Why don't you start a "parts wanted" Thread? It what you are supposed to do according to the forum rules. And for good reason. You get more exposure. People who deal in Take Off Parts, read Parts Wanted forums. There are many people in the forum who have parts machines and this part fits a...

A full set of files are a must. I have 5 sets. One in the basement, one on my tool wall in the garage and one in every portable tool box in the garage. But then my tool boxes are full of stuff that might not get used, but sure nice to have. When one of the apprentices was on the crapola list...

Update….after digging around on here a good bit I realize I jumped the gun on firing it up for the first time. The linkage on the side of the IP is really stiff it WILL move up and down but it takes some effort. It fires up and runs strong, in my novice (to these little diesels) opinion. I’ve...

I hear you fella’s about no governor control with the IP hot wired. The intent is to use an easily removable jumper so that if it does fire up and rev up I could remove it asap. (I have seen two gen sets of this type destroy themselves. Both had the 24 VDC removed from the IP, when everyone...

I never saw any equipment destroyed due to a generator power surge.

I looked in the TM and did not find it, so ask the manufacturer.

Have you looked in the TM? Outside the generator is easy.

I guess I must have an older style A2 axle? No such thing. And if there was, the UOC, Usable On Code would tell you that. It would list both studs and give you the right info.

You can remove this screen, put the reflective tape on one of the main gen vanes and shoot through the screen. But Chainbreakers way is the most simple way to do it.

Buy one of these, and you will never, ever, have to ask this question again. Thread Pitch Gauge. Worth its weight in gold.

OK, stupid mistake. Had typed in the wrong NSN. It is TM 9-4940-566-23&P.So far its not find able. Its listed as being on EM 0157.

Is there a data plate on the thing with a TM number? I went through all the TM's I have. and none even listed the box.

From my understanding at the moment, the IP you got has two screw terminals on top of which one has a jumper to chassis. The coil on your current IP should be 24V (according to what I read, but needs to be verified) Yes, (24 VDC) Remove the jumper from the black terminal to chassis and then...

If someone had this set running without the actuator, you need to look for other "modifications". Applying 24 VDC to the IP fuel shut off solenoid will allow fuel to go to the engine. But you will not have ANY control over the engine speed other then the manual throttle cable. Be real sure you...

With a little work, you could be a good electro installer!! :D I worked with a guy who was an artiest. Both of those pictures are naked. Nothing is hooked up to them. This guy I knew, when he was done hooking up the cables, it looked like a painted picture. We say Sauber. Clean. When he was...

I looked them both over and I dont see anywhere to put a spring inside it to make it function like the original one. the body of the solenoid is a smaller diameter. You bought the wrong part. I did more troubleshooting and it appears my DC voltage regulator is charging the battery too high, i...

Schön sauber!

The Fuel consumption should be listed in the operators TM. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/manuals-for-the-mep-831a.155865/

What you really need to do is read the operators manual. All your questions would have been answered up till now if you had. Below is the link. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/manuals-for-the-mep-831a.155865/
