Can someone give me a rough guess as to what it might cost to completly rebuild a 15kw marine genny. It's got a 3cylinder onan diesel that I'll do my self but I may have to get the gen head redone. I got it for $1100 plus shipping so I don't guess I did too bad. |

The alternator is usually pretty reliable and probably will not need work. After you get the engine running, check for output voltage. If none, the field may need flashed as they sometimes loose their residual magnetism during shipping/disassembly/re-assembly. Easy to do. TD can probably tell you how as he knows everything else. LOL

Fire Drills Of The World
We've all heard of a Chinese fire drill... And for those of you so
cast out from mainstream society that you haven't heard of one, it's
fairly easy to describe:
Chinese Fire Drill: The car pulls up to a red light; all the
passengers leap out, and get back into the car in different seats.
And so, in the interest of multicultural equality, we bring you
these fire drills of the world.
French Fire Drill: Everyone gets out of the car, and then surrenders
to the first BMW or Mercedes-Benz they see.
New Age Fire Drill: All the passengers in the car meditate on their
crystals, and agree that exiting the vehicle would be a waste of
bio-energy.
White South African Fire Drill: The passengers divide the car into
two different sections, and make half the people get out and walk.
Jehovah's Witness Fire Drill: Everyone gets out of the car and
starts distributing pamphlets to other cars parked at the light.
Hindu Fire Drill: Everyone commits suicide, and is reincarnated into
a different seat.
Branch Davidian Fire Drill: All the passengers get out of the car,
shoot at traffic cops, drop matches in the gas tank, jump back in,
and lock the doors.
Russian Fire Drill: Passengers get out of the car, and then all
stand in line to ride in the trunk.
Polish Fire Drill: Everyone gets out of the car and runs away,
leaving the keys in the ignition.
Catholic Fire Drill: Everyone gets out of the car, feels guilty
about causing a disturbance, and immediately gets back in.
Nazi Fire Drill: All the passengers get out of the car, beat up
drivers in neighboring cars, throw them into the street, and then
drive off.
Atheist Fire Drill: All the passengers refuse to believe the doors
exist, and stay where they are.
Feminist Fire Drill: All the passengers see the car as a tangible
expression of male dominance, get out of their seats, and kick the
vehicle to pieces.
Zen Fire Drill: The car does not stop, the passengers do not got
out.
Islamic Fire Drill: The passengers get out of the car, face Mecca,
and then return to different seats in the name of the Holy prophet
Mohammed.
Amish Fire Drill: All the passengers climb out of the horse-drawn
buggy, churn milk into butter for 12 hours, and then climb back into
different seats.
Italian Fire Drill: All the passengers get out and yell at each other.
Add to it as you see fit.... |

Irish Fire Drill: All the passengers get out of the car, drink a pint or three each, and land in a pile outside the car while trying to get back in. |
