The electric heater isn't enough to overcome fridgid temps. They are probably getting hot. If you have air closed circuit recirculating thru a tent eventually it will start to warm it. It won't take in cold outside air and blow it out hot.
If you don't have voltage to the actuator the engine cannot run. Actuator is the fuel solenoid. It retracts with voltage so the fuel rail can move open. That's why if you remove the actuator the fuel rail will move full left and it will run. The system varies the voltage to the actuator to...
You can take the fuel solenoid out and it will run. When you crank on normal setting there should be voltage at the actuator contacts. The speed controller varies the voltage to control engine speed vs load so you can't just apply voltage and expect it to work. Gotta look at the schematic in the...
Make sure the signal is making its way to the governor module. For some reason the governor isn't opening the fuel solenoid if there is only voltage at the solenoid when you crank on cold start. Could be a bad connection somewhere. Could be the governor. The manual doesn't have step by step...
The manual isn't good for much. Usually screw the sender in till it touches the back off 3/4 turn. You can put a multimeter on ac and crank it. See if you get a few volts.
Cold start kicks the rpms up higher than normal start. Can mask other issues that will prevent normal idle. Does it do anything in normal start mode? Did you completely drain the fuel tank and put a new fuel filter on. And replace any cracked lines? Fuel pump is mechanical. Round thing side of...
Manuals are in the tm section. Did you drain the fuel tank first and change the filters? Cold kicks the rpms up. Check for dry rotted fuel line too. Once you get all that done and some fresh fuel in there chances are it will run better.
Ok. The gett gens are Applied. Drash is hdt. I got the hvac manual from Applied. They said they didnt have the gen manual. I prefer the Drash gens they have really good support too. The Applied ones can be had for alot less than the Drash.
I have the hvac manual I need the gen manual. Use sheet metal size adapters so you can use what mil ducting you can find even if the size is not an exact match.
These have maybe a 1/4 inch hole for wire. If you want to crimp them it has to be with the proper aero terminal crimper. If then terminal pins get out of round they wont fit in the hole. The torch would be overkill for this.
I have the smaller hand crimper it wont do those big pins. You have to lay out the whole assembly with cable. Dont want to get it partially together and then see you forgot a piece and have already started soldering. I used really thin 60/40 solder. Thinner the better. Need something to hold the...
