Diesel Generator Question

Diesel Generator Question
Does anyone out there know how/where I can get a wiring diagram for
the control box/start/stop switch?. It's an 83 35FC SB with the 12.5KW
Perkins diesel gen. I believe the switch has been replaced and was
wired wrong. Was able to start by putting a screwdriver to the relay.
I also believe there could be a problem with that relay as well.
This BB has set for at least a year and will need some work but runs
well. Should run better now that the dried grass has been removed from
the air intake/filter. Guess some animal used it to make a nest. I am
amazed that this thing even would run the way it was. It was clogged
with grass!! Removed all the grass, vacuumed all the grass from around
the engine area and all the old doghouse insulation that was all over
the engine. This might explain some smoke that was coming from the
engine on the drive over....I'll post some pictures of all this mess
soon...
And even The Horn works....
