Picked up an MEP-002A and it has foamy/milky oil on the dipstick.
A test run showed it to start/run fine but the dipstick oil
doesn't look good.
I'll drain the oil but any thoughts? Oil pressure on the gauge
was about 50 PSI.
thanks!
I made it up to Salina Saturday and had a chance to see Glen.
As always he was a mite busy, but he took some time out of his
day to chit chat and even bought the pizza.
The yard is packed with M105 trailers and a 5 ton truck or two.
Good golly Miss Molly there are a lot of parts up there!
A...
Glen,
I hope you enjoyed your Easter!
Look forward to coming up!
I will be up this week, and will check with Josh.
I bought him a big air compressor like mine, but his has that 4 cylinder
government 4A032 engine on it. I lugged it home and we played
with it for a bit and it fired right up and...
I would have liked to have been up too today. Beautiful Kansas day!!
I managed to get a new pintle mount made for my
F150 so a M101 will sit properly. And I have a crank
landing gear
THANKS GLEN
ready to go on.
Been busy for me at work, but look look forward to getting back up there!
Seeing as Glen mentioned it, here's the famous truck.
Seemed pretty stable to me......:shock:
With all those 11.00x20 tires coming in I think I am going to invest in
another 3/4 inch impact gun. That way Josh and I can race..........
And a big hearty THANK YOU to Glen!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Found a couple more pics
One is of my friend Josh slacking off when he should be pulling parts
:)
The other is him cutting a frozen pin off to liberate that crank landing gear.
A friend and I went up a couple days ago to pull parts for Glen. Without a doubt he has a trailer or two there. It was a beautiful day and perfect for pulling parts. We pulled a bit of this and that.
My big score was stumbling across a crank landing gear for a M101!!
I have been looking for...
that's really sad that people can't listen, follow the rules or not steal..........someone has always gotta frak things up for everyone.
What is so hard about
Don't take tires from the good trailers?
or
Don't steal parts?
frakkers..............
Would I be correct in reasoning that the battery charging voltage regulator is likely the culprit?
I will have him test this. If this is bad is there a way to source this part?
With the slave cable plugged in it is over 24 volts.........as to be expected.
Unplug the slave and it dies abruptly.
My MEP16B runs without a battery....
Question:
A friend has a MEP 701A (MEP 16B) 3kw diesel gen set with the Onan engine.
Battery in it reads about 4 volts.
Putting a slave cable to it, it starts right up and runs very nicely.
However, it dies as soon as you disconnect the slave cable. I did not see anything in
the manual for...
Yes, I need to bring my Nikon up and shoot some photography. I have kicked myself twice about it.
I went up again Saturday and pulled tires for Glen. I didn't get as many pulled off for him as I'd like, but I left a stack of 14........maybe that will help a bit.
I am from away, so am still...
Bummmmmmmmmmmmmmer.........
man, and I got all excited about this.
$1,700 is almost what I paid for my truck. Reckon that is going to be
a mite hard for most CUCV owners to swallow...........
Good luck with that........
