Hi folks, I picked up a MEP 016c genset some time ago. I've started tinkering around with it again (after putting it's repair on the back burner for a while) and have discovered that I'm getting about 28 ohms when measuring resistance across exciter leads #20 and #21. The tech manual is calling...

Does anyone know off hand what makes a good replacement for a bad Diode CR6 on the voltage regulator of a MEP016c?

Hi Diesel, that 30 ohm 300 watt resistor arrived in the mail yesturday... I'm waiting on a few more components. Is it ok that while the TM is calling for 120 watt resistor the new one is 300 watts ?

Hi Folks, I have a few questions relating to testing of the MEP-016 class of gensets while following along the technical manual I've discovered (so far) that I have a bad Q1 transistor and a bad CR6 diode. The next step according to the tech manual is to gather together a few tools (which is...

Thanks DieselAddict just finished ordering... I was getting confused over the 120 watt aspect and couldn't find any. Will it be ok for me to pull the Rheostat on the MEP-016c dashboard to use while bench testing the voltage regulator or is that another thing I need to order?

Hope you don't mind if I go sliglhtly go off topic and ask if anyone has a cheap source for a 30 ohm 120 watt resistor for the purpose of testing my voltage regulator on a mep-016c? So far I've found that transistor Q1 and Diode CR6 are bad. While following along the diagnostic manuals there...

I tinker around a little bit with small engines and I have to say when I brought the generator home and got a closer look at the engine I was blown away with the detail and spare no expense mind set that went in to these little buggers. What are you asking on the motors ?

Hi folks I recently had a chance to pick up the above named genset from an old timer who said it ran at one time years ago. I took it home pulled the carb, cleaned up the goo, bypassed the lower mounted tank / fuel lines/ filters /sediment bowls / fuel pump etc and mounted a plastic tank to the...
