Fuelie/Heath In searching the TMs, try "governor adjustment" instead of throttle. The TM takes you through the entire process. You should get your injectors Sat/Mon. Give us an update once installed. Jerry:tank:

I only have one 003a, purchased 3 months ago, and was lucky enough to get 2 working military batteries with it. Jerry

I use a 12" adjustable wrench or something comparable to distribute the pressure on the fins. Back and forth as stated. If you break them, I have plenty of them. I know what you mean about saving your bacon. Mine too. Jerry :beer::beer:

I suspect you are "about right". Jerry :beer:

Jim, What a show machine! And to think it works also. Jerry

Jim, Glad the dipstick issue sorted out, Superb looking generator. You and JWB should team up. His wife does the South's best paint job and you are king of the North. Jerry

No smoke from the tube. You may have a damaged tube or dip stick. If so, let me know. Jerry

Jim, There shouldn't be any oil coming from the dip stick check tube. You are getting back pressure from somewhere. A smarter person should chime in soon. Jerry

Johnyray13, Good observation. My sons live in Warrenton and Herndon. Maybe we can get together and I can learn, Jerry

Jim, My computer has been down and I just got a chance to scan the board. Ike's response on a different thread may apply to you. It makes all the difference in the world which cylinder you time off of. You need to do it off #1 (closest to the fan). That may account for your problems. I...

Approaching 180 degrees from normal but I forgot you had to split the unit. Seems reasonable.

Who know what the guy did that had it before me. Jim, Very true. I'm assuming you found the A and B marks on the flywheel to enable you to do the valve adjustments correctly. Jerry

It is not the pump that lets fuel get to the cylinders. Rather, its the injectors and timing and valve adjustment that appears to be the problem. No one has ever criticized an IP for providing too much fuel (in my memory). Fuel is beinf delivered at the wrong time or not compressed enough...

The fuel cutoff solenoid only retracts when you try to start, not when priming. I'd start with valve adjustments then governor adjustments. You are obviously getting fuel past the IP. Crack fittings at each injector while cranking to see that each cylinder is getting fuel and all air is...

Jim, What a job you have done! Jerry

Jim, Believe me, I understand. Expect a 70 lbs package in the next two days. Jerry :beer:

Jim, You are doing it right and obviously have far more shop capability than most of us by far. I envy you. Jerry :beer:

pm sent. Jerry

You will KNOW the unit when you are done. Big advantage. Jerry
