Cub diesel generator, complaints of rough running, not generating power. Single cylinder, I pulled injector, and injection pump to be disassembled, cleaned, inspected, and reassembled. No problems found, I removed a .010" shim under injection pump, to adjust timing, which improved condition. I also put a load on the generator, to see if it would burn out carbon and clear up. I checked fuel in filter bowl, and it was ok. Went to re-prime fuel lines to injector, and now the fuel pump isn't pushing fuel. I'm going to check the diaphragm in the pump next week.
Injector
Removing injection pump
I learned there are many things that need to work together for to run right even on an engine that seems so simple, and to take it one step at a time, not to get bogged down by trying to focus on too many things at once.
3rd week: 40hrs
Total: 120hrs
