Why would they replace just the meter on all these units? If they went though a rebuild and that warranted a new meter, im ok with that. In fact a rebuilt unit imo is better than a 15 year old unit that sat around collecting dust. Dry rot would render most rubber lines useless.

Yes, they are 15 year old gennies, but where else are you going to get a 5kw, watercooler, quiet, 1800 2cyl diesel generator for less than a grand? You're approaching commercial single cyl screamer gennies at that price. Overall i think these were a screaming deal even with reserves. Sold as...

The ones with low hours went for 1000+. The higher hours were around 900, the really high hours were in the 600s and the basket cases went for 400s. So far two of mine from the same lot as yours only needed secondary fuel filters and orings. Two had good water separators. All had the bowls...

Man, talk about human nature. So the rest of the gennies with the previous reserve just finished bidding. Most ok ones went for more than what the reserve was set at last time! So no reserve and you guys are bidding away like crazy? Weird.

Meh, i'd pay $800 for the 802a all day long. I dont know what kind of expectations you guys have but from what i saw while bidding on the 002a i won a few months back and what i read here, average prices for 802a's are in the mid 1000's for average and 2k + for nice running units. **** i was...

Quick update. After working on them today i can update this post a little bit. As i suspected, the "cranks but doesnt start" most of these gennies got as a description was due to draining of fuel. All had fuel filters missing from canister and o-rings were shot. Managed to get one canister...

They'll go back up for sale soon with a lower limit. It may even be beneficial as by that time i'll have a detailed report on the units i won, and it wont be such a crapshoot. Most were in the same or very similar conditions. There were IMO only three units where i positively wasnt gonna bid...

Like Suprman, i bid on more than the gennies i won, in fact some of my high bids that didnt meet reserve were higher than my winning bids on other lots. The different reserve limits made that happen. In the end i had high bids on three more gennies that didnt meet reserve and i havent heard...

Sorry to break this to you guys but those units were in excellent shape. Went and inspected them ALL last week. Other than a few units with obvious high hours and wear and tear, and one unit with smashed control board, the rest were all complete units. The reason so few ran is that the fuel...
