Drilled two holes so I could use my better ladder. Started in on removing the three phase in coming power supply so I can go to single phase. This trailer had DC and 400 HZ power inside. For right now I just want to get the lights up and running so I will go 30 amp power in. Was thinking best...

Ouch.

Can you pull up any codes?

Might start here. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/lds465-1-multifuel-engine-troubleshooting-manual.116454/

Just thinking was that check with the truck aired up? Wonder if the valve is leaking air to the ram? I never had any problems with mine but.

Load tested all four of mine and all looking good. Guess I will wait till the problem shows it's ugly face again then start to worry.

Well for here I would pull the timing cover / some call it a shut down cover on the IP and check the fuel control unit assembly is moving free. Only two screws and 5 min. to check. I would do this before removing the center plug and checking the plunger for movement at this time. The nice thing...

As for the Aux. governor on top of the PT. It should be easy enough to look and the air ram on the PT and the linkage it pushes on to see if it is stuck on. The air ram pushes the PT Aux. linkage forward and if I remember there should be a small gap between the ram and leaver when disengaged.

Well keep us informed. Yep my 3116 did the same thing for the first time the other day after years of no problem. I was figuring that it was the way I pushed the push button. Most of the time I am standing on the step and reaching over the steering wheel to light her up. Have started it a couple...

Well since the cooler weather is coming thought since I do not use the 1088 I would let it hibernate. Charged up the batteries, toped off fuel tank to the least amount of expansion level left in the tank plus plastic bags taped off on exhaust and intake. Sleep little one sleep and dream of What...

Correct me if I am wrong 6x4. Looks like you have some extra small 12 and 24 volt taps. On the stock set up there would only be the one 12 volt tap for the glow plug / cold starting aide.

All of mine had the spun fiberglass for insulation and that seemed like a sponge and did not like to dry out. Best thing remove it and replace with something that does not hold water.

Just to be clear the red scribe is a timing mark as per the TM. We just have to make sure if / when we remove the Head and the red scribe is on the Head pointer we must reinstall the Head with the red scribe right on the Head pointer. Not almost one tooth off to the rear or anywhere else but on...

Per TM before we install the Head we check that the plunger sleeve is moving free on the plunger shaft. We do this buy turning the Head up side down and the plunger sleeve should on it's own slide down the plunger shaft. Then when we turn the Head right side up the plunger sleeve will slide on...

Yea I had a squeak and just put some grease on the three points on the horse shoe cab support that the cab sits on when it's down and took care of mine.

Yea the box is nice to have and since I can not remember dog poo believe it came from Harbor freight. Myself I still might go with the 1'' drive socket and if needed and just get the 1'' to 3/4'' adapter if I had to do it again. I have the Ingersoll Rand 1'' air impact and now the 1'' M18 but it...

Well any updates?

Yea with an automatic trans. coming down a hill we just lower the gears till we find one that keeps the RPM up to the point where the Jake brake works.

I have never checked what my 1/2'' drive will do when putting the wheel on only off. I think I said I check the 3/4'' drive M18 fuel one key and on power level 4 it was real close to 475 foot pounds. Guess I should check the 1/2" some day and report back. My thought was yea the 1/2 drive might...
