by marketplace.
Yes, it is a 12 lead generator, the lead outs are labeled and th he wiring diagram is online. I have been wanting to make a reconnection board to provide a low zigzag 120/240 split and the stock low wye.
I had been looking at a MEP 003A reconnection switch but the complexity was too much for...
I am perfectly happy with 255 85 16s on reproduction 8 inch wide rims on my M-1031. Cooper Discover S/T Maxx, good highway manners plus they look far better. Might be subjective but they feel more stable in cross winds.
With my air compressor relocation, I comfortably sleep in the back...
Keep the SECM box, generator and air compressor. Useful and built like a brick outhouse.
I moved the air compressor over the generator using steel rails bolted to the racking. More bed space.
During our February winter storm, the generator provided power for me and two neighbors..12 kW is...
Energized to run. That 3 amperes or so at around 12.5 volts generates a bit of heat which normally is dumped to the fuel leaving the injection pump case.
Keep it energized without the engine running for a good length of time and this can happen. Like flat towing with key in and engine off to...
Does the inside look like that? If not, go on. You still have the regulator after the pump. A regulator is also a check valve which shuts off flow when inlet pressure is less than outlet.
I'm not trying to be an optimist here..
