    New LMTV owner

    I was on another forum and they suggested checking if i had a 4 prong relay instead of a 5 in K8 in fact i did. so i changed that out and now i have head lights but cant change to brights and still no dash lights. Also interesting is that k78 says its for lights. if i pull the fuse the whole...

    Choosing a Generator

    The light plant really does not have much insulation. Its a fiberglass shell that opens up. The insulation on the Welder on the other hand is more substantial. Also an advantage to the Light plant is Mine has a 42 gallon tank, Welder has a 28 gallon tank. so separate fuel storage would not...

    Choosing a Generator

    so I have a Multiquip 10kw power 300amp generator that uses a 3600rpm Kubota Engine. 4300 hrs and its quiet. Also i currently have a former rental Light plant with 5100 hrs with a Kubota and once again its quiet. So do not compare a screaming 3600 rpm gas engine to a diesel. Two very different...

    What have you done WITH your FMTV ( trips, Rescues etc) NOT: fixes, updates etc

    802 a fuel pump

    Another 802a lives thanks to a fuel pump from Light in the Dark. it also needed 2 new batteries and an air filter. Load banked it for an hour with (4) 1500 watt heaters, the wet stacking cleared. just a little haze at that load. Thanks for all the responses.

    OH No Luck in Ohio

    State Farm Insured my LMTV as a Commercial Policy, Liability only due to the unknown cost of replacement parts. because i am an existing customer is the only reason they would write a policy. I had to state the use of the truck as home improvement/Maintenance and it is a commercial recreational...

    802 a fuel pump

    After stumbling through past threads am i correct in the Airtex 8135 being a replacement for the main pump? the Facet pump is a little more pricey but is available, but i like lower price better.

    MEP-8xx wet stack info

    I understand all the issues that can arise with these. I am prepared if i have to replace well nuts and fuel lines or fuel tank floats. Was just surprised how much wet stacking from that few of hours. Also the 100 hour service had been performed but the air filter looks terrible. I will not...

    MEP-8xx wet stack info

    Old thread but just bought an 802a from GovPlanet with 119 hours non reset unit and man this must never have had a load on it. headed out tomorrow for batteries and get it fired up. I have 6kw of space heaters to work it. Should be an interesting smoke show.

    MEP1040 warning code

    The panel where the radiator flow tank is has a circuit disconnect just inside the hinge of the door. Have you bought this machine yet? or read the TM's.

    MEP1040 warning code

    The faults will stay on until you clear them. So say you change voltage when it is in the off position, when you turn the set on it will show a warning that the voltage setting was changed. Hit the clear fault button and good to go

    MEP1040 warning code

    I shut my disconnect off in the machine so the screen does not draw power and stay on after shutting off the Gen Set.
