Some questions to help us understand the problem better.
Did the unit ever run correctly before the single phase conversion?
Did it ever run correctly after the conversion?
Is the engine laboring, like it's under full load?
Does the current go up immediately, or only when the contactor is...
Well, my curiosity got to me, and I did some further research. One of the NSN documents I found says it is a pressure output port, but not for what purpose. Possibly for a capillary to an actual pressure gage? The doc states "sensor shall have one pressure input connection, one electrical...
If it is a close fitting joint you might be able to use ABS pipe glue. I have used that on ABS ducting, and it worked great. For larger gaps I have used JB weld Plastic Bonder Structural Adhesive, and Permatex Plastic Welder. If you want a dual syringe with a gun and mixing nozzle, you can get...
Looking at the weight difference, makes me wonder if they are all nylon belted, and not steel belted. I could not find that info in the description, but I did come across this statement in their description " The intended purpose of Mud Terrain tire types is off-road use. They are not designed...
Solved that problem. Bought the wife a Blue Parrot trucker headset with bluetooth. She watches her movies on her phone, and I have not heard from her since then. :LOL:

I was not thinking that Meltons were bad. More along the lines of something happened to the original engine, to be replaced, and the replacement engine is now also missing parts.
Btw, congratulations on getting an ambulance. I have been looking at them as well, just no room for one right now.
Have you tried turning over the engine with a breaker bar and socket on the crankshaft nut? I do that on any "unknown" equipment I get. The fact that it shows low milage, but has a Melton rebuilt engine make me wonder what happened?
Be careful when driving in the new seal. I wound up knocking the seal backing spring off the seal. I must have tapped it too hard. I just saw the spring hanging on the output shaft. Talk about a pain, trying to get that spring back around the back of the seal, while the seal is installed. I...
