The good news is:
- The flashing function is working, the wiring to the exciter is good and the exciter is good. (7.5 volts)
- The stator and the rotating diodes are good. (124.12 volts)
- The Quad Winding is good (5.9 volts)
Two more things to check before condemning the voltage regulator...
Pin 5&6 DC voltage on VR. With S1 In start while running is 7.5
AC voltage at convenience outlet wit set running an S1 held in start is 124. 12
AC voltage across VR terminals 7&8 with set running and S1 held in start is 85.9
I won’t be back to where the Generator is until Monday, I will certainly do as you have explained and get back to you with some numbers. I do know that when the set was running this evening I check the voltage on the convenience outlet and while running it was 7.6 volts. Your help is very much...
I see, I will place a fuse in between the Quad winding pins. This could be the culprit, I had to wind it for a little while be cause the injector pumps were dry for having been taken apart. Should there be an ohm that is standard across the quad pins? Could you possibly put me in contact with...
Ray this is a picture or the voltage regulator and inside the interior panel. The only fuse I see is the one to the left and it is a 32 volt fuse. I checked it right after I shut the engine off that fuse checked good but was hot to the touch. It is set on 110 at the moment but I’ve tried setting...
Ray I correctly assembled the fuel pumps, the engine now starts and runs excellent, shuts off great but it now shows no volts and is reading 60hz. Before this it was reading 240 volts when set on single phase 220, I know that fixing the IP’s doesn’t have anything to do with the charging system...

Ray I’ll post the results of correctly assembling the pumps on Monday, I really appreciate the help, I now understand why the IP needs to be counterclockwise toward the push rod tube, at least far enough to allow the rack to return the IP back to the off position when the engine is shut off and...
guyfang, yes it was the same thread, someone had put the pumps together with the piston that is pushed up by the tapet 90 degrees off . The first picture is correct the second picture was the way the pump was put together. I was told to contact you and I tried to send you a message but couldn’t...
I’m new on here and would like some help please. After purchasing a mep 803A at an auction it would crank over but would not run. I began to inspect the injector pumps, the one furthest from the radiator was stuck half open. I took it apart and cleaned it with paint thinner and marvel mystery...
