no, the 804 is a 10 wire gen head, you should read earlier in this thread where it's emphatically stated this model can NOT be reconfigured to single phase.
I think the OP is just using it in 120/208 mode and drawing 2 legs of 120V off of it. (L1-N, L3-N)
To my understanding, if you set it to 240/416 and go L1 to L3 you'll have 416V, which is way higher than the 120V interters he is using will take.
For 240 single phase you'd be best off wiring it...
So unrelated to the 804, but here is some Kohler info
for the kohler yes, it likely either needs an ignition coil, or there is a chance the wire itself is shorting out. If you can run it when it's dark outside and look back there the best you can, sometimes you can actually see the spark...
that is what is being said.
The bolt pattern is 8 on 6.5. Wheels 16" diameter or larger needed.
Offset isn't that important.
Older Ford trucks, GM trucks, and many others used this bolt pattern for a long time. Most newer trucks run metric sizes, but 8 on 6.5 is still a common size to find.
the important things are the outside dimensions and hole size/distance, as well as whatever it takes to actually activate the master cylinder.
As the actuator on the inside is the same part number, the holes should match. The back of each (or however you would refer to the end that installs...
okay, found one on another site
Once again though, I am not 100% certain that this is the actual model/correct part.

I can't tell you for 100% certain, but several of the internal components are the same part numbers as the Titan Model 6 including the master cylinder and surge damper.

EDIT: looking through...
Only caveat about pulling fuel from an auxiliary tank, you want to try to keep the aux tank fuel level below the level of the generator fill cap. From what I've read if the aux fuel level is too high it can gravity feet/siphon into the day tank on the generator and overflow the day tank.
I...
I looked up the HDT load bank. Looks like it is 3 phase only (unless there is a different one on epay I'm not seeing)
add a couple hundred more to that for the cable and plug.
even with just the 30kw unit you can always add additional load using heaters or other resistive load devices. You won't know the exact output, but the gauges on the control panel of the gen should be close enough for what you are doing.
I would say NOT to change it to the 240/416, because it would be double the voltage you are set for (the 240 is from line to neutral in this setting)
in the 120/208 setting you will still see 120V from line to neutral, the same as the Kohler. If both of your inverter/chargers are set to 120V...
Most of us have made our own because commercial/surplus load banks are typically several thousand dollars. Mostly it's a supply/demand thing, there isn't a huge demand, so there isn't much supply for them.
Unless you have a fleet of generators of all different sizes and output types (120...
Eastern Surplus appears to have some in stock? At least, it lets me add them to cart

Looking at specs for the truck and generator, a ram 2500 4X4 with 6.4 Hemi and 4.10 gears has the following rating
3610 lbs for regular cab long bed
3300 lbs for crew cab short box
3140 lbs for crew cab long box
2910 lbs for mega cab short box
so looks like the MEP-005a weighs about 2850 lbs...
I would say it's not that uncommon for them to fail.
From what I've seen, it's the same basic MPU as the Generac liquid cooled standby generators (I'm a Generac Tech) and replacing the MPU is one of the more common reasons I have to work on them.
to answer the question of "how dicey..."
if the pavement is dry the entire way you'd probably be okay if you have a lot of trailer towing experience, and added some extra weight in the bed of the truck to help keep the trailer from pushing you around.
If it's wet pavement and you have to make...
yes, I agree it needs changing.
But until it IS changed, that's how you have to do things unless you want government type people poking into the rest of your business as well, so better to pay it and complain than not pay it and get caught.
"bare bones in good condition"
6.2 or 6.5 engine? 6.5 with turbo?
3 speed or 4 speed?
titles for on road use or ORV only?
m998, m998A1 m998A2, ECV, REV?
You're basically asking what price for a bare bones Ford pickup. We could be talking anything back to the model T or F100, F150, F250...
Double check with a multimeter at the batteries what the actual output is. Then check again at the generator just to make sure. I'd do it when first started, then again after it's dropped down.
This is just to make sure it's actually a charging issue, and not a wiring issue.
It could be the...
When properly functioning it's something over several hundred lbs of force required on the pintle ring before the brakes should begin to engage. The only time they should need locked out when reversing is if backing uphill or in loose soil/sand.
