Anyone have a PDF copy of the manuals handy? All my searches come

Will end up getting a fully legal hard copy to leave at the
building, but that's after I get it up and running again.

Brice, sadly, I do not have a manual. However, I can put you in touch
with the buyer of my L423D, who is a real nice guy and may be willing
to make a copy of his manual in exchange for your $$.

What is going on with your engine?

I had two L423Ds and loved them, though people said that it was not
their best.

There is a manual on eBay right now: 180172180316.

Contact him and ask if he would give you the "Igor Discount". He is a
good guy, generally.

Forgot to say, SmokStak's "old onan generators" board has several
people who are basically experts in L423Ds (also known as Cummins A
series). They will probably guide you through simple repairs. In my
own case, the injection pump needed a rebuild (ring fell apart due to
years of sitting in a govt warehouse), which was done for $250 by a
retired repairer recommended by one of their members.
