    MEP-802A and MEP-803A Wire diagrams

    We can get you smart on the NSN and Part number. The D1 appendix is just for making the few things that the army did not want to keep on hand. Just what are you wanting to find? Wire size you know. Get some wire and the end connectors, and fab it up. its not hard.

    MEP-002A Engine Stop Solenoid

    The OEM part was normally a very dependable part. Take the old OEM solenoid and bench test it. Hook 24 volts up to it. It still moves in and out?

    New to me MEP-803A with a charred ground

    Take the top off. Then you will see into the space behind the control panel. Take some pictures. In the other thread, (and you are not suposed to post more then one thread talking about the same problem) you said the wire "runs from the ground lug on the power panel and the engine frame". The...

    Anyone know what this is?

    We had 200 KW and a 100 KW motor converter sets, (General Dynamics) on our hawk site. 220/416 volt, 50 hertz to 416 three phase, 400 hertz. Both of them slept 4 people across. Kinda handy in the winter, when we were locked up on site. Ear plugs and Micky Mouse head phones. Might also be a good...

    First MEP 803A, fix up help

    Not meaning to argue but on the topic of the gauges, I don't think anyone expects perfection but if the senders are out of spec per the TM's then they will only get more and more off over time I see no harm in replacing them like the TM states to do when they are out of spec given they are like...

    First MEP 803A, fix up help

    People, you are making a mountain out of a mole hill. I tested the Frequency transducer and it is way out of spec. Instead of 100uA (60Hz) and 200uA (65Hz), it is reading 297uA and 417uA in my test. Can those be repaired? NO. My Coolant Gauge is kinda ok? On the low test (117-143 ohms), it...

    MEP 803A Fix-up Thread

    I dont think you understand what AOAP (Army Oil Analyses Program, or any oil analyses test) would tell you about Who knows what was in that crankcase when you got it. Could have had some water or diesel in it from who knows what gomer did. Although I am just an old Gomer, I will try and...

    Mobile air compressor g-311-pc...nsn4310008438885

    I hated all these type engines, until, THANK YOU LORD, the electronic ignition came out. Then they became one of the most dependable gas engine gen sets.

    RG-31 Truck-lite kit

    We use these cable holders, but only in an enclosure. Never outside. We tried for several years, and never found any adhesive that really worked well. We use a number of clip systems, but at the end of the day, they tend to comoe off easy. On a truck like yours, we would weld conduit holders on...

    If you look hard, you will find the parts you need. The engine is the little brother to several bigger engines, and they all use a lot of parts in common.

    Picking up a Bridge Erection Boat on Cradle

    Its been, 29 years ago this month, that I was in WOC school in FLW. I think the instructor told us the boat, without cradle was 8,900-9,000 Lbs. But I sure would not bet on that figure.
