Well since Ft. Riley is out of 5 tons for me to drag home, I have decided to begin collecting military generators. A big thanks goes to 98G for recovering it off base. It was missing a fuel pump, exhaust flapper, and a few other small parts. New engine, Letterkenny 2011 tier 2 reset, nice trailer with new tires. Took me a week of small repairs and chasing small parts, but she runs and makes electricity. Wonderful little machine, very impressed with the build and lack of noise produced.
Also a big thank you to guyfang for emailing the updated manuals, been reading them tonight; the second edition manual is much better and more informative.
I have come up with the idea of making a power distribution box out of a fat 50 ammo can, dwnorton is helping out with the wiring on that. Pics forthcoming of the finished box.
The only thing I have left to repair is the alternator. I read the manual, checked the FU1 fuse behind the panel, and changed the fuse with no improvments. I should be making almost 28 volts with the engine running, but am at 25.3 Batteries are new, and connections are clean, I have charged the batteries overnight with my Battery Tender. Oh well off to DC Ignition in Ada, OK for an alternator rebuild.
