I'll have to ask my wife.

The 802s been running since my posting yesterday afternoon. Tentative power reestablishment is 6 o clock tonight. The 802s dutifully roasting a standing rib roast at the moment... I mean... getting a high quality load bank test. Merry Xmas to all.

What he was told was they couldn't source turbos... supposedly they have gotten some in so his machine is back in production. How can Cummins/Onan not source turbos???

At times Ive had 12 or more machines on hand. I have nothing extra here right now thats running.... what a world.

You have antigel in your fuel? Ice in the fuel can cause no pumping. Let the machine pump run for a few minutes then try again. If you still dont get it to go, undo the fuel line at the outbound side and see if you are getting fuel pumped. Move your way through the system to the injectors.

I was at the grocery store earlier when my wife called and said we lost power. Seems to be isolated to just us, but surely wont stay that way with these winds. My fathers Generac shit the bed earlier in the year and hes currently without a genset waiting for Onan to deliver his new 1800RPM...

Do you have power at the convenience outlet?

The phase selection switch is behind the little door on the 'front' of the machine (gauge side) left side, just above the convenience outlet. Never turn that switch while the machine is running or you may not only be looking for a new pair of underwear, but also where to refill the smoke chamber.

Set the machine to 61-61.5 and put your desired load on the machine. Adjust it thereafter to as close to 60 as you want. If you saw how much the hertz can actually fluctuate from grid tied power based on your location, you wouldn't be to worried at all.

All sorts of adapters are commercially available: https://www.hydraulichoses.com/steel-jic-an-fittings-s/148.htm

-5AN is a good cross to 5/16JIC... very common cross. You can probably find an adapter to jump right at the spout to the size you want for your fuel line. And if you need a pickup assembly I have a number of them listed in the classifieds here.

Where is your sense of adventure??

The 803s on the whole are better machines from an ownership standpoint. The 4 cylinder is a smoother runner than the twin, and its slightly quieter to me. There is more room in the engine bay to perform maintenance, and its generally just easier to access everything. That said... I have an 802...

Clearances to consider, no matter the machine.

Most replacement air filters come with a new rubber backed washer that does the same thing.

Yeah the replacement doesn't need to be phenolic like the OEM, just get a wingnut (or a regular nut and a washer) and call it a day.

From the manufacturer, more technical data if desired.

Just take it slow. Remove the tank hold down and pad, and other obvious obstructions/hoses. You might need to lift and scoot it back, before tipping (to allow a free hand to help the fan blade out of/around the two piece radiator shrouding.
