I wished I could provide those details. I had another issue which ended up being a warranty issue from the marina so I asked them to look at the genset. After telling them what I had done, they said it was one of four things....capacitor, stator...and I can't remember the other two. He said the capacitor is easy to check and when they saw the rub, was pretty confident that was going to be it.Thanks for the follow up. How was the bad capacitor detected?
He first confirmed I was getting 12 volts and he said after that, it should measure 110, I guess there is some transfer of power. He said it didn't measure anything so he knew it was the capacitor. $20 part. Ran the genset for 2-3 hours today, good to have AC again.
