    AMMPS MEP-1040 10KW Generator List of Part Numbers

    Anybody come up with a nice list for the body hardware like the TQG's? I just got one of these finally & it's I need of some. They're pretty specific. If not, I will figure it out eventually.

    Too much of a good thing, MEP-803a wouldn't stop!

    This is what will happen if the linkage comes off most of the time. It will empty the fuel filters as they're slightly above the injection pumps, so it knows no better & keeps going until starved. If you have a siphonage issue, you probable have something more serious going on. In my opinion...

    Good thinking outside the box.

    CTIS pressure settings increase - no programming, transducer, or module required.

    I have rebuilt quite a few of the wheel valve assemblies. The filters, even when they look okay, tend to restrict air flow. Easy way to see if they are the culprit it to remove them all around & give it a try. They generally get destroyed when removed as per design. The last issue I found on my...

    CTIS pressure settings increase - no programming, transducer, or module required.

    Possible you have an imbalance somewhere. When you have a system running at 80psi, it is much more sensitive to kinks and/or obstructions between the wheel valve (s) and the quick release valves. Any air left because of this will make the system think it was commanded to deflate. I had this...

    MEP 802A & 803A Upgrades

    I've updated the listing for the Tee's slightly again. For some reason, the claculated shipping with eBay & that one listing has been a NIGHTMARE for me. Worked with the technical side to try & resolve it so hopefully when the buyer purchases everything together in the cart, it SHOULDN'T make...

    M1078 LMTV Fix-up Thread

    Yeah, it's a tank! Genuine issue military "cans" (even though the new ones are plastic) have notches at the bottom so those bolts at the bottom will not rub. Something I didn't think to talk about in the video. Similar to how the mount itself has the bolt heads not flush.

    No big deal. Confirming the backwards comparability is good enough. Thank you!

    Harris PRC-152 VAA Project

    I have a few of those adapters already. When I see things cheap, like wires & what not, I grab them. Seems our minds were on the same track. In my head, I was thinking of going cannibalizing a serial connection for the radios I have... got a few. My challenge is the mapping. Guess I'll need to...

    Harris PRC-152 VAA Project

    I'm drown back to this thread... I got myself in the same situation as OP now. Got some Falcon II I'm wanting to work in the Falcon III VAA. @aleigh , did you perfect your 3D printed adapter there? I'm my head, I thought this would be ideal. I'd like to make my VAA able to go back to the...

    MEP-8xx wet stack info

    Yes, it stays into the 100deg range at night in summer & in the single digits in the winter. With people in an enclosed space, it gets over 120deg inside very quick... at night. You can imagine daytime! Ended up putting a second window A/C in. I had a Honda for a bit and it hated it. Inverter...

    MEP 802A & 803A Upgrades

    It's been pointed out to me that some of my items have been adopted by scammers of Facebook Marketplace, so be aware. I seldom post things on Facebook Marketplace. If I do, they are usually large items. And they will only be post by me, Colt.

    MEP Generators Auxillary Fuel Line Adapter Kit

    Everyone, Took me a while, but I managed to find the random, oddball adapters needed to make this small kit all at a reasonable price so that it would make sense to offer it as a kit moving forward. The price is $35 shipped. MEP Generator Auxiliary Fuel Adapter Kit Here is a copy of...

    MEP 802a Fuel Drain not draining

    I have had a few plugged up. A lot of them never get used. Best way to see if they can be freed up is open it all the way & blast it with air using the rubber tip from an air gun to get the best seal you can. You're cleaning everything out anyways, so pushing crap back into the tank is what it is.

    I got it from the Texas Federal Surplus Program. It's not private, but not a public program either.
