    mep-003a first power run and concerns

    thats about how mine were. i got em back and it was a night and day difference. the power it had when i got them back was unbelievable. i can peg my gauge at over 135% and it doesnt even phase the engine. before it would smoke and start to stall at 85-90%.

    DJE YOU Won't believe where I found parts

    i went to my napa here and check just for the **** of it. i had to give the guy 2 days so he could dig. he could not get champion and he cross referenced the specs with all other brands and found nothing. since wellmen/dieselrx stopped making them seems like the ch42 is it. if im not mistaken...

    mep 002a will not start with a warm engine

    just click the link below and it will take you to the classified ad for the linkage ends. this is not for the steel ball but for the nylon plastic end. i dont think your steel ball is worn. the plastic end wont wear that out.

    mep-003a first power run and concerns

    definitely remove all 4 of them and have them gone through. i thought mine was running great too until jerry did them. when i got them back it was a totally different generator. there are 3 gaskets per injector you will need when you put them back in.

    MEP-002a / 003a glow plug compression adapter?

    isaac, im not sure what your compression tester is like but i went on the big auction site and typed in "7/16 20 adapter" and tons of fittings popped up. mostly going from 7/16-20 to a flare. maybe your hose on your tester could have a 3 or 4an fitting put on it.....might be easier than making...

    MEP-002a / 003a glow plug compression adapter?

    it was njtoolnut but i dont think he is here anymore. your prob better off getting a 7/16 bolt and drilling the center out and making something up yourself. if you do find a source let us know. that thread size seems to be very uncommon.

    Power Cable Question

    #6 is more than enough for a short run from an 003. no you cant have too big a conductor. the #2 will work fine also. decisions decisions

    MEP-003a while the shroud is off?

    how is the compression? if compression is low but not extremely low then the engine will fire off on the other cylinders and as the eng warms up a little the low cyl will eventually have enough heat to fire off and start kicking in. you can get new nozzles for the injectors if they are a bit...

    New Member/Western North Carolina RE: MEP 003A

    well if something was goin on the last time you ran it and you were slowly starting to score the cylinders then you shut it down and now its extremely hard to start. just yank the heads and see whats goin on. its very easy to do.

    MEP 003 Need Help.. Fuel Not Priming

    as stated, you should check or remove the capacitors. the pumps also pickup their ground though the bracket and then the frame. be sure all that stuff has a good ground / continuity back to the batteries. there should be a negative cable from the batteries going to the ground stud under the...
