    Fuel drain for MEP 803A

    I think the O ring groove is key to sealing, which is why I would recommend the original 'ultimate well nut' upgrade. With the O ring in the groove, the sealing gasket is much more prone to properly sealing (where the ungrooved item, the gasket can distort for the reasons mentioned above. Plus...

    Fuel drain for MEP 803A

    So you are looking for the brass drain, or the well nut? There are a number of low end copies of the 'ultimate well nut' that are on the market, that should be considered poor replacements. As 2Pb calls out, the right one has an O ring groove in the rear face of the bung assembly, and includes a...

    802a Coolant Fault Light

    If this were me? I would pull the temp switch like mentioned above, and completely drain the cooling system and flush with distilled water a couple of times. At the same time, I would put in a new thermostat (its real handy to refill the cooling system the majority of the way, through the...

    802a Coolant Fault Light

    Well if the top hose is hot, and the lower hose significantly cooler... I would stay the T stat is at least functioning (possibly not at its peak, but lets put that aside for right now). If you are getting the fault light at varying temperature levels, thats due to this puppy...

    Any auto parts store should carrying deoxidizing spray/ electronic contact cleaner. CRC, Permatex, Berryman, etc... all available at an O Reillys. I have just had excellent success with the Deoxit stuff (which Ive only found in stock locally ever at a Guitar Center, of all places). Glad to...

    mep 802aoverload panel light on

    If everything appears in order (no motor chugging, no gauges reading way off from where they should be, etc) I would suspect you need to get a can of a good deoxidizing spray (I like Deoxit D5) and you need to hit all the switches, contacts, etc in the machine. It requires taking the roof panel...

    How to wire a power panel right to my mep 803a generator

    Use a heavy set of jumper cables. Drive the rod, and hook up one side of the cables to the rod, and the same color (other side) to the grounding lug of the machine. Its better than nothing at all, and affords you versatility.

    MEP802 oil pressure switch wiring

    You will have one unused wire on the switch. Its a multi-tap, can be configured as a NO or a NC switch depending on how its connected. No issue there. On cut wires, look at the actual wire sheathing, there should be number info printed on it every couple of inches. That's your key to tracking...
