Hello Everyone,
I reflushed the radiator and noticed the radiator cap seal was split and in bad condition.. I purchased a new cap and added new coolant at the rate of 60% coolant to 40% water. Started the generator and it ran for 1 hour and 45 mins, so I shut it down. I pray that this solved the problem..
I have a trip planned for next weekend {labor day weekend} so I will post my results then.
I thank everyone for there input..

Good to hear. Hope that has got it.
 
Well everyone,
I went on my trip and the old generator did not last the whole trip. It only ran for about 30-40 minutes. The outside temp was about 99 degrees.
Im about to give up on fixing it..
 
I had the same engine shutoff issue with error 33. I dropped my generator and replaced the temperature probe, thermostat, glow plugs, and flushed the radiator several times. After reinstalling the generator, I still had the same shutoff with code 33... Finally, I tried installing a new fuel pump and that solved my issue. If you haven't yet, try replacing your fuel pump & filter. Best of luck!
