    MEP-002 injector pump issue

    I found the issue - the cam shaft sheared between the injector lobe and the injector timing gear. I can't believe it sheared with 6 hours on it, or that it was able to run like that. Is this an interference engine ? If not I might try and slide a new cam in. Is it possible to put a new cam in...

    MEP-002 injector pump issue

    The genset had a new Melton engine put in 10/2006, do you think it's possible that the cam is bad ? That's the only thing I can think of. I'd hate to tear the whole engine down and have it be something else. Any thoughts ? Thanks, Ant

    MEP-002 injector pump issue

    I have a MEP-002 with 12 hours on it. I removed the tank and flushed it, changed the fuel filters and cleaned the strainer and added Diesel 911 for good measure.

    Just picked up a M-548A1

    There was nothing anywhere saying they were demil - they are sending me a form 97 for it. I don't think I have seen any demil items on GSA's site. ant

    Just picked up a M-548A1

    I spoke with the person responsible for listing them and asked about the other two. He said that they were already sold to a state agency back in January but they hadn't picked them up yet.

    It ended at $18,566, I wanted to keep it under 20k. The 2 pics they had on the listing are all I have for now, but I will take many more !

    Just picked up a M-548A1

    It did get expensive but a friend and I are talking about possibly removing the tank and putting troop seats in it and offering rides on the beach from the boardwalk in Wildwood,New Jersey. Not fully set up at this point but we are working on the details. Driving it must have been a blast. Did...

    Just picked up a M-548A1

    I am not sure which one it is - didn't notice that they weren't the same vehicle. I spoke to the contact person and was told that it ran well but winch doesn't work. He said he would try to get additional pics but never did. Thanks for the link.

    Just picked up a M-548A1

    Just picked up a M-548A1 from the Maine forestry service. I spoke with them and they claim it runs well. Now I am in the process of arranging transport. Does anyone have any TM's for this or know where I can get them. Thanks, Ant
