    Tuga,

    Here's a shot in the dark... Does the Newell have an air operated throttle and if so, could it be coming from the pedal.

    Tom,

    I have the same throttle as Roger, which I believe is not air operated but it has a sensor under the accelerator pedal. I used to get an error message "TPS failure low" and I talked to Roger to get a part number from him. I haven't gotten the error message ever since I disconnected the electric connection under the accelerator and plugged it back in. Go figure!

    Debi,

    I think that you nailed it; the muffler is shot. This would explain why you heard a roaring/hissing sound when we were in front of you and Bob climbing hills on the way to Kerrville.

    Is Bob-03 a lucky guy or what; he not only has a beautiful wife, but she is a great diesel mechanic. Some guys have all the luck. Move over Jon!


    Larry W,

    Welecome to the forum, and yes I did think to check the backup camera volume.


    Jim,

    I'm going to hold off on a Liberty for a while (until Jon puts his up for sale)

    Last oil change I used Diet Coke (it's cheaper than Mobil Delvac 1) instead of Snake Oil. I heard that it is better for a series 60; at least that's what Lew told me.

    Thanks for all of the help guys (you too Debi).

    Debi, I think Bob 03 said the coveralls are out in the barn (a new never opened package )

    Question Powertech Gen shut down

    My Generator cranks easy and runs for One minute and ten seconds then shuts down. It will then crank up and do the same thing. Any Ideas? Thanks, Dan

    Danss,

    Check your auto-start setting and disable to eliminate that. Also, if you have the programmable quiet time built in to the inverter setup, you may be in the quiet time parameters. I had a CC with Xantrex Inverters and it would do exactly as you said if trying to manually start during the quiet time period.
