    As far as a pigtail for connection, you'll most likely have to make one yourself or find someone who can make it.

    MEP-802A - can this thing function with a 60' exhaust run?

    I'm sure you did already, but recommend using quality anti-seize on the pipe threads. Months/Years of engine exhaust heat and then sitting idle in a barn will make that a bear to remove at a later date.

    M105A2 trailer build/ conversion

    Yea That’s a bit of an upgrade of a truck. You could’ve kept the 105 with that beast.

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    What did you do to your trailer today.

    Used the M101A2 to haul some gravel. This trailer has the heavy spring kit installed. Had 1.6 ton of gravel in it and it still wasn’t touching the bump stops. Lousy pic and trailers almost empty when taken, but it did much better than expected over rough roads. Surge brakes worked great and...

    M105A2 trailer build/ conversion

    The M105A2 is a big, heavy trailer. Add no brakes and a heavy generator and you have a very bad day waiting to happen. Very smart move realizing it was too much for your truck and getting rid of it. You definitely scored with the solid wheels on the new trailer. A lot of shops will not...

    M105A2 trailer build/ conversion

    That is much better and also has the solid steel wheels. No lock ring to deal with. What are your plans for the generator? That's a lot of generator for single home use.

    7MC-2A & MC-2A (USAF) Towable Diesel Air Compressors

    MC-2A Adjusted engine RPM and torqued down the nut. Then I safety wired it for security. Installed two new air filters. One for engine and other is for compressor. (Ordered Wix part number and these were in Wix boxes) Not sure what went in hole by rpm adjustment knob. The manuals do not...

    7MC-2A & MC-2A (USAF) Towable Diesel Air Compressors

    MC-2A Installed parts yesterday and it was interesting. How this broke is a mystery. Looks like it ran quite a bit afterwards When installing new screw, discovered that the governor arm was bent. It would not line up properly. Pair of pliers fixed that. Actually I think I bent it when I...

    MEP-802A - can this thing function with a 60' exhaust run?

    Don’t forget to mouse-proof your generator. Mice love barns and can cause serious damage to wiring, etc Lots of threads on how to keep them out.

    MEP-803A whole house standby generator

    That's also the cleanest fabrication shop I've seen. You could make up several sets of the stencils and sell them in the classifieds.

    MEP-803A whole house standby generator

    Nicely done!! That color looks great and the Stenciling is a very nice touch. That’s one of the best looking setups I’ve seen. Where did you put the cabinet for all the spare parts you’ll need? Grin

    New parts FINALLY arrived. A new Governor adjustment screw and crankcase breather gasket. Still no service manuals …….so does anyone have the procedure on how to adjust it? Or pictures? Installing will be easy but I don’t know how far to screw the screw in to the pump rack. The other unit is...
