That's helpful information!
Previous posts kind of sounded like the solenoid action was delayed after turning off S1 but was the solenoid reacted immediately when hitting the E-stop.
You may have the metering pumps adjusted incorrectly.
Are all 4 sitting in the block with the fuel supply hoses...
The solenoid has 3 wires. A black common and 2 colored inputs, 1 from the cranking relay and the other from the malfunction indicator.
Take a look at the schematic and you can follow the wires.
Also below is a picture of the connector wiring at the FSS.
Pin 1 at the FSS should have power when...
Because something is wrong with the 10K ;)
Seriously, both should act identically. There should not be any delay and there should be no difference between an 802 and an 803.
Something electrically is wrong with your 803 if power doesn't disconnect and the solenoid extend out immediately when...
Either way, E- stop or S1, killing power to the fuel solenoid, causing its plunger to spring forward, pushing the rack forward rotating the metering pump pins to the fuel-off position is the ONLY way to shut it off.
With it running, watch what the solenoid does when you turn S1 off. it should...
Good work getting it going again!
In the video I could briefly see the volt gage, which looked to be way above 240V ( assuming you have the machine set to 120/240).
Before you go too much further, verify the output voltage. If it can't be adjusted down with the knob, you may have blown...
If you are needing to update filters, I would strongly suggest swapping out the stock canisters and going with @Ray70's fuel upgrades for the 00X machines. Well worth it for long term owners, and better filtering and EASIER changes!
I tagged him, because I'm not sure if they are up in the...
If you can get a video together that would be great.
Thinking more about your problem, I'm wondering if you have an issue with your rocker arm adjustments?
It's starting to sound like you may be loosing compression as the motor heats up, possibly from the rocker arms being set too tight and...
When you get to tightening your fan nut, make sure its facing the right way.
It should be flat on 1 side ( outside ) and have a round "collar" looking protrusion on the other.
That round protrusion with the recessed center goes against the pump to allow the nut to put pressure on the fan blade...
slowly beginning to mis and then slowly die after a few minutes sounds like a fuel supply problem.
Do as the others have suggested by cleaning the fuel system.
In addition to cleaning the bottoms of the pumps and screens, listen to the pumps while they are powered on.
They should both click...
Not to split hairs, but I would not go with 1/2" bolts. You are better off with 5/8" or 3/4"
Mainly because these machines use a couple different length screws and 1/2" won't work in all positions, so why not get 1 size that fits all?
For instance, on the rear panel around the fuel tank, several...
It won't be a failure... EVERYTHING can be repaired, it's just a matter of working your way through the gremlins.
If you got the set cheap, being a non-runner, you can dump a ton of parts and money into it and still be ahead of the game based on what 803's sell for these days!
I usually just go on the internet and find 10-32 ( 5/8" or 3/4" long ) flange bolts and serrated flange nuts ( for places where you don't have the captive nut )
Either stainless or galvanized.
They usually come in bags of 50 or 100
Think I've used ebay before and possibly Amazon. Pretty much...
Either one is better than pump diesel! Essentially the same product but without the added road taxes.
Not sure on the price, but many carriers will also bring you off road diesel in a 55gl drum if you don't have a storage tank, but I can only assume it is substantially more expensive that way.
Yup, the good old Suzuki Samauri overflow bottle!
AND, if any of you 802/803 guys out there need a cap for an OEM overflow bottle , head to Walmart, buy a 5Qt bottle of Super Tech Oil ( any viscosity will work ) this is the blue bottle / house brand Walmart oil.
Use the oil for whatever you...
If I recall correctly there were 2 duplicate threads running ( which gets confusing ) the purpose of deleting one is to keep all the data contained within a single thread and not have different people posting info in 2 different places.
I think the problem here is that the primary thread got...
Correct, they absolutely do need to be indexed correctly otherwise you will have all sorts of issues.
FYI, you have to call them metering pumps. "Injector" as related to the 802 and 803 will mess up your search results and you may not find what you're looking for. Can you post a link to that...
