high idle kit to keep rpms up to prevent the coking a previous guy referred to. Also helps keep the alternator up to par for loads, I just installed a 160 amp aftermarket alternator vs the 110 that was OEM and indicating it was on its way out.
With diesel gens (big ones) if you idle them too long without load they will soon soot up bad and have problems, thus the need for load or high idle to keep it burned off (called wet stacking). They say this is the problem with the EGR sooting up on the 6.0 leading to problems.
