    GM 6.2l diesel Al radiator replacement

    Any ELC will do you good. Or you can run green and add WIXCool (#24056) and check with test strips. Been running my old 6.9idi like that for a lot of years with no issues, but I do still have the original radiator.

    Fuel Pump Problem

    What make is it in (MQ, Wacker, etc) and what controller does it have? It could be something simple like stability setting, or could be (likely) a fueling issue. Curious on the controller to see if you can set the over freq higher to give you a wider window to diagnose it still running.

    Onan 60 kw 3 phase voltage fluctuates

    240/480 or 277/480? Diagram is there, you just need to connect your leads as shown. Pull the lid and see how they're currently set up and compare to the diagram, then change to the output you want.

    battery cable suppliers

    I carry the big blue one (TH0012) and a hammer style (TH0007) with me. Use each according to access/space and whether I'm building cables onsite or just replacing an end.

    battery cable suppliers

    Of course, but the indent type still works fine. Just need to do it all proper and heat shrink to prevent corrosion. What style cable ends are you looking at? Actual crimped terminal cable ends or crimped lugs to marine terminals?

    battery cable suppliers

    https://temcoindustrial.com/ I usually buy though their eBay store. Have a couple of their crimpers, and use their welding wire for any cables I build.

    John Deere Engine " Chuffing/ Fluttering?

    If it's an issue with hunting unloaded and stabilizes at full load, you might need to look into the sensitivity/stability settings. Can always start out old school and check your exhaust manifold with a temp gun to be sure it's not a fuel/compression problem.

    Yep, recently went through a mess of issues replacing a MQ (Thomson) controller because the charger wasn't shut off before swapping batteries. Old style dumb charger that went to full output with the batteries pulled.

    Bobcat 753 - Pulled engine, fixing leaks and fan drive.

    I feel ya Willie. Live out of a service truck and only personal vehicle is a 1986 F350 with a (now turbo) 6.9idi and swapped to 5 speed. Bought for under $1800 and it will outlive me. Now if only I'd get off my ass and reinstall the AC system after 10+ years without...

    Good point, should be able to reach out to a local Gehl/Mustang/Manitou dealer or rental yard with their machinery and see who they're working with for Yanmar parts.

    Sullair 375 Compressor with John Deere Diesel

    Oh, you'd be pulling the whole engine out. Oil pan needs to be pulled to access the oil pickup tube before the front cover can come off. Usually the front covers start to leak coolant and has to be resealed, and like I said; It is a process. I know the rental company I previously worked for...

    Sullair 375 Compressor with John Deere Diesel

    60 to 40psi from cold to operating temp sounds about standard. Work on quite a few of those engines that have a LOP pre alarm at 20psi, and won't shut down for LOP until 15psi. Oil pump is built into the front cover, and is a process.
