Biggest problem is if you do not feed him he will eat the pencil and then you have to replace the pencil. He is pretty good at telling speed and RPM for some reason.

It will tell if a driver is driving like a mad man bumping the governor all the time.

Mine even came with the key no paper and everything still works.

I still want to know why there is low idle pressure. So when you get the new filter changed double check pressures. On a side note it really does not need the 30 psi at idle to start and Idle. Had a truck with the system over pressure valve on the secondary removed and truck still started and...

Yep about the same years no sticky on my Deuce when I sold it. The old Detroit 2 stroke with a stuck rack and then pulling the emergency shut down cover on top of the blower then that could suck the blower seals and run off the oil. If your fuel control is working free it is not going to stick...

Well glad your happy but. Ok the hill test is ok but you did not say what RPM you were at when took on the hill and what RPM you climbed the hill. AS we know a true dyno is the way to set EGT's but we have to do the best we can. If you do the hill test a couple of time I would make sure...

The close to correct fuel adjustment will be a truck size puff of black unburnt fuel till the turbo spools and you up and running then clearing as you reach higher speeds /RPM. Incorrect fuel setting a mile long black soot cloud will kill all mosquitoes in the area and most likely piss off the...

As long as the fuel control unit assembly under the timing cover / shut down rod is working correct and moving free the shut down cable will always shut down the motor. Before I try and start any multi fuel I do not know I remove the two screws on the timing cover shut down rod and make sure the...

When looking at the FDC wedge plate you will see the taper or how it looks like a wedge. When FDC is working and engine running it goes to the setting for what fuel you are running and stays there or higher on the ramp decreasing fuel but as said going to working specs. Then we bypass and the...

Since digging into the TM's again I was wrong and the FDC with is pressure regulating valve and orifice keep the pressure at 20/ 21 psi. So as soon as the engine starts and we have the 30 psi min. then at 1200 FDC goes to the setting for that fuel and stays there. Page 1-30 /1-31 TM paragraph C...

Yea I am hearing what you are typing and myself I would double check timing first. Plus there are two ways of checking TDC compression stroke.

Just asking did you follow the TM on install? It does get a little confusing but not too hard. Did you recheck timing to start with?

Yea you might need to see why you are low on idle pressure and as said it should be 30 psi minimum not 20 at the filter bleed. Can be filters and can be other things that are easy to check.

I am with you on this one and if you look at the Troubleshooting manual page 33 34 the droop is adjusted after the main fuel and only when we for some silly reason still have the FDC hooked up. It does not add any fuel or decrease any fuel and gen sets do not have an FDC but do have problems...

My A3 ran fine and always started but the check valve also ticked. Believe the fuel pump pulses and that causes the check valve to tick so we called it the truck Timex.

No worries and you got a Timex takes a licking and keeps on ticking.

30 psi minimum at idle and 60 minimum at high idle.

Getting old and forgetting just about everything and getting a spare tire around the waistline. For this reason if I remember I cocked the wheels hard to the right before I got started on the job. Helped me get into the engine without crawling over the front right tire.

Yea my oil cooler gaskets were leaking and went to Cat and got new embossed gaskets. I also used four correct bolts with the heads cut off to help hold the two plates and two gaskets together to help install of the cooler bolts. Also had to grind down a boxed end wrench just a little to get one...

No in tank fuel pump on A3's. The noise comes from check valve on the tank feed line.
