Hello, we are working on a nitrogen generator that originally was labeled to use that red PRF-83282 hydraulic fluid and we are looking for a more affordable alternative. Since we are using the machine for industrial purposes and not near any aircraft we were hoping to find a commercially...

We are not sure, we never purchased from there before. It appears it mainly sells vehicles so the pick-up rules are worded as such that they will only load (push vehicles onto) RGN type trailers. They also say no forklift is available, but we are interested in a large machine, not a vehicle so...

Hello, Does anybody have a contact phone number of the Springtown, TX Gov planet location? We would like to ask a loading question prior to purchasing an item. Thanks!

Thank you for the insight. I just replaced the fuel filter and it had no effect on the issue. The fuel pressure seems pretty rock solid at 120PSI which is in spec according to the TM, so I dont really know where else to look. I might just throw another nozzle in it, but otherwise do you have...

Hello, I have a Choctaw H140 that has been heating my garage for about 8 years. The unit is located inside and the exhaust is piped through the wall with about 10 feet of exhaust pipe. It worked fine for the first 5 years, but for the last three is has been driving me nuts. Its current...

We sent out the injectors to have them calibrated by Storeman. After reinstalling the injectors the one set runs exactly the same and bogs down to early. I will look into the fuel pumps now. I guess the best way to check them is to put a pressure gauge after the pumps? What pressure is...

Hello, We have a few MEP-002s that bog down with only 2-4kw when using the load bank but run perfectly fine otherwise. I have tested some that went up to 7500w. The manuals simply says to check the air filter if they have low power. Is there a thread or check list to know where to start with...

Never mind, figured it out. I opened up the gearbox and the large "pitman arm with integral lever" (giant fork thing) was broken in half!!

Hello, We have a 5 Ton dump that we have had for several years and never drove due to the steering not working correctly since we purchased it and now we need to use it. The steering works find while turning left, but turning right does not have power assist. I have listed below what we have...

So, has it been determined which one is the correct procedure? I read and reread the TM then performed the procedure and it seems to run worse than before I messed with it. BUT, I just cant imagine how a manual like that can be wrong so I am going to assume I did something wrong. I do agree...

Is there a piston or lobe that can wear down which would require them to be "re-timed" occasionally, or is being out of time generally technician error?

I have ony run it for 20-30 min at 75% load a few times, and only a few minutes with the 6000W heater. I will try a good 3 hour test run this weekend so I dont bother the neighbors too much after work. That would be great if it was that simple, I just have a suspicion there is something wrong...

Hello, I stumbled upon this forum a while back and finally had to sign up, there is so much great information here! We have been buying, selling and using surplus equipment for many years. We have a few MEP-002As laying around and I finally wanted to set one up at my house for back-up power...
