So, I took the panel off & checked all the floats & switch for the No Fuel shutdown. All tested as they should. I checked to be sure the tank didn't have anything big moving around in it that could hit the float. The float is free. The connectors are all tight & I added the zip ties as suggested...

I will just remove the box & see if there are any issues inside of it. I like the idea of using small zip ties on the connectors as well. Haven't had a chance to open it up. I just finished going through the front axle on my truck. That was a learning experience.

I should have done it with the improved well nut that I ended up putting in. I was so focused on the work & somewhat fed up with working on it, the last think on my mind was to record something. A lot of the work was done at night as well. When I open everything up to try & figure out the...

Good to know if I do it again! Thank you.

DieselGenAC beat me to it, but here is the link; https://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200395476_200395476?isSearch=1659200

No kit. I did need to machine down the plate that bolts to the engine itself. The bolts lined up fine, but the shaft was a bit to short to properly mate up with the taper in the generator head. It would work but under load it slipped on the shaft. If I remember, it was ~ 0.025 total removed...

That's my video!

I found the TM .pdf files I had to suck. Went on here & found the thread where you shared them & they're much better. The ones I had couldn't be searched & I think pages were missing. This is the reason why I ended up asking questions about stuff that's in there... because I couldn't find it!

I wouldn't do that often, but I was pushing it hard to clean it out & figured I'd take a video. :)

I ran it at 110% for 3 hours & the light didn't come back... strange. Makes me thing it may be the switch itself on the fender randomly sticking. One thing I noticed... The screenshot on the left below was one I found online. The picture to the right is of my generator. I noticed the...

I have put two different & new float switches in. I haven't had time to rip it apart again... mostly because I don't want too! I've already spent way to many hours on it. I'm hoping that there is a stupid reason for it & I'll find it quickly & be done with it. I do want everything to work...

Did a good 100% load test for a little over an hour until I had it shutdown with the no fuel light.... even though the fuel level was more than a half tank. Brand new float switch! I also noticed lot's of smoke... see the attached picture. Besides the no fuel shutdown, it ran fine. Noticed a...

Here are some pictures of the finished work. I meant to upload them sooner but had family visiting. With the bad weather, my internet connection has been very slow as well.

I ended up loosening a bunch & got a few more lined up, but not all. Looking at it closely, when the radiator was taken apart, the top bracket was soldered back in place a bit tilted back. Same at the bottom. Used some punches as you suggested to get some holes lined up.This was the major...

Sure, that would be great! I will send you a PM. Thanks.

Do you recommend loosening all the body bolts from the skid up, getting the radiator into it's proper place, then tightening from the bottom up? Not looking forward to doing a bunch of work again, but I want it done right so I can just use it as needed & add fuel. :)

That's a real good idea... wish I thought on that! I may back track & do this if it ends up being a huge hassle.

So, got the radiator back. They cleaned out the inside & patched the hole. It was nasty in there! Started the install hoping to have it together in a few hours..... didn't happen. When they removed the tanks to clean it & put the radiator back together, it must have all shifted a bit. I'm sure...

Looking at it, I figured there should be something there. I have some scrap 1/2 thick plastic that I will fabricate into a 2x2in foot with a recessed part for the bolt to hold it in place. Thanks for the heads up!

Got everything done except the radiator install that I had left to do. Neatened & cleaned everything up that I could. Here are some pictures;
