    How I moved the 803 to the rear yard ALONE.

    Let me start by saying....I don't plan on moving this thing again for a very long time! LOL Ok It took me some time to decide exactly where I wanted to place it.

    Anyone with a 803A in Jersey that I could hear in person??

    I'd like to hear what the genset sounds like in person before I go ahead and pick one up. Ive heard them on youtube but Im sure they sound different in person. So if anyone in the area doesn't mind firing theirs up for a few mins i'd appreciate it. Ron
