Powertech Genset Kubota Engine Oil Pressure Sending Unit Part Number?

[david brady]

I had a melted intake runner too. Powertech made it out of PVC tubing.

I made a new one out 2" diameter copper pipe and elbows. Works good.

Ron,



I had similar problems earlier this summer.

Right now the coach can't be moved because we had to send the HWH
controller box back to the factory, but...



I experienced voltage irregularities while running all 3 roof airs in
100-degree heat earlier this summer. I also had terrific black smoke
and soot coming out of the exhaust. Eventually, the generator safeties
kicked in an shut down the generator as I was parking at home.



Ralph noticed the air breather pipe had gotten hot and been sucked into
an oval shape. It was in the early process of collapsing.

He was not able to figure out why the safeties couldn't be reset but
suspected the quadrature windings (?) and/or voltage regulator (placed
in a position nearly impossible to reach) might be faulty. When we can
move the coach, we'll take it Parker Power. They worked on my 84FC
years ago.



And FYI for anybody, when the jacks and generator are operational
again, the coach will beperfect, road-ready and available to any
forum-folk for $190K.

(I'm getting calls at $195K so I must be getting close to the right
price.)

Pressure Sending Unit Part Number?

Thanks Brad, I live just outside Houston and haven't checked the local markets here yet. Got some sheet metal damage on my RV that I have to get fixed first before attacking my generator problem. It cleared up for my whole Alaska trip which took over 2 months but as soon as I got back in hot weather about Oklahoma, it started going dead on me again. Some kind of heat related problem maybe vapor lock. anyway I am sure a good generator man could hop right on it. Thanks again.

They're in the northwest corner of town.

Pete, I contacted Power Tech about three months ago on my generator problem and got told that since it was 14 years old, (Even though it had less than 700 hours on it..) that I needed to find someone to check it out. They didn't even want to talk to me or recommend what they thought the problem might be. Doesn't sound like good customer service does it?

To: WanderlodgeForum@ yahoogroups. com Date: Thursday, September 3, 2009, 10:16 PM FWIW, I was trying to get some info on oil filters, etc... and emailed Kubota Tractor... I was told "we can't support non-Tractor engines you must contact the [generator] manufacturer. " They went on to explain that some components on engines that have been installed by PowerTech (and other non-Kubota vendors) _may_ have non-standard parts as far as Kubota is concerned.
