Any chance of posting a video of the speed fluctuation? First thought is a governor adjustment issue. ( incorrect droop adjustment )

What the??.... Someone slather on some caulking over the t-fittings? Seems like maybe the return lines were too loose and/or swollen up from incompatibility with diesel, and someone tried taking up the space with silicone and zip ties??

This may be a silly question but how did you run it out of fuel? If the low fuel cut-out switch malfunctioning?

I remember seeing one of Chrysler's Turbine cars in a museum somewhere.... I want to say it was at the Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation.

Just an FYI, 99% of the time the reason the LPW4's get stuck is due to water in the cylinders ( down the exhaust ) causing the pistons to get stuck. Many times you can free them up, hone the cylinders ( replace rings if necessary ) and be good to go. A couple times I have had to go .010" over...

Bet my son would yank out the turbine out and put it in his Go-kart or another tractor project the moment my back was turned!

In your case it sounds like you want straight 120V not 240 split into 2 legs as you describe above. I believe there should be a sticker on or near the clear cover over the lugs that tells you where to set the selector switch and where to hook up your wires. I know the 016 is different than most...

What's the military's term for the exact opposite of "Tactical Quiet" ??

Sort of... the input shaft on a stick is a single bearing on the far end of the input shaft, right before where it meets the main shaft, allowing some slight movement of input shaft at the tip where the pilot bearing is. The pilot bearing alone is what keeps the clutch and shaft in perfect...

A ground rod definitely won't hurt! But I thought you still had everything all torn apart? Guess you will be putting in a full day on it tomorrow! Good luck, we'll be awaiting an update.

I would say you're correct about the simpler alignment aspect. Many similar type pieces of equipment are built this way. It definitely simplifies assembly as well as repairs. You would be hard pressed to get any engine and driven unit bolted solidly together if both used bearings on both ends...

Fuel these days isn't what it used to be! What used to take years to gum up now only takes a matter of months in some instances, without the proper additives!

Yup, that is the same ad, same guy I buy from. Best price you will find anywhere!

The fuel injector nozzle kits are available on ebay. Search for 147-0268 As for the pump kit, before buying make sure you are getting all the parts you need. Their "Rebuild Kit" # 85236 does not include everything you typically need, only the gaskets. It does not include a plunger guide if...

I don't think the OP was clear or might not even know what exactly the neighbor did to remove the solenoid plunger, but much like M32825 I have also seen these gens where the knob has vibrated loose from the shutoff lever, allowing the solenoid's plunger, spring and the linkage to fly out and...

Sounds like your injection pump ( what you referred to as a lift pump ) is not working properly. First off, is the electric shut off solenoid on the linkage below the injection pump pulling back when you crank the engine, and does the linkage move freely when the solenoid engages? If it has been...

Not to worry, we all have out moments.... I'm pretty sure I have done worse!

Welcome to he site, you will find a lot of great help here. Unfortunately a spare running DN4M will be somewhat scarce, might be easier to locate a cheap MEP-813 ( 400 hz. generator ) and take the motor out of that, since it is identical. Also, you should correct the title of your thread to 803...

Mike, I want to double check that you are now fully understanding the function of the day tank as Guy described. It is a gravity feed system from the day tank to the IP. You should not be looking for any significant pressure in the line to the pump as you had mentioned 6-7 PSI earlier. All you...

I'm here... just reading along in the background! I agree with everything the other guys... and Guy have said. First get it running THEN worry about fixing the electrical issues and making it pretty. For that $500 radiator hose, you can use a $20 universal courrogated hose available at any...
