    When starting my 002 the wiring harness from the control panel to switch box melted down from some type of short?

    One of my die hard mep 002s melted the wiring harness that goes from the control panel to the switch box. It fried the harness and the center plug that goes into the back of the switch box! The unit never started, doesn’t seem to have damaged anything in the switch box or the control panel I...

    Melted small transformer on mep 005

    I don’t have one. I only have the repair manual Tm right now, and I am on an island which has weak cel signal so the odds of me successfully dowñloading a file that large aren’t very good. I was hoping to find someone with an 005 they are parting out, thanks

    Dongfeng cummins engines??? Are all cumins engines made in China?

    I know cummins engines go the distance but the China version isn’t tier 4 and that’s why they build them there for sales out side the USA and our emission laws. I’m going with the kohler 30kw with the 3 cyl 2.9 turbo John Deere. The us givernment uses it in the 805s and they test things and...

    Dongfeng cummins engines??? Are all cumins engines made in China?

    It looks like they are only making the smaller engines in other countries But due to that. I’m buying a pair of small kohler 5kw gasoline gensets for back ups until my container arrives. I really like the 30kw kohler with the John Deere 3 cyl turbo wet sleeve engine. Thanks for the info guys

    Which of these three generators do you like the best comparison

    I will source 55gallon drums of synthetic oil, to be honest I should be doing that with my dino oil lol I have a temp gun and that is a great idea to map the temp readings to help diagnose poor running issues in the future. I just ordered a ir tachometer for my 002s so I can adjust them to 1800...
