Re: [MBZ] Diesel Generator
The one I had was purely mechanical injection, Shutdown was a manual lever that was mounted on the injection pump. It had an electric starter AND a pull starter, it also had a compression release so you could pull it through with the pull starter. Very primitive design... third world stuff. nothing fancy.. The no start , no run issue was, I believe, due to failure of the injection pump in some way. I could get light off using "death in a spray can" but it would not sustain running, which told me no fuel at injector. I wrote it off and gave it away... it sucked several hours of my life and gave nothing back.. I moved on.

I was thinking it'd be worth it just to get the engine. I've got a Cub Cadet that could use an engine transplant.

Re: [MBZ] Diesel Generator
Yes, pure Chineeeseum junk. I had one given to me with the same issues. I have it to someone else.. neither of us could get it to run for more than a start and die... It had a total of 320 hrs of run time, when no start/ no run arrived. Unless you truly need an awkward boat anchor, avoid the urge to own it.
