I'm not sure, but from what I found with that compressor, it uses a 50 amp breaker. Did you have anything else hooked up to the genset with the compressor? Curious as the startup amps might be around 40 so it could be the motor didn't get enough to actually get going while under load from the...
Looks great!! I used some half inch pex pipe over that spring bolt to keep it from making noise. Covered it in grease. Worked great so far. I just glued the seal on the gate the other day. They make pretty nice gaskets that fit good now. I don't remember them being formed. 3m weather...
Well I know bleeding brakes isn't anything new and today I replaced the proportion valve for the brakes. It was stuck only giving brakes to the front. I found nos military ones online and got 2 valves, one for each blazer. Replacing the valve was straight forward. I started with the usual...
I remember sandy well...I don't live far from the beach. I'm not sure I can compare an area that is in the hurricane belt vs. new jersey that hadn't been hit by a hurricane in 100 years. The damage to the new jersey coast will obviously be obliterated vs a city in the hurricane belt should not...
I've been watching the over a million people without power still this morning. I'm glad you have a well and could stay cool and ok during the outage. I'm confused with the hurricane that hit the coast at a level 1 did that much damage for so many. I don't understand texas power companies and how...
That one kit I posted has 2 ports you can install in this. Did yours come with the manuals? That looks like they pierced it 2x in one spot...I'd try one of those valves on the line before I'd replace the line...you can pop the pin out when you install it and hit one of those holes. It has a good...
I think if you take the relay out with a diode that's fried the horn still goes off. You don't need to unhook the battery just turn off the blackout light switch. What relay did you put in that was a 3 prong type that had a diode in it? What does the spring being to short have to do with the...
Charging you'll need a basic kit to hook up with. That's easy...one can of r134a. Tough part is you'll need vacuum to charge properly. You can buy one of those too. You can take it to a shop and let them charge it but I'm not sure what an auto shop would charge plus if it leaked out you have to...
Have you bled the fuel filter? Pumped it till fuel comes out? Once that's ok...yes loosen injector lines...if you're worried about not getting fuel out put a clear return line on the ip...you'll see it quick if not. Those wired connections on the ip are fine...not stock but should work ok. It...
No we used all the original stuff in there with a few exceptions if someone was in there before and used weird stuff. Like to have the same bolt head size and not a mismatch. The passenger side main bolt goes through a cutout in the mount so it can be put in without taking the starter out.

Gotta remember that the oil is being cooled by 190 degree coolant...so is it really being cooled or is it being kept at a certain temp the engineers want it to be. Diesels don't like to be cold or to hot but like to be kept right at the coolant temp it's being run through. So is it really being...
Yes we've used them on all so far and no real problems at all. Only thing that we got was severe vibrations going into the cab...gotta leave the bolts loose and run the engine to let it find it's happy spot in the bay. That one we did the trans mounts at the same time and was a little twisted in...
Dang you are way up north!! My brother lives in bozeman and have friends south in kilespel. They all send pics of huge snow falls and very cold temps. My first question with that genset is where are you going to put it? I don't think sitting outside would work well with that much snow it would...
