Thanks, I read the procedure. Sounds much easier than replacing the Oil Pump. Do you think that this could cause 100% stop on oil flow? It was also very sudden. I happened to be monitoring the oil pressure gauge and it was stable and constant at just a little below 40 PSI for 1.25 hours of...
ARMY TM 9-6115-584-24P Parts Manual. Listed under:
KIT, GASKET. ENGINE Part #168-0135 (Page 178) There are 3 listings:
GASKET. OIL PUMP..003 IN THICK
GASKET. OIL PUMP..005 IN THICK
GASKET. OIL PUMP..009 IN THICK
They all 3 refer to Item #9 in Fig #50
There is not a separate part number for...
There is something different about the oil change. 8 years ago I installed a spin oil filter adapter. The filter I have been using the last 8 years is a Napa FIL1085 (It is a full flow filter as the TM specifies for the MEP-002A). When I did this oil change, I didn't have a FIL1085 available...
Thanks Ray, I jumped the temp switch and no start. I jumped the oil switch and it started and ran. Nothing on the Oil Pressure gauge (No bouncing or anything, just zero). I stopped it immediately in case it is the oil pump and no oil circulating. I removed the oil pressure cut-off switch...
Sorry I accidentally posted this 3 different times. That was unintentional.
MEP-002A I did and oil change. The generator ran normally for 1.25 hours and then suddenly died. While it was running I checked the oil pressure gauge several times. It was was registering just under 60 PSI consistently...
Does anyone know when the last brand new MEP-002A generators were manufactured? Are they still taking in these machines for TIER-2 reset? If not, when they they stop doing TIER-2 resets on them?
There are no shorts to the case on the stator. I used a 400mA current source and measured the voltage across each coil at 400mA. Using this method, all stator coil resistances are very close to the TM spec.
I have an MEP-002A generator. There is no Output voltage. I have tracked it down to a disintegrated rear rotor bearing that allowed the rotor to collide with the stator damaging the coils on the Rotor Exciter. The part # for the rotor assembly in the ARMY TM 9-6115-584-24P parts manual is...
