That is soooo cool 😎 other than the long startup time. Cool thing to have until it fails

if you want to do a “workout” while changing tires I would suggest a duct bill hammer.

The trans is run off the 12v system.

Bring another Duce with a tow bar. 👍

No. I did check for tightness originally and there were very tight. I’m sure it will pop back up. I thought it might have been because the box was loose with the mounting bolts ? It should have been grounded threw the wire harness.

I’m sure you’re right. I just haven’t found found it yet. Being sick for a week and now raining doesn’t help the search. I’m sure it will pop back up , I’m hoping it won’t lead to a total meltdown.

Typical de mill. Die grinder to remove. But why cut them ? The radio ? They left the other end in the truck. Like cutting off the antenna mounts and fording valve parts.

Here’s a little update. It’s good and not figured out. After cleaning up all the electrical and replacing the batts , nothing changed. After connecting everything back up the lights and everything would come on but as soon as I turned on the Ing. everything would die. So I re pulled the batts...

Oh it should be fine….. little contact cleaner and a wire brush. Should clean up fine 🤷🏽

Same issue I am having. Haven’t found the issue as of yet.

It’s all just bad news 😣 , cleaned all the electrical and replace the batts. Lights are happy but as soon as I turned on the ing. switch , I can gear the fart box relay click than the wait light comes on for 1/2 second and everything goes dead. So hopefully tomorrow I can pull the box and look...

A little follow up. So far pulled all wires in the battery box and cleaned. I don’t know what the MC has with silicon but what a mess. Nothing looked bad but cleaned it all up. Found the front battery is really weak , put it on a rejuvenating charger and gonna wait to see if it comes around.

I think my control box died. Ran it on Friday and jumped my new Mep. Went to mone it tonight and dead , no lights - nothing. Jumped it with the Mep and still nothing. Got 28v and a good ground but not even the lights work. Looked around for a cb under the dash but it’s a little cold and dark...

I recently got a Mep -802a and without reading this post I would have passed on this gen set. Has a nice viberation , same “blow by” out the dipstick. And yes the lifting shackles make a ton of noise. Now I just need to replace the temp gauge and batts. Making a plug/harness to connect to my...

Thanks. That’s all great advice. I figured if it wasn’t leaking something it ran out. 🤣 I’ll be looking at it tomorrow , load test is going to be a large electric heater.
