Here is the priming solenoid with needle valve for fine tuning.

I like the idea of a single burst of priming fuel on a timer. It’s what we do when pressing the prime button on the KN demand regulator.

cool on the kit!
i question the dia on the small hose restriction...
on the button manual prime i think it kicks the demand wide open on flow.
that is mostly a 7/16 opening.
then restricted at the carby plate or the load block...

so i would place the prime injection after the load block in your kit.
i will have to get some octal base timers on the tri fuel kit page.
does the us carbs kit have a choke output for the 7000is?
it is done inside the computer for the fi burst when cold temps it over fuels on the injection at first crank.
that is why i used fi on the big clients ng setup for the 7000is...
i could burst the NG injection for prime by the temp and the afr on the lamda system.
cool on the computer injection i used for that system.
and no power loss on ng as the computer did the fuel map.
it did a solid perfect 5500 watts on ng for 100 hours on the testing of the first one.

Interesting idea to inject the primers fuel after the load block. If excessive cranking is needed to start the gen with the injection point before the load block, I’ll give after the block a shot.

There is no choke output is available. I’ll be tapping into the starter solenoid trigger wire at the GCU to trigger the primer solenoid.

Stand-alone FI for NG is pretty wild. What was the generator used for?

client with cell towers on pipeline.
BIG bucks system.
they are still working on the solar part.
covid hit and no ultra high output solar panels that they liked for the system.
the solar plant was in woohan.
they are still shut down.

I see, is it a backup solution, or for primary power?

primary right now...
it was intended as designed for a back up to the solar.

Jees, how many hours on that bad boy.

BIG numbers!!
real big
they changed the oil socks at 5000 hours.
just as a pm. and have changed the others socks at the 5 k hours.
the oil samples was just as clean as 200 hrs before the sock change.

the first gen is at 19k hours and still on the original 60 gallon batch of royal purple 5/30.
the numbers are perfect.
and still no blow by yet.
