Yes we do stock these. It's used on all our generators and we are also a distributor so they are always in stock for both our customers and our production.

@@AuroraGenerators From 2019 to 2024 the chips and electronics needed for the control boards in everything I repaired have been in very short supply. Thanks to "lean" supply chain gimmicks there were no control boards stockpiled. The price of a simple board shot up making quick repairs into catastrophic expenses. Customers chose to abandon working engines and scrap other capital intensive equipment because without control systems they were useless. Thanks to proprietary software controlling the equipment with analog hand made electronics was impossible. The past five years have been a slowly unraveling catastrophe because it was like half the world went dark. Factories and companies hastily fired their employees and tried to entice them back with wages that had crashed in value. So I'm asking is there a supply of these intended for future emergency repairs? Like a warehouse full somewhere? Just in case Dynagen stops making them suddenly? I know this seems like an odd thing to ask but genuinely try and hang onto a supply of backups in case manufacturing ceases again. Take the lean out of your supply chain and bulk up for winter. With a fat supply chain its possible to profit where others just fail and their products end up as scrap

The typical home will use an average of 0.5 gallons per hour. However, this can vary depending on whether the generator is properly sized and the amount of load it is carrying. Typically, an average home will consume 0.5 gallons based on less than 5 kW per hour usage.

Hi, these engines (thousands of them) are all based on the Yanmar YDG Series - you'll see 170F and 186F, 186FA and very similar, but mostly with 186, sometimes 170. Aurora is a Canadian company and they use the 186FA (I think), the Chinese push out lots of different brand names, but they use identical engines, and generator numbers, depending on the electrical output. If you want the manual for this engine/generator, the best I have seen is Aurora's - do a search for "AGI6500DE & AGI6500SDE Operator / Owners Manual Version 11.4.1." It is a very good manual, far better than most. People have trouble finding the valve clearances - really simple, they all appear to be 0.15mm for inlet and exhaust. I am certain of this because I've researched many sources. I'm in the Philippines and I can get most simple parts like gaskets, AVRs, fuel pumps, piston rings and injectors very cheap online - again Chinese copies of the genuine Yanmar parts. If you need bigger parts such as a piston or crankshaft you can usually order through the larger industrial hardware stores.

From the Aurora manual "After the initial 25 hour break in process, synthetic diesel engine lube oil 5w40 to 15w40 is required." Don't used synthetic before 20 hours because it can gum up the cylinder - use regular diesel oil. You can download the manual by searching for AGI6500DE & AGI6500SDE Operator / Owners Manual Version 11.4.1. It is a very good manual, far better than most. For the diesel deep knowledge search for "Yanmar 170F manual" and click on the manuals.lib link - it is free and massive (about 170 pages If I remember right) - how to strip down the engine and reassemble. Don't worry about the names - the Chinese (and Aurora) ripped off the Yanmar YDG series. They are all closely based around the 168F and 168FA engine gensets. For your valves, both inlet and exhaust are 0.15mm/0.006" - some references say .004' inlet and .006" exhaust, but they both include 0.006" in the their ranges, so 6 thou is given by most sources - it's what I use on my father in laws 3500W gen and my own 6000W (both 186F engines).

0.008mm intake for exhaust 0.012mm

@@lyndonlawas2367 thanks you very much, sir

@@lyndonlawas2367 Hi, I disagree. I have spent hours over the last few weeks researching 186F/FA engines. Some sources state 0.1-0.15mm (0.004-0.006") inlet and 0.15-0.2 (0.006-0.008") exhaust, but most state 0.15 for both. 0.15 fits both ranges, consequently most sources go with 0.15mm/0.006" for both valves. I'd love to know where your figures come from because they are an order of magnitude out. I've just adjusted my brand new 6kW gen and my father in laws 3.5kW gen to 0.15mm and both start and run perfectly with no noticable tappet noise.

0.15mm/0.006", guaranteed. Please read my reply to Lyndon.

@@tyrotrainer765 0.15 for intake and exhaust gap ?
