I'm good at doing things for the first time! Here's my guess on how it happened... Over the years, water made its way in & it ended up settling out in the mount there making it weak. I got it & mounted it on the trailer. When I tow it, I do a lot of off-road to get to my off grid cabin. Some...

It's been a while, but a problem popped up. The mounting tab on the generator head broke that is on the output power lugs side! For the longest time, I could hear a clunky type vibration noise but could never figure it out. Must have been this before it completely failed. Noticed the...

I like the idea of the reel. May need to do this on mine.

I had no luck finding one myself when looking. Just ended up making something else work.

I sent you a message directly with the information to the place I went!

I didn't think it would matter in the video so I didn't say. It was the old Driveshafts Unlimited in San Antonio, TX. They were bought out by INT Truck Parts.

So, I decided to tackle another issue on the truck. Major fix complete!

Trailer has been serving me well. Wanted to come back to share a GREAT link I found for parts on the brake actuator system. https://www.hawktet.com/product-category/brakeactuators/brake-actuator-parts/

I found it on Amazon & wanted to come share in this old post; https://amzn.to/3sB5Yso

If you are able to rotate the pump 90 deg, you can't be in the fork. When you rotate that far, it comes out. The thud you are hearing is the regulator hitting the engine block because it is not lined up properly with the hole. You will need to work at it to get it in the fork. It is not easy...

No big deal. They're not very similar. The 016B injection pumps are much more beefy & the way the fuel rate is adjusted is much different. The LPW injection pumps are more similar to the Yanmar ones on the smaller MEP units.

If you're certain you're in the fork, center it as the TM says & if it's still stubborn, try prying it a bit. Maybe that unit is just tighter or my idea of yanking it out with my hand is different than yours. The key is pulling it straight out so the main body doesn't bind where it fits to the cam.

I actually just realized I don't have a good picture of my trailer. Here is a link to the post in my thread when i finally mounted the generator to the trailer; https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/m116a3-fix-up-conversion-thread.188781/post-2220488 You can see it also at the beginning of one...

Dang, that adjustable channel factory part looks good. I looked all over to find that. I ended up having mine made at the local trailer shop. What is the height of the ring at the highest adjusted point?

There is nothing that can come apart on the injection pump unless it really is messed up bad. less than 1% chance it is that. Are you sure that the injection pump is in the governor fork? If it isn't, you need to finagle it back in. Best way to tell if it is still in place is if the throttle...

I have mine flipped around. The flap will open, but I put a cord across it.

After letting the truck sit for a bit, I tried again. I tried XC mode & the wheel valve sealed up after about 5 seconds of staying open. I have determined that the problem is between the passenger rear lug port & the port that is behind the wheel. I used one of the nuts off the spare that...

Thanks!
