    MEP1040 fuel tank sender?

    The only part bad on my 1040 was the fuel level sensor. I had read there was a recall on the original part and a replacement was issued. I could not source the new part anywhere so I found the original on fleebay and its been working fine for more than a year. Original Fuel sending unit part...

    Mep 806a is making me look bad

    So I got this 806a off auction and its kicking my arse. I know not to trust meters but its probably right at 50 hours since i does not run right. Let me explain. After adjusting the governor, since it had a temperamental actuator, i got her to run steady and produce power. After a few seconds of...

    Looks like mje800G transistors are getting hard to find. Mauser says they are in end of life. Any substitutes known?

    803a fuel pump issues

    If I recall, i took the pump out and made sure it was nice and loose. Put it back together and made sure the it was correctly seated with the rack springing back into place when the shutoff lever was moved. I cranked till fuel started coming out and it worked. If the rack seems sluggish, you...

    Yet another MEP805B issue I need advice on

    Does the I/O module show the heartbeat light flashing? Do the actuator and speed sensor lights flash or light on?

    MEP-803a. Diesel sub-tank.

    Absolutely...but at todays costs it can get expensive. Plus, I doubt id be able to get the same grade quality material for the long haul. It also looks tacticool and that makes for good conversation.

    MEP-803a. Diesel sub-tank.

    Ok. Looks like a small tank in the front only. I thought the whole base was a tank so its not worth it to me. I wanted to put my 1040 on top and slide it into my shed.

    MEP-803a. Diesel sub-tank.

    So im looking for a subtank for my 803a and found this pic. Does anyone if this is actually a subtank, how many gallons it holds or perhaps a model number to get some specs on it.

    DN4M pistons

    Funny, i actually have same setup. My gantry crane with a hoist makes it a breeze. The pallet jack helps to slide. Another way would be an engine hoist. Either way its a 2 man job to avoid damaging the chasis and enclosure.

    DN4M pistons

    I had to swap engines today. I must say that installing the engine with the genhead on and sliding it in is by far easier than the old method of seperating the genhead from the engine while still bolted to the chasis. Luckily i had this one that came from gp auction in crate that was good. The...

    Mep 007b alternator issue

    Howdy folks. Im having issues with the alternator on a 007b. Its the same used in 006a and 005a. It was not outputting any power so I had it rebuilt in a local shop. Reinstalled and no dice.
