I have an entire Pincor genset model # RF4000HDVE that has the full power
option with the 110/220 series/parallel toggle switch. The unit is
Montgomery Ward branded. I have the head (alternator) pulled and it is in
good shape but the engine would require the flywheel magnet to be
remagnetized to run as is or I could set it up with a hall sensor or pickup
coil and run an automotive ignition module such as a 4 pin GM HEI unit but I
would rather repower it with a newer engine.
The problem is that the alternator mounts to the engine using a 7.75" bolt
circle instead of the J609B 6.5" circle. The shaft is standard 7/8" tapered.
The only engine I have found so far that has the 7.75 in addition to the 6.5
is a Briggs Vanguard that would be too powerful for the head.
Does anyone know how I might drive this head and if there are any properly
rated engines that it will mount to? I may have to resort to getting some
7/8 shaft stock and a bearing and convert it to a dual bearing head instead
of single. BTW I have a headache now from searching trying to figure this
out. I have even printed out the owner's manual for the genset.
I also am pretty sure that just the rotor from this alternator weighs about
as much if not more than the entire Chicom generator from the other
unanswered thread.
