    Goldneagle's M116A1 Generator Trailer restore and modification thread

    I would like to get the proper vinyl top for a M116 generator trailer. Therefor I need the standard height of the top of bows so I can fabricate the proper height staves that will eventually support the vinyl top. It does not matter to me if it is specifically for the PU-620/M since I do not...

    Goldneagle's M116A1 Generator Trailer restore and modification thread

    Yesterday I sanded, primed, and painted 3 Jerrycan Holders. Today I installed them on the right fender of the trailer. In the pictures you will see I applied a black substance to the fender location where each Jerrycan holder will sit. I used a pencil to outline the location of each base...

    Fake GM Water Pump?

    If it is not as listed, AMAZON will pay for return shipping and either refund you or send you a replacement. They have really good customer service as my experience.

    Picked up some additional electrical components from Home Depot. Installed 2 outlet to the left of the breaker panel. Top outlet is a 20 AMP 120 Volt Ground Fault. The lower one is a 20 AMP 3 phase twist lock. Wiring is complete for this generator setup. See pictures.

    Managed to get the 2 outlet boxes wired today. All went smoothly except for the high humidity. Here are some pictures.

    Goldneagle's M116A1 Generator Trailer restore and modification thread

    Well that idea did not work out. Not enough depth in the box for the cover to close over the outlet and plug. I returned the panel to Home Depot and purchased (2) 50 amp 240 volt RV receptacle boxes. I replaced one of the 50 AMP outlets with a older style 3 prong 50 AMP 240 Volt outlet. This...

    Has anyone made up decals for the MEP-002A front panel?

    Can anyone do a scan of the front control panel and save it as a .jpg or .pdf? I can use it to get decals made at a sign shop.

    Has anyone made up decals for the MEP-002A front panel?

    I saw that one. Too pricey for me. Not worth replacing a perfectly good aluminum panel front just for some faded lettering. I am going to paint the aluminum and apply decals. JUst need something to work off of.

    Has anyone made up decals for the MEP-002A front panel?

    Has anyone made up decals for the MEP-002A front panel? All my data tags are bleached out. The only one I am really concerned about is the front panel. Would be a lot cheaper to get decals made than replacing the aluminum face plate. Maybe someone can do a nice tracing of the writing around...

    Thank you. I am humbled by your praise. Going to make up a custom outlet box from a gutted 3R exterior panel. Hopefully I can do it tomorrow.

    What is the AMP rating of CB1 (3phase breaker) on MEP002A generator?

    I just wanted to make sure they sere rated higher than the circuit breakers I want to install in the breaker panel I added to my setup. I plan to install a 20 AMP 3 Phase breaker for any 3 phase items I want to test. I am also installing some 2 pole breakers. 30/30 and 40/40 for single phase...

    What is the AMP rating of CB1 (3phase breaker) on MEP002A generator?

    Searched TMs as well as online and could not find the AMP rating of the CB1 3 phase circuit breaker on the MEP002A generator. It tells you the rating of the CB3 that protects the service outlet but no the main breaker. Anyone know what it should be?

    I was trying to figure out how to solve the vent issues with the fuel tank I installed. Juan Prado suggested using axle vents. Found a good deal on axle vents with 1/8" pipe thread on AMAZON.COM. Only $2.06 each! They fit perfectly on the 2 small ports of the fuel tank.

    I got the 3 phase electrical panel in last night from AMAZON.COM. The physical dimensions were a bit bigger than I envisioned. I had planned to mount the panel on the side of the tool box I mounted earlier this week. When I placed the box against the side of the tool box I could see some...
