That's good to hear that this post helped you out. I learned alot as well. Not sure if I posted it on this one or not, but I ended up working on another two 802a units and they were exactly the same. Guess it's "the nature of the beast" . I tested mine on the house, backfeed, in preparation...

The first picture is the fuel filter, plenty of water and not much liquid came out.
It ran better as I posted.
Then the water seperator came in today and I swapped it. Notice light watery fluid as well.
The right can...
Update: replaced fuel filter and it's better. Handles load changes better. ONLY stalls when going from 11,500 to 12,500w. Much better than before.
I also found fuel bowl missing spring. So in the hunt for that. Then change the fuel seperator. Then I'll go from there.
Lastly I'm going to...
