The gauge you purchased is for the 004/005. It will work but will give you a inaccurate reading of percent rated current. That gauge is percent power, the one you want is the percent rated current so they are measuring 2 different things.

Transducers and gauges are different for the 004a. They are only sold as a match set becasue the transducer and guages are for 50hz/60hz. Ive tried a 003a hertz gauge with a 004a transducer but it doesnt work. I just replace the transducer and gauge from a 002, 003, 802, 803.

There is an ambac injector pump manual on the sight that shows the way to check timing. Basically you take the valve cover off number 1 cylinder. Then rotate the motor until you see the intake valve open then close, then look in the sight hole for the flywheel until you see PC; turn until your...

It sounds like the plunger guide may be cracked or striped and letting the guide get out 180 degrees. Ive had a couple that would run good, then on another startup run like crap and make the head super hot like yours. Temperatures would be almosy 400 degrees with no load. Sometimes the guide...

When going to start, you should get 24v to 11-13-15 and 25-27-28. 13 is attached to 14. I would recommend taking 1 wire off at a time to see if the short is in the switch or in one of the circuits

Yes look at the manual and it will tell you which numbers have power at differwnt positions. Just take a multimeter to check voltage

Really sounds like the master switch. Do the panel lights still work when nothing else will?

So I bought 3 units with the same issue. They actually drill a hole in the radiator coil for the auxiliary coolant heat in front of the condenser. This drains all the coolant out of the system. I actually used solder for that fix because its not pressured like an AC system. They drilled a hole...

Where did you get the unit? Ive bought a few out of PA and all had a hole in the ac compressor to release the freon. Pain to fix. I dont understand why they would have drilled a hole in the compressor to demil them.

Just have to keep your eyes open and dont focus on the government auctions. I just bought 2 803a's (high hours of 4,000hrs), a 002a with 50 hours and a 003a with ASK (150 hours) all for $1,700 from an online farm equipment auction. Bought 3 006a's for under $1,500 a piece with less than 500...

Iv had a couple of generators where a wire came out of a connector on the relays. Especially on the side near the gauges. Seems they put the wires to tight and the movement of putting the gauge panel up and down will make them come loose. Just need to pull on the wires gently to see if they pull...

If no one has messed with it by changing wires around it should be a simple fix. There are plenty of people on here that want to help including me. Let us know exactly what is going on and if you have a multimeter we can help

Unfortunately, parts are getting harder to find. CVT1 is very common to fail. I wish someone could either start making a new transformer or reconfigure the output box with simpler electronics. I would first take off line 17 on your voltage regulator and start, if the set generates power that...

This is why its shutting down because it thinks its out fuel. i would suggest fixing that before you destroy the whole thing.

1975 is the start year of the 00xa models I believe.

Ive seen this on 2 sets before. It usually only affects that wire coming from the ground lug. on thing I can think of is someone hooking a hot wire to ground to cause a short. Noth cases I just ran a new wire from the ground lug to the ground at the starter.

Dont get all hyped up on the 1040. You need to really look at one before you make the jump. They mounted the radiator directly behind the LCD brain and put an electric fan to cool the unit in the same area. I dont see these lasting as long as the 80x series. They also put the oil filter behind...

Made a mistake on how the k16 relay works. Power comes in on k16-4 from the k2 cranking relay. After I figured that out I tested continuity from tb4-6 where the k2 feeds and did not have continuity between the 2. So I took off J6 plug and found the issue. Look at number 36 plug. I cleaned it up...

Yes i did that too. I was thinking maybe the connector broke inside the housing but it had continuity between all the terminals and related connectors for the relay.

To start, I just got a 803a in that had the gen head and engine recently replaced. The top panels were removed when I picked it up. My problem is the fuel cutoff solenoid is not getting 24v to retract. It is getting 24v on the hold signal so I can turn s1 to prime/run and pull the solenoid back...
