I am trying to replace my oil filter housing on my MEP-003, and to get it off, I have to disconnect the oil cooler lines inside the blower housing. I removed all the obvious bolts around the perimeter of the housing, and tried to pull it off. It seems like it's not wanting to come off around the...

When I stopped watching those generators, the 002 labeled as a 003 was at $2500. That's insane! Someone's going to get a dissapointment when they go to pick it up. I was hoping to get a 002 out of the batch, but didn't win any.

It seems like the new batch of trucks aren't requiring EUCs either, unless it's a typo several times...

Ditto. I think those are probably self-tapping screws that held the softtop snaps on.

Should be as simple as plug it into the device that needs to be slaved, then plug it into the vehicle you're slaving off of. It's a set of jumper cables, just made easy.

Speddmon, that's the box I'm talking about. So, can I take a 003 output box and put it on a 002 and have it work?

Are the MEP-002 and MEP-003 A/C Output Control boxes the same? I don't have my laptop with me and the TMs on jatonka's website doesn't seem to have the parts breakdown TMs. Seems like they would be considering the main difference between the 2 models are the engine and generator head. If...

There is a temperature switch inline with the starting circuit I believe. It's located in the shutter housing. Perhaps the machine got too hot because the shutters did not open and kept it from restarting until it cooled sufficiently.

I took a closer look at the oil filter assembly today and noticed that the oil filter housing is bolted onto the block, and can be replaced. Now, to find a new oil filter housing, the associated T fitting, and the injector line, and the injector return line, and a wiring harness, and battery...

I've been in contact with him. Planning on going to get everything this weekend.

If there's one in the stack, it's yours.

I'll see what I need and can spare once I get it all.

I'll buy the pile whole. I need a bunch of parts for my 003 including injector lines, wiring harness, and quite possibly the whole engine block. I'll PM you.

As soon as I saw your first pic, everything fell into place. I was right in my guess that the T fitting hooked up to the filter housing. Hopefully once I pull the oil filter I can replace the brass connection going between the filter base and T, otherwise I have a nice 1200lb paperweight. And...

The oil line is up between the IP and the oil filter housing. I would think it goes to the oil filter, but I don't see anything that's not connected to the oil filter housing.

Hopefully these help illustrate the issue from a wider view.

I am missing some part on the oil system of my MEP-003, but I have no idea what it is. It appears that there's a pair of oil lines that come from the top of the heads and comes down to between the IP and the oil filter, where it ends in a T fitting. The oil pressure gauge was remoted by the...

Sounds like there's a safety interlock that's keeping it from running. Oil pressure perhaps?

Orren, from what I have read, disconnecting batteries while the generator is running causes damage to the electronics because the alternator can not regulate the voltage fast enough. This causes a voltage spike like you saw on the meter and cooks the electronics.
