    What kind of batteries? How many volts in each one separately?

    Mep-002a gets 240 at the lugs, but control box gauge says 120.

    Happens to everyone. When I was a contractor, I got a call about a gen set. Wont start. So the next morning I got in the car at 05:00 and drove about 415 klicks to a unit up North. A whole crew of people met me at the gate. Mechanics, Motor Sgt. CWO. and a Plt. Leader. And they all explained...

    MEP 805A Fuel / Start Problems - Repair Service in North East Texas???

    The No fuel fault will not allow you to try and start the gen set. Pull out the fuel tank float assembly. See if the floats are stuck, are there, not damaged. As long as that signal goes to the Fault indicator, it wont start. Have you seen this gen set run right? Is it new to you? Have you down...

    I was going to suggest a "Parts Wanted" thread. But all's well, that ends well.

    MEP Drawing restoration

    One of the most crazy, and that's saying something, but one of the most crazy guys I ever served with, was a door gunner for a tour in the Vietnam sunshine. Never a dull moment when he was awake.

    MEP-803A Auxiliary Fuel Tank Size and Fuel

    Correct. The dye helps the "Do Right Boys" find people who use non taxed fuel in vehicles. Over here, "you in a heap a trouble boy", if you get caught. You might want to spend a little time perusing the operators TM.

    My 1st "Non U.S." MV post!

    Here is an interesting fact. In 1973 when I got here in Germany, there were still lots of old trucks on the road. It did not take long to notice that almost all the large German trucks, all had rings just like the ring on the Saurer 2DM truck. They also had, on the battery box, the old style...

    MEP-803A Auxiliary Fuel Tank Size and Fuel

    There is a plate on the side of the generator that lists the fuels the Army uses. Is DF2 listed there?

    MEP803a Auxiliary Fuel Operation

    @Mweiss You are cross threading. Please stick to your established thread for this problem.

    My thought is that equalizing pressure in the injectors helps make combustion very close in each cylinder thereby improving the operation of the motor. I agree. If it was a race car, they would do it.

    Just Purchased my first MEP803A!

    What we liked to use for an Aux, fuel tank was a fuel tank from a 5 Ton, (or larger) truck. We mounted wheels under it to make it easy to move. Something like this. But any kind is good. They are made to hold fuel and the holes in the tank you need foe plumbing are all ready there. This was...

    Why can't I post pictures on my ad and it tells my my picture's are to big

    You are also going to have to upgrade your membership, to post in the vehicle for sale thread. Thats why your thread in RV Camper Conversions was deleted. Its not IAW Forum rules to sell things in open threads, and to post a For Sale Thread, you need to up grade your membership.

    How did you test these Injectors? Have you ever disassembled them and soaked them in a cleaning fluid? That could improve the pressure. Also, I moved this thread to the Generator Forum, where it should have been all this time.

    Unit designation for 1986 M1008 CUCV

    14BDE-1/142 MP HQ 6 I think this might be close. You should do some looking in the ranks of former soldiers from the unit. You can not remember what your bumper markings looked like?
