I bought a 10k northern lights genset for the yanmar 3 cyl liquid cooled motor for a project. i'm looking for anyone that has info on how to convert it to a non fixed 3000 rpm. it is a model# 3tne78 ac-ad. thanks, Bill w
 
I have the yanmar 3 cyl in my gator if you need pictures
what are you planning?

Does this help? I'm thinking you remove the regulator spring and replace it with a something rigid like a turnbuckle then attach a mechanical cable to the top of the regulator handle.

As I see it w/o the spring the governor would rendered inoperable. might need a stronger spring but that might cause other problems.

BCZOOM Is correct the regulator spring is maintining 1800 rpms for the generator speed at all times the idle screw is set to 1800 rpms also.
