    What all MEP models do members have?

    I have a 1974 MEP-006A w/ (when I got it) 7 hours. 6-cylinder turbo-diesel 3500 series Allis-Chamber engine. Runs like a top!

    MEP-006A Voltage Questions

    Update: Generator is working flawlessly at the de-construction site. Running various electric motors, lighting, transformers, etc. I scored a 30kW heater and a 10kW heater (480V) so I use those as load banks periodically if the load is not enough to make the generator work a little hard. FYI...

    MEP-006A Voltage Questions

    I have a couple questions regarding a new-to-me MEP006. 1) I see the voltage selection card on the left side of the set, however I am not sure how you are supposed to 'move' this...does it slide? Do I remove all the nuts and then bolt it all back on at the next point up? I see the arrows, but...

    Fort Lewis, WA Winnings Security

    Good news...unit was in-tact and untouched! Even still had the little bakelite/plastic wrench in there for tightening down the AC output lugs. I did a quick inspection before signing for it...and 4 hours later had it running and generating power. Ft. Lewis DRMO was looking pretty clean.

    Fort Lewis, WA Winnings Security

    Hey all, I was just wondering, for my MEP-006A that is taking its sweet time with paperwork processing at Battle Creek, should I expect my personally inspected complete unit to be now missing parts? I have read that at some bases units that stick around for awhile start turning into parts...

    Event 5132 (my first EUC) is still at Battle Creek...Since 4/28/2010. :-( I was hoping it wasn't going to take months to get my EUC cleared, but it's taking its time. Just waiting to get my hands on my MEP006A :-P Hope nobody has stolen parts off of it at Ft. Lewis!!

    These quick turn-arounds on EUC's would seem to indicate that as of the past week GL is flipping them fairly quickly to Battle Creek and not letting them sit on 'the pile'. Hum. 8)

    HeadWizard, how many previous EUC's have you submitted? How long did your first take (approximate year?) Glad to see it moved quickly for you!

    Submittal one day, sent to Battle Creek next day!

    I'm waiting on 5132 as well, although it appears that they submitted my EUC today (had an issue with illegible date 2010 needing revision on the paperwork?) so we'll see how long it takes. I was working with Daniel and he apologized and mentioned it has been swamped. Talked with a...
