as soon as you place the set in run the low oil light will light (no pressure) when it starts push the test/reset switch to reset and release. that should shut that light off.
The gauge and oil pressure switch are separate. Personally I dont trust the gauges that much.
as soon as the engine is running, turn on the battle short (s7) if it keeps running then it narrows the problem down to a handful of things. make sure you have actual oil pressure before doing...
What transducer did you replace? did it work before you replaced it? When it runs for 10 seconds is that after you release the start switch?
If memory serves there are only 4 things that will stop the engine automatically, overspeed, high water temp, low oil pressure, and overvolt.
Since I installed the 004 we havent had a power outage longer than an hour. Utility has replaced alot of repairs in my area (apparently calling them every hour does get results). We call it my hurricane repellent.

Small filter is a water separator. That can be cleaned. 2 big cans are the lead and lag fuel filter. The can in the block is the speed switch. It needs to be connected to run, it disables the starter above starting rpm, enables the field flash, and acts as an overspeed shutdown.
Having gas is...
I have never removed the tank, i believe it can be removed without too much disassembly though. The TMs should specify.
Fuel consumption depends on load. A quick and rough estimate is 1gallon an hour. Since i installed my 004, we haven't had a significant outage so i dont have the data to...
51004
There are a few things that can prevent it from making power. Get the engine going first and then we can troubleshoot the electricals.

Filters: wix oil 51004
Fuel wix 33512 10 micron 33540 6 micron. I usually use a 10 for the first filter and 6 for the 2nd.
I use my 004 as a whole house stand by and did the single phase conversion. Highest ive run is 72 amps.
Now for your set. Has it ever worked for you? What is it doing/...
It looks like a cap from a metal halide ballast. what is it wired to? if the resistor is paralleled to the cap the resistor is a bleed off it slowly drains the cap when there is no power applied
Ah so the your machine is already modified?
Circled M is a meter Volts is directly reading the output voltage
amps is reading the induced field for amperage through CT1 and CT2
CT 1&2 are transformers, they are taking the high current and making it...
Should already be setup for single phase 120/240. Is your avr bad? And what part of the drawing do you need explained?

Congrats on venturing into the mysterious world of injection pumps.
Lifting can be a bit wonkey, my 003 came off the transport trailer partially by sliding, tilting and the assistance of an engine hoist. bout a month later it ended up on a new trailer, engine hoist and hand winch...
Other thing to remember, the breaker rating it the trip point. They are ment to be loaded to 80% maximum umder normal circumstances

smoke can be bad timing, it can also be wetstacked. Check the TM for the timing procedure (theres marks on the flywheel and IP) if its timed right you might just need to burn the crap out of it.
10 awg 12 awg and 14 awg actually are rated higher than 30 20 and 15 respectively. In the ampacacity tables of the nec theres a foot note that restricts them to 30 20 15. The other thing to consider is insulation grade, routing method (conduit cable free air) and length (tap rule)

Ok I had the same problem with my 004. There is one of 2 possible problems here.
1 something is drawing too much current
2 breaker is bad
The following process needs to be done with care and a basic understanding of electrical testing processes.
You will need a multimeter that does DC...
