    Need M1031 generator wiring help!

    My problem is that the engine isn't speeding up enough . . . when I engage the governor circuit, it speeds up slightly then levels off. It never speeds up enough to hit 2nd gear. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the magnetic sensor on the PTO . . . is there a way to test it?

    Need M1031 generator wiring help!

    You can ignore the above post . . . I got the governor circuit working today. Unfortunately, I'm still not making electricity. I'm not sure what the problem is. When I turned the switch in the cab on, the engine slowly came up in RPM. It seemed to hunt for the correct speed . . . speeding up...

    Need M1031 generator wiring help!

    Another question . . . I engaged the PTO for the first time yesterday. I took a little "convincing" (aka grinding) to engage it and seemed to spin fine. Unfortunately, now it won't disengage. I ended up disconnecting the cable and the lever on the PTO spins around about 300 degrees and then hits...

    Need M1031 generator wiring help!

    Need M1031 generator wiring & PTO help! I bought an M1031 back in September from Ft. Polk. Truck seemed to be in pretty good shape other than it was missing the starter, the flexplate was pretty chewed up, and the wiring was a bit of a mess. I replaced the flexplate, bought a new 12v starter...
