Who out there knows where I can can a new door for my control box where all the gauges are for my MEP-803a?
The one i just bought in auction is missing it.
Thanks
These are 12 wire gen heads sewerzuk has a Youtube video showing how to rewire a 004a for low zig zag to get 240 out of it. The 804 should be the same. The advantage I found with the 804 over the 803 is surge capability for large compressors and such and you can load down the 3rd leg with a few...
I'm an aviation mechanic now working with prototype automotive but my roots stem from gravel trains and heavy maintenance. So I'll take the chance of a breakdown after a good walk around. My insurance lady already said she's insured one of these before and has a plan set up for me if I get one.
Thanks Johnny. So my question now is if I buy one can I sign the application form for the title and drive it home or is the process for actually getting the title and being legally able to drive it a lengthy one and I'd have to get it low boyed outta there?
Can someone direct me to a post or tell me from govplanet do the trucks come with on road titles or is there some lupole everyone uses. Do I need a cdl to drive them if I'm not for hire?
I hooked up my mep-802a and my Coleman 5kw to my oscilloscope. this is a good representation of the difference between quality and big box store cheep power
And the clean wave is while powering my whole house including 3.5 ton ac. I snagged these photos off my YouTube video I put on CL to help...
Am I allowed to post YouTube videos on here if its something for sale by owner not an auction? I took a video of an mep-802a on the oscilloscope vs a generic 5kw gas generator. It's a lot bigger of a difference then I thought. If you don't watch the last 10 seconds of it you wouldn't even know...
Thanks daybreak i pulled that old line off today and replaced with fuel rated 4.8mm rubber line. its not as tight as the original but nothing a few hose clamps didn't fix. Thanks again. I had read a forum about the return line and a lot of people seamed to have difficulties finding line so it...
I'll check that tomorrow for sure. Is there a quick fix for that like just rubber fuel hose and a few hose clamps? why would it do it intermittently tho? I was ramping up and down on the load with my adjustable heat gun. is it because when it cycles rpm it varies the return pressure to the point...
Im doing load tests on my new gen. Runs great even starts my 3 ton ac. I can load it up with heat guns and heating elements up to 7500 watts continuously but every 45 mins or so I see a puff of smoke come out of the rad air ouet on top. I open the side door and it looks like from the throttle...
Been looking on here I see a lot of low sulfur vs trucks and equipment but not mep generators. I have an mep-802a and an Mep-002a just was asked the question by a friend how's those old diesels working on the low sulfur fuel. Any opinions on that? Thanks
How can you tell if it is tier2 Rebuild? doesn't the engine have a tag on it with the Rebuild date? The one I just got to me looks barely used very little corrosion On the manifold and none on the Gen head. That's mainly what I look for when purchasing one of these is corrosion. Lots of...
The one I got is a 2006 the average might have been 15 but a lot where less then 10 years old. I just bought two more from lockbourne OH buth have under 100 hrs. one for a friend and one for myself to hopefully sell and put the money back twords the others I've bought. Ha-ha
