Re: The strip-down and rebuild has started..let the healing begin!
Martin,Steve, ?,
Thanks..........for a few days there I thought I was "talking" to myself! This is the first (of many) generator's I've restored, everything before has either been guns, VW's or motorbikes, BUT............I LOVE working on these things. You can fit them on a bench and work sitting down, take parts for blasting in a rucksack - a LOT easier (and cheaper) to work on and get parts for.
She WILL run again!
All I really have to do now is top-coat the "to be painted" parts (waiting for the right paint right now) and start re-assembling. I've just received the correct fuel tank for it (the previous one was post war) and the correct air-filter....once it's all in one piece I'll see what the score is then. I HAVEN't serviced the carburettor as when I took it apart everything LOOKED OK - but with carbs...........you'll never knoiw until you fire them up!
I'm trying to AVOID rushing the last stages as I'm starting to get more and more excited as it takes shape...might leave it stand for a week or so.
(yeah....right.......we'll see!!!)
I STILL need somebody to find me a picture of one in service.............I don't know what accessories are missing and anything else that might be astray. There is a turn-latch on the "bodywork" for some sort of flap or extra cover.......but I have NO IDEA what it's supposed to look like............guys please.......have a look through any books you might have on Luftwaffe equipment or comms equipment,
Mike

Re: German generator
Very nice piece of equipment you got there, and a great job you are doing. Is it a 50 or 125 ccm engine?
