    MEP 802A Not Closing Circuit

    Might be a good idea to test the diode and make sure it still works.

    Mep-802a aux fuel pump trips breaker?

    That looks like a capacitive level sensor.

    MEP 802A Not Closing Circuit

    Wonder if that diode is broken. They sometimes fracture from vibration.

    MEP-002A and MEP-003A recent Injection pump observations and warning

    One thing to do if you don't have any commercial fuel additive on hand is to add about an ounce of 2-stroke oil per gallon of fuel.

    Mandatory Maintenance

    It’s supposed to be 3.5mm. The local auto parts store has 3mm and 4mm of the normal hose. I’m going to get a piece of both sizes and see what works best.

    Mandatory Maintenance

    This is why replacing the fuel lines on a machine from auction is NOT OPTIONAL! These machines are zero time and look absolutely brand new. Got to love the overspray on the engine paint. They painted EVERYTHING.

    The first one has been picked up by a forum member. The wife seemed happy. I just might survive this yet. :D

    Have you figured out if its the low fuel alarm that is shutting it down?

    My wife is going to kill me... :D

    Yea, she found them. I have a photo of the look on her face when she saw them but I'll not push my luck by making that public. On the plus side, I've sold a couple of them already so I MAY be out of immediate danger. We shall see. Having to be at the client site in Chicago this week has...

    Aftermarket MEP-803 alternators

    These alternators have a number of versions that are common across a lot of different pieces of equipment. Something like this should be compatible. https://store.alternatorparts.com/prestolite-inboard-marine-alternators.aspx

    My wife is going to kill me... :D

    I'm lucky she doesn't get home form work for another hour or so. Might have time to hide them somewhere.

    about 5kw 60hz mep802A generator

    The oil pressure gauge will not shut the unit down. The low oil pressure switch will. You should have a light on the alarm panel indicating why the unit shut down. Without knowing why the unit is shutdown you are casting a wide net over what could be going wrong. We need to narrow it down some...

    My wife is going to kill me... :D

    Load Bank

    The one I have is a Essex A427. It is good for single and 3 phase up to 33kw. I use it a lot more than I expected to. If you can't find a "real" load bank you can go the space heater route. If you do a quick search here on the forum you'll see members talking about using electric...
