Admin can close this thread. I'm done with this gen set. At least it will serve as a good parts machine. Heated the cast iron red hot and would not budge.

I'm going to break out the acetylene latter on and see if I can get them to budge. If they come out I will continue on with it. Luckily I only paid $200 for generator and trailer and put in $200 into a pump. I already am using the trailer as a water buffalo.

This one needs at minimum new fuel tank injection pump glow plugs rubber intake hoses batteries and hold downs. I could have bought a new motor for $550

The truck will sit perfect in my opinion. Lots of people add 2" lift springs to level out the truck and get rid of the rake. Add some nice 285 or 305 tires and you will have a cool looking truck.

Both glowplugs snapped at the head. I may give up on this unit. It's been nothing but problems.

I made a cool disconnect and put it right next to my slave connector. Looks factory

As long as I have my mep003a I'm fine.

i have one of those to. No thanks. This stupid genset is actually more reliable..

Let's say I wanted to run some sensitive equipment that needed 110 like a tv or computer. Would I run the generator at the 110v setting or the 220v and only run one leg?

Here we go ^^^^^ buy his new regulators

They say not to run your generator with out batteries, so that would be the same thing. They sell updated regulators these days that are much better.

Mep002a/3 are much better

I can already tell this will not end up well. I'm pretty sure the heads are going to snap right at the cylinder head. Can I heat up the head a little with a torch to expand and loosen it up?

You need to add a jumper to get 240/120 split. If you are not already aware of it.

I absolutly hate these gensets. Mep-016x's

That's why I thought something was wrong because you don't get 60v in commercial power.

This is exactly what I came up with today. Does my wiring look right?

I only want to talk about 120v configuration Is the neutral and ground tied together? If so I'm getting correct voltage.

I will make a diagram with all my voltages later on today.

Where is the neutral on these generators? 120v only
