    Finally had a chance to work on my generator. And all I can say is thank you to everyone on this site. I’d also like to thank Gary Jones. I got parts and a lot of information from him. I put a video up on my YouTube if anyone is interested in watching it. YouTube site is p32pac1. The generator...

    While I’m waiting to source the pumps I will take the side cover off and check for debris for sure.

    Yeah I’ll try a magnet and see if I can fish anything out. You know a good source for the injector pumps???

    Finally had a chance to pull fuel pumps. Found some interesting stuff pics attached. Definitely the pumps are an issue. 3 of the 4 small fuel rail bars are broken off and one looks damaged as well. They were very loose and leaky when I got the unit so I hope someone just swapped out good ones...

    Ok I’ll leave 4 in and do the other 3 and get a feel for the rack. I’ll let you know how I make out. Hopefully I won’t have a 1200lb boat ancho. Lol

    I have done that already and I did have no resistance at all except on injector #4 so I’m sure something is stuck.

    I think it’s the fuel rack as well. I will pull the injectors and and follow procedures for reinstall. I have to go out of town for a few days but as soon as I get back I will do it and let you know how I made out. Thx again.

    Guyfang. I loosened the black knob and followed the tm you posted and still no change. Racing and smoking just like before. Im ready for your next suggestion if you have any.

    Ok i will check the knob and set the engine stop screw and let you know how it goes.

    Guyfang. I did the 30 second test you requested. If you don’t mind I posted it on my YouTube channel it’s p32pac1. Thx again for the help. When the generator first started it sounded ok but then started racing again and obviously did not turn off right away. I set the stops back to where they...

    Thx reset2 I have a couple good things to check for sure. I did get it from gp.

    Mep-803a high idle

    Ok I will do that before I do anything else. I didn’t want to move the set screws at all but I had to rule something out. Thx.

    Not sure about the video it was a link to my youtube p32pac1 if you want to go there to check it out. Couple of good ideas I will look into them.

    Ray70. If you watch my video it shows that it does not shut off right away and I mention that in the video.

    Mep-803a high idle

    I did test with 2 heat guns but the frequency did not move at all. Not much of a load but something. I think its an issue with the governor as well. I really don’t want to let it run for to long either because the temperature starts to go pretty high. Is the governor something that can be...

    I understand it needs to run at 1800 but I can’t get the frequency to move with the frequency knob. I don’t want to hook it up to my entire house at 65 hertz I don’t want to damage anything.
