ineedanother 1,369 #76 Posted July 22, 2023 Very nice! Love the progress. You shouldn't want the condenser to sit upright if possible though. Water pooling on the business end from washing it or working in the weather can be no bueno Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chrishar 544 #77 Posted July 22, 2023 (edited) Got good news and bad news the starting part is good but the charging part is shot on the generator I will have to replace the shaft part has to much gap between it and the coils way to low of voltage to make the regulator work so far now it will start but will not charged Edited July 22, 2023 by Chrishar 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 48,821 #78 Posted July 22, 2023 Generally if the SG starts it should generate. Bad regulator? Go through and check all grounds. Going through that now here with a 701. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chrishar 544 #79 Posted July 23, 2023 (edited) Had it at a shop that rebuild generators we had it on a test bench the generator wouldn't put out no more then 5 amps it should be 10 to 15 amps without the regulator on it the starter part does not use that miney amps to start Edited July 23, 2023 by Chrishar 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
