    MEP-002a Troubles and Diagnostics

    I am almost thinking that. Im still trying to figure out how the electro magnetic field pulses in the fuel pump or how it creates a reciprocation of the piston. I wonder if it is just the spring rate of the large spring at the bottom of the stroke exceeds the force from the coil and thus pumps...

    MEP-002a Troubles and Diagnostics

    Ok so im still stumped. I have voltage at the pumps and when you turn the switch to either purge setting you can feel the pump "thud" like the solenoid coil becomes active and the field is created but nothing happens. I took one pump apart to look at how its made and all these are are a solenoid...

    MEP-002a Troubles and Diagnostics

    That just occurred to me to check again but when I was ringing everything out the pumps all had to ground paths to the main frame since I did most of my probing to ground. I did find that the line that goes to the DCVR from the control box for a time was ringing as going to ground. I...

    MEP-002a Troubles and Diagnostics

    I did some additional probing of the DC side of things and I am perplexed as to why the fuel pumps will not run. I have verified that I have voltage to the pumps but am having a similar issue to what a few people have had. If one pump is plugged in the voltage goes down to 2-4V but when all...

    MEP-002a Troubles and Diagnostics

    I accicentally won two lots of 2 -002a's on a M103 trailer out of DE last week. Loaded them up and got them home no problem the hours were 351, 451 on one trailer and 351, 1 on the other with the latter trailer having better looking generators. All of the units had Mfd dates of 1982/3 and all...

    M931 Bobber Project With Air Ride

    Yes I agree in that the travel is identical on the sweep of the end, but a J bar is very common on cars and hot rods. If it makes people feel more comfortable that it resembles a common part then I could change it but this truck is performing amazingly. Had it doing a bit of construction roads...

    5 Ton owners in NJ? Conflicting information from DMV on need for CDL

    They are no real help and your answer will change from each person you speak to. To even regester the vehicles you need to teach them. I had to do that with my deuce and just did it with 2 5 tons. Just getting them to do a code 15B (truck-not commercial) was a pita. The guy kept telling me that...

    WSUCougar's M925A1 Acquisition and Build Thread

    wsucougarx, your build is awesome love all the stuff you did to it. Would you be mind taking a few pictures of the PTO and pump area under the truck if you get a chance? I got a former seabee's batallion 23 truck that had a rebuild and i think they swapped the trans as i dont have the PTO or...

    M931 Bobber Project With Air Ride

    Tobys, yes half of what you said is not quite right but you are correct with describing the panhard bar and watts link. Issue with the panhard and the reason for the way I mounted it was believe it or not but it its very crowded in there. The way I have it now is the only real straight shot at...

    What to look for in a deuce?

    A bobbed deuce is a great DD in my opinion, I fit in all regular parking spots and the turning radius is great. I took 3' off mine
