    Typical water can. Typical fuel can And the one everyone wants to find. I have seen 2 in a barn a few years ago. The SS fuel can.

    Take a close look at the fuel cans. That is a typical German/European lock. So it might have started its life over here. There are still LOTS of fuel cans left over from WW2 here. If they are from Germany, there is a chance that you might get lucky. They look old enough.

    Valence's M116A3 Mounted MEP-803A (10kw generator)

    There are a few things that can pop this fuse. 1. A volt regulator going bad. 2. Holding the S1 up for LONG time periods. By that, I mean 1-2 Min. Why would someone do that? Troubleshooting comes to mind. Dont worry about it. If it happens again, you might talk to Kurt about a new VR...

    One of my brother CWO's spent a year in the 588th Combat Engineers. No, they did not have an easy time. But, like the typical Engineer, he adapted, and overcame.

    EMP Proofing HMMWV

    I’ve literally been hearing of this EMP crap for over 25yrs from people, as I’ve told anyone who cares….you got bigger issues if there is a directed EMP strike, and it ain’t your hmmwv you should be thinking about. 27yrs of CBRN crap and we really didn’t touch much on EMP, now…Chem, Bio and...

    MEP003A Governor Linkage

    MSGJD, We passed in the night. Tankers were always interesting. It was the winter of 1973, we were going on REFORGER. That stands for Return of Forces Germany. This was the largest Maneuver the military ever conducted, and it happened about every year for a long time here. I was a...

    Its cold outside lets talk Heaters, H81, H82, H83, etc.

    No matter what happened, the disappearance of facial hair is a common part of the story. Seen it with gas. Seen it with diesel/denatured alcohol mix. Seen it with gasoline. Yes, something that will stay in your memories, long after dementia has taken everything else.

    Valence's M116A3 Mounted MEP-803A (10kw generator)

    If you only have 26 VDC at the 120 volt outlet, the main generator is not lighting off. What you are reading is exciter voltage. Pull that fat fuse out shown here next to the Volt reg. Test the fuse with your multimeter. Ohms test. You should get continuity.

    The old MEP-002A, on through to the MEP-007A were the best gen sets I ever worked on. KISS.

    Mep-003a not producing power

    Probably, the next step it to check the CT's. The current transformers. And I assume you have checked the box out good. Its a mouse hotel, and they often turn it into a flop house. CVT1 and CT1 could be bad, and you can test them. The below test procedure is in the -34 TM, page 6.15. You need a...

    MEP16-D Wont Start

    OK, this is the Diesel up grade set. This probably a fuel problem. You have the AUX position for the fuel selector. And have fuel hooked to the 3 way valve. When you loosen the line to the injector and pull it over, is there any fuel coming out?
