Relief valve is needed to protect your vessel from over pressurization by your N2 bottle.

I used to make wine in my basement. Instead of bottling it I decided to try and store it in 5 gallon stainless steel coke kegs....ONCE. I filled the air gap with N2 and then pushed the wine out of the keg with N2. The wine went bad in a very few short weeks. I could not get ALL of the air...

23 days of run time on one tank of fuel: do you have 3 week outages? Treated diesel gets old and you need to change it out every couple years. I just changed out my 50 gallon tank a few weeks ago and I still have some to burn off in my truck. LITD has a good point: cover the tank if you go...

Check data plates on front of generator. Mine was manufactured in 10/03. Reset tag - upper right - show reset date of 3/12. If reset tag has been ripped off and your machine is sitting on a trailer check CARC paint date...it's usually the same date as the generator reset.

I bought my military trailer adapter at Erik's : https://www.eriksmilitarysurplus.com/mitradcamtro.html

Looks like he has an Airtex E1074 Aux fuel pump.

KennyO posted about meter calibration here: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/mep-meter-calibration.171920/ These meters are nowhere near as accurate as your multi-meter, but will give you an idea of what the machine is doing once they are dialed in. The 1500 watt heaters sound like mine...

I agree with Dav5: you need to calibrate your Percent Rated Current Meter with your multi-meter. I just visited my 802 that I have stored on some rural property I own. Each of the orange space heaters pulls 12.5 amps. My % Rated Current Meter was showing 45%. I have this machine set to...

I observed evidence of wet stacking my 802 in 65 hours of run time at around 20% load with my camper. I'm delivering 52 amps -- 120 volts single phase -- to a small camper. After 65 hours I noticed a wet fuel stain on the top of the unit next to exhaust stack. My solution....and it works...

I'm over powered too, with my 803. Outages have been short but I have an electric clothes dryer and a space heater I can run to get me up around 65%. And I share power with my neighbors. Operating quarterly test runs at 80%-100% with an old electric stove - or other 'load bank' - will keep...

I like the price of these connectors for my MEP-803A. However, these are 3 phase .... meaning the spades turn in toward center of connector versus the similar single phase 50 amp connectors (think CEP spider box) with spades that turn outward. The ones I received looked like they had been...
