Yeah it should be in that thread I just linked to. Never hurts to have it in more threads though.

It would benefit you to read through this thread... it will have a lot of IP tips and documents that are useful to you: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/new-to-mep-803a-ownership-general-questions.218700/

Exactly the same stuff I use

I've always been able to soak them whole in a coffee can (with lid) submerged in https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/NCB0996 . If whole doesn't work, yeah just disassemble as others have said.

The T bar is the handle, just tighten it all the way up (standard RH threads) and you should have no leaks when you fill the radiator.

#27 is the petcock in question. The tube, T, and clip 'in excess' is the other circled mass. Beat me by a couple FSK :)

There is a petcock on the lowest radiator edge, behind the coolant tank. That extra T, and the short hose, go there. Its obscured in the photo I provided, but just look at the lowest edge closest to you when below the coolant overflow and you will find it.

The large hose (which comes out the top of the coolant overflow tank) ties into (2) other drain lines... one off the petcock on the radiator, the other off the petcock on the front of the engine block. So three hoses should dump down and out the side of the skid base, when all is said and done...

Here is how the hoses should be run. Shown is an 803, but same setup for the 802.

Will discuss by PM for certain. Though for anyone interested in facts... an 802 muffler Bolts up perfectly on both sides. Hits the coolant side safety shroud, and the roof exit hole no longer lines up perfect... But they do bolt up identically.

Im about to take the roof off an 803 in a few minutes (doing return line swap) I can compare to the 802 muffler on the shelf if you want.

Here is an exact fit unit: https://www.ebay.com/itm/265121353148

If you are needing to update filters, I would strongly suggest swapping out the stock canisters and going with @Ray70's fuel upgrades for the 00X machines. Well worth it for long term owners, and better filtering and EASIER changes! I tagged him, because Im not sure if they are up in the...

Unfortunately I only have (2) 802 mufflers, with wrap. I think the primary difference is the side below the exhaust exit... that bracket hole pattern is a little bit different on the 803s (Because it spans the cylinders differently than the 802s). The business side, that mounts to the manifold...

What does your hertz gauge register? Because its doesn't sound like its running at the right speed still... it sounds underspeed.

There is a battery wiring diagram plate on one of the doors in the machine, as well as in the TM.

https://www.steelsoldiers.com/#technical-manuals.95 Have you made sure there is no 'trash' in the tank which could be restricting flow? How about the lines from the tank all the way to the injection pump... how do they look? Any crushed, distorted, or otherwise not OK looking? How about the...

Is this a new to you machine? Have you seen it run properly before this? Are your batteries topped off? Have you changed out the water seperator and fuel filters, and cleaned the bottoms of the fuel pumps out? Do you have (2) original primary pumps, plus (1) aux pump still in place?
