try changing the ignition control mudule. it sounds like that's heating up to the point of malfunction causing it to not be able to run the engine properly. the same problem can occur in other vehicles like the 3rd generation Chevy camaros.

Yes. Compressing air heats it up. The compressed air from the turbocharger should be cooled before it enters the engine. Not using a charge air cooler severely limits the benefits available from turbocharging.


When shutting down a 6KW generator which step do you take directly after turning off equipment plugged into the generator?

If the engine was running under full load (6000 watts) let the engine cool down for about five minuets with no load on it and then shut the engine off. An air cooled engine can be subject to thermal shock and bringing the temperature down slowly is the best way to prevent this from happening.


Yellow oil sludge on oil cap?

Yellow or "milky" sludge on oil filler cap is caused by short, frequent driving and not allowing engine to reach operating temperature because crankcase vapor, inside engine, isn't being allowed to "boil" off of crankcase and starts to film on engine block. Shutting off engine when it's not at operating temperature will cause it to stick to engine then restarting a cold engine, driving short time will start this all over again. Always allow engine to reach operating temp, it's ok sometimes but not all the time.


Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor?

The engine coolant temperature sensor is usually on the front of the engine. The coolant temperature sensor will be in the vicinity of the thermostat housing.
