1) FL1 & FL2 were moving freely. The bottom float was deteriorating, so we replaced it. Old one was foam. New one appeared to be plastic. 2) Didn't see any debris in the tank. 3) Didn't find any loose electrical connections. 4) Fuel cap was in the full tight "fording" position, so we backed it...

Can you share a picture of that IP?

If the exhaust is blowing junk towards the house, you can easily redirect that with some pipe fittings. The exhaust is threaded for standard pipe (1-1/4" NPT). If it were me, I would temporarily add an elbow and a short piece of black iron pipe so it's pointing away from the house. If you use...

Does the electric fuel pump feel warm right after it shuts down?

Their electricity came back online just in time for supper.

Is this the video you're thinking of?

My folks have been running on a Mep-802a since yesterday morning. Edit: Power has been restored. Storms rolled through and knocked down over 100 poles in the area. Heavy straight line winds and several inches of rain made quite a mess. Things have been running fairly decent. My teenage son...

Looks great! Thanks for sharing :goodjob:

Here are a few more ideas. I have 2 803's on trailers with aux tanks. My first one is on a used trailer from a 25KW MQ generator. That trailer has a 40 gal tank built-in that sits between the frame rails. The rails are the same width as the 803 so it fits great. The other 803 is on a custom...

How do you intend to fill the tank? Will you be doing it by hand with fuel cans, or are you planning to have a truck come deliver fuel to your aux tank? If you're expecting a truck, make sure you have adequate space for them to park. Also, some fuel suppliers won't send a truck unless you're...

I used xylene to clean some junk out of a diesel tank last year when acetone wasn't cutting it. It worked well and turned almost black in the process. Might give that a try if all else fails.

Thanks! I wanted to share these IP part numbers in case people are looking for them in the future. Delphi = 751-41174A (TPF1Q070T3502) Stanadyne = 751-41173 (PF70/31466)

Hopefully soaking the injectors will help. Seems like you're on the right track. Your IP looks different from the others I've seen (Lister Petter / Stanadyne). Can you share the mfg and model# from yours?

It's kind of hard to see in this picture, but I'm wondering if the big spring exposed on the bottom half of the IP is stuck in the compressed position? Are you able to rotate the fuel metering lever on the side of the IP, or is it stuck?

If the tire is old or bad, I'd be tempted to drill through both sidewalls. Then bolt the bottom down to the deck and the top sidewall to the rails on the generator. Probably wouldn't need to bolt it down at all for the proof of concept.

What happens if you temporarily put a piece of plywood or foam board vertically between the generator and conex container, preferably not touching either? Just curious if that would absorb/deflect some of the sound away from the container? If you have a spare tire available for the...

Looks good! Thanks for sharing the part #'s. I might give that a try one of these days.

Lister Petter part# is 751-41175. I think the equivalent Stanadyne part# is PF70/31466.
