    Acquired Another MEP-802A - A Couple of Questions

    Back to blockwarden's original question. do the fuse and mov mod and run it hard. if the smoke gets worse then pull the injector meter pumps out and clean them but other wise. run it. This is not a DEF, DPF, modern pain in the rear EPA restricted Diesel Engine.

    The river has gone dry

    i bought some 531's recently because the price was right and shipping wasnt too bad since they were in Michigan, but i can't seem to get much interest in selling the ones i have 802's, 1040's, 803a Whisperwatt, Yanmar. and since Yellow freight went under shipping any from out of state is a no...

    MEP 531A Fix-up Thread

    The thing that has puzzled me is that I have one unit, as well as a Yanmar 5500 watt generator and the injector pump intake nozzle faces the other way therefore eliminating the 90 degree fitting and the curve that causes the air bubble not sure why they would not have made that change at some...

    How do you move your generator(s)?

    just got rid of my Kubota Grand L4060 to up my game to a Kubota SVL 75-2 tracked skid steer 60 inch forks, picks up an 803 on a trailer nicely. no more pucker factor.

    I guess it's a LPW2, not a DN2M...

    My first 803a that had 5 hours and was never issued 2012 model had a 400hz tag on a 60hz machine so its possible

    Fair Radio Sales in Lima OH - going out of business - FOREVER

    i drive by that place weekly and i thought they closed a long time ago seeing how run down it looks. If anyone is in need of something let me know as i work about a mile away from it. I know next to nothing about the radio stuff but would be happy to pick something up.

    AMMPs 1030 non runner repair

    The last piece that i was missing on this generator was the dust ejector on the air filter. all used ones that i have seen sell have the remains of it melted to the valve cover. This one was no exception as it was like a puddle of goo. I absolutely could not find a part number in the TM i...

    MEP-803A Digital Gauge Cluster Development

    Also the AMMPs screen does a whole lot more than just give maintenance and readings, its the brains and logic of the whole machine. Everything behind your panel on the 8xx series is in that computer box on the AMMPS machines.

    Yellow Freight Shuts Down

    I had a lot of issues with Yellow Freight but the price was worth it and for places like the GP PA warehouse that you can't get an appointment for over a month they were great because they had a trailer there that was loaded several days a week

    AMMPs 1030 non runner repair

    These are even more quiet than the whisperwatts. at least the onese i have because both of mine are 3600 rpm units when ever power is used in idle they are quiet. Now put any of the above next to a yanmar 5500 watt or an mep 531 then you have a real comparison of quiet versus loud

    AMMPs 1030 non runner repair

    my Kubota RTV 900 and Grasshopper 725d both with D902 engines are no where near as quiet as this thing kinda thought maybe it wasnt running right at first. The 1040 although still quiet is still much louder than this unit.

    AMMPs 1030 non runner repair

    So i bought this unit with only the thought that i might get a good engine and parts for sale, but as of today we have a runner. New starter and batteries are in and she fired right up. DCS faults and maintenance items have been cleared, producing power and charging batteries. This unit even...

    Unicor NF2D Light Tower/Genset

    I own 8 pieces of equipment with Kubota engines. Aluminum heads do not like to get hot keep it running at 165 is best bet any debris on the radiator and it will creep up fast

    AMMPS 5/10/15KW Starter Source

    Summit Racing can order the starter from factory direct over a month out, Area Diesel advertises it but they have no idea when they would receive one from their vendor, Would not recommend the Ebay listed ones look at seller feed back.

    AMMPs 1030 non runner repair

    I have a new alternator coming and will update once it comes in. Just FYI it was not the ones for sale on EBAY that guy wants too much for beat up surplus units that have never been tested and no warranty and seems like someone i would not want to deal with after emails back and forth and...
