FINALLY had some time to get out and work on the genny today. Its been a crazy few weeks as the company I work for is in the middle of a merger that all but wrapped up friday. Anyways, hooked the batteries back up and toyed around a bit. Now that the fuel cut solenoid linkage is not bound up...

Oddly... greenmountaingenerators has a page showing the same failure that they warrantied on one of their units. Found it the other day while doing some digging for info on my 003a. https://greenmountaingenerators.com/2016/05/26/gmg-fixes-blown-oil-pump-mep003a-benefits-warranty-program/ I...
