Just between you, me, and the fence post, PFC Wiltfang also did in 1974.

Need to look at the schematics to see from where each meter gets its input. And of course, it could be that all the meters are bad. One way to test the Freq Transducer, is to take it out. get two wires and connect the output side of the transducer to the meter. Then take an old extension cord...

When you put the new /old VR in, make sure you hook up the wires correctly. There is a plate on the VR, that tells you were and what to hook up, and where the internal jumpers are hooked up on the TB, Terminal board. This is a Universal VR, so not all the gen sets it fits are hooked up the same.

The Freq Transducer will NOT, make all your gauges work. Just the Freq meter.

Tried printing out the schematic. Its not readable to me. Anyone do any better?

For your reading pleasure.

All military equipment is tested and is EMP proof. This includes tanks, trucks, comm equipment and such. This is simply not true. Not even close. All equipment is somewhat protected. But EMP proof? Not in this day and age. It is true, that ALL equipment is tested. Its done at WSMR, White Sands...

A house, a Car, (Truck in your case) and a woman, are never done. 😂

How about some pictures of the control panel, inside the control panel and the right side of the engine. Note: the control panel end of all gen sets, is the rear.

Correct. I would never shoot from memory on this test. Heck, lucky to remember my own name half the time. But as Kurt wrote, the -34 TM covers this well. Also, better pictures.

Its Air Force gear. So will be hard to find anything. I am surprised you have it. Its not supposed to be sold. It has a DEMIL code.

I would make em run first, before changing fluids. If the set wont run, why start putting in new fluids before you know the engine is good? The picture shows a muffles shield missing. When its running, that sucker is hot! So keep an eye on it. Also, some more picture. Second the vote on Call me...

Chucky looks better since his Incident!

That looks very much like the main gen winding's. Have you downloaded the TM's? Are you able to use a multi meter? Better pictures would shed more light on the damage.

Might want to look at these books. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/manuals-for-the-mep-831a.155865/

Distinct possibility.

On the picture I see no AC voltage on the meter. Start the set. Check at the 120 volt outlet for 120 volts. What do you get for AC volts?

Could be. Could be also exciter coil residue.

Are you still looking for parts?

Well, actually we call it the rear. So take the end cover off, and then the screen on the main gen. Look inside. Take pictures. Might only be the exciter coils.
