you could always just leave one door open or just prop it almost closed to allow air flow. those big doors would block a lot of noise. these sets are designed to run in hot humid environments and hot desert conditions also so i don't think you will have much trouble if you have some air flow.

i broke my wife when she complained about the noise by turning off the gen and getting out the flashlights and blankets,no water to flush or drink either. i now have several generators and she doesn't complain a bit. i did recently purchase an 802A and that thing whispers.

Bates Corperation sorry it looks like they only do IH. but if i were you i would call them anyway and ask if they knew anyone who salvages old AC

OH that is great!!! woman don't like to rough it without electricity. my wife is same same

does your wife know you have two generators? Ha Ha my

you remember the golden rule? "One is none and two is one"

YUP! we have a pipeline terminal near me. some brands add their color and additive package if any at the site. the pipeline inserts a pig into the line and then loads product behind it and then insert another pig and the next product and so on and so on in one large never ending train. one...

in my neck of the woods there are sellers who specialize in blended recovered and damaged fuels. it is cheap and for a reason.

in my opinion under the above circumstances you don't need any additives. if you like more lubricity with light cleaning action then MMO is your ticket. i have been using MMO for decades with no adverse affects.

i need a wire harness?? the one that has all of the connections from the cannon plug to the engine compartment. THANKS

i agree use a descant if possible. best practice is don't store more than you can use in six months and add nothing. have a dry empty clean tank that you can fill in quick order if you can see a crisis come your way.

i have used Sea Foam for a long time. it is good to use when the generator is running at the beginning of an outage but as a long term conditioner i say no. you need a good product that is made for just that and it's main purpose is stability and not anti gel. the best is to use the fuel before...

when you say"did that reduce the volume"if you mean the sound,then yes it helped quite a bit. but remember the 002A is noisy anyway,if you really concerned with noise then you should keep your eye out for an 802A. the 802A is unbelievably quiet compared to an 002A. i just angled the street L...

i built mine with three sides. top and two sides and i left the ends open for airflow. those air cooled Onan move allot of air.

That is a good idea. Thanks

very well said. these surplus generators are "like a box of chocolates" you never know what your gonna get.:smile:

i have been tinkering some with the 802A. the fire blackened some of the engine control wire bundle below the thermostat housing and near the shut off solenoid. everything is working ok but i was thinking about replacing that part of the harness or just replace the whole harness. anyone ever...

low pressure could also be caused by low volume. say the pickup screen is obstructed? i will bet that it isn't really a low pressure problem but a bad sender.
