Went to Lake Butler today to pick up a 831a generator, I called prior to give them a heads up. When I arrived Eric already had my gen on the forklift ready to load.
Very nice guy, guess he was at Albany yard previously. Anyways big shout out to Eric , thank you sir!

Hey folks, thought I'd do a review of my experience of trying to keep my 831a mobile.
When I first acquired it , I put it on a 40"x48" trailer and intended on parking it next to my 803a on the power end of my house. After finding out how fickle these 831s are to moisture, I moved it into...
Hey fellas,
Make sure your gens are down wind from your home's. I'm sure all of us no enough to have them far enough away from windows, garage doors ECT. , but
Watch out for your neighbors who may not!

I'm tracing the circuit from the AC interruper switch to K-1. I'm good to TB-5 & out , til it goes though J-6 on to K-1. How do the fittings at J-6 come apart? I can't find in the TM's how these connectors are to be separated , I don't wanna break these old 1995 fittings.
Has anyone tried bolting a 1/2" stem caster directly to the 4 corners of the skids on a 831a?
I'd think with 4 or 5" wheels would allow it to roll on solid ground.
I gotta say ,I'm more than happy with an 831a I worked out a partial trade with Demoh. I asked for a running unit, and he "self proclaimed OCD" , put together a ,IMO a perfect machine.
This thing runs like new, (Kurts controller as well). I put it on the little yard trailer and pull it...
It's been discussed that the Airtex e1074 is the replacement fuel pump for 802/803s , but where do I find the specs of replacement fuel line ? (Circled parts)
Nsn #s lead to no actual description of said parts. Or did I overlook it somewhere, crosseyed from chasing #s.
Thanks

That time of year again brothers, peak of season on the east coast. Everyone fueled, locked & loaded ready, Florence may get close.
I just added a 50amp distribution box to my setup.
Does anyone have any experience with this fuel connection? It's listed as a gravity feed connector for 5 gal or 55gal. Found a few on eBay for around $23 shipped.
I put my mule to work yesterday. Started it up, got it up to temperature, plugged in the stove and started with broiler (3400watts) for 15 minutes. Then added 2 small burners (2400watts) ran that for 2 hours. My percentage rate meter does not seem to move much at all. Gained a couple degrees in...
Hello fellas
