And I got that part number from a 'SIEMENS Product Expert' review comment found here: https://www.homedepot.com/p/questions/Siemens-Standby-Power-Interlock-Kit-125-Amp-and-Below-ECSBPK04/203262158/2
With the condition you described with the original pump state, even if you freed the rack pin, you may still have a non functioning pump. They should be disassembled and soaked to get to the inside pumping mechanism.
You should be able to loosen the hold downs and rotate each barb and then tighten back down. You might need to undo the hard line attached to the top though, as it can provide downward pressure and inhibit this rotation. This range directly effects how much fuel you are allowing the pump to...
The pump arms that the larger fuel lines go into, should be as close to the push rod tubes as possible. It looks like they are closer to the cast iron hold downs than the tubes?
Whats up with the fuel stop solenid? It looks broken and disassembled. Are you manually rotating the fuel rack for...
If you want to go with one that I know works, without disturbing the aux assembly, this is what I see: https://www.bigmikesmotorpool.com/products/24v-electric-fuel-pump-kit
Seems the Airtex E8131s arent available anymore online.. and I think the 8135 was a cross as well, which I am also having trouble finding past obvious Chicom generics.
If your primary pump is DOA, and you need to get a working solution NOW... you can take the rear fuel tank cover off the...
Does she have open breaker positions in her box? You could go even lower tech (but just as safe) and move the top RH (2) breakers and put a simple interlock kit in place. They make specific models, for specific breaker panels. They are low tech, and work perfectly every time (and are very easy...
I have a 200A service too, and I am able to run everything except my dryer without fault. Multiple fridges, multiple freezers, gas range, gas FHW, lights, tv, internet, well.
Honestly she should be able to keep them all on, if those appliances are gas and have no high draw coils in them. Well pump? Whats the range, oven, and clothes dryer powered by?
I think we understand now. Do know though the more technically correct you can be with terminology, the more common the understanding will be between those helping, and those in the future searching through threads seeing if anyone else has had the same issue as them.
If it were me, I would use a spider box. It will allow you to get more amperage out of your genset instead of being stuck at only 30A, is waterproof, has breakers, and is designed to do exactly what you want...
Yes you want to rotate the rack pin on each pump all the way to the left and then rotate the fuel inlet barb as far right as you can go with the hose in place. The pin of course is what does the removal of fuel, and the positon of the fuel inlet barb allows the range of fuelling to be...
Being that you broke out the BFH on those poor little metering pumps, you might just need to work backwards. Disconnect the hard lines above the pumps, and push aside... and try to start. Are they all pumping fuel? If so, reconnect the hard lines, and disconnect at the injectors and crank. Is...
