cuad4u Which one of the screws did you adjust?

I was going to use a Fluke meter with a frequency scale to monitor the actual frequency as I vary the engine speed corresponding to between 55 and 65 HZ. While doing so I was going to calibrate the transducer.

My MEP-003a frequency meter is off so I would like to calibrate it. The Back of the frequency transducer has 2 adjustment screws labeled BAL and SPREAD. I would assume that the BAL screw is the same as the ZERO adjust and the SPREAD screw is the same as the SPAN adjust. Is the correct?

Thanks to info I got on another thread; I went to a large hose and fitting supplier in Baltimore to have a fuel hose made up for my recently acquired MEP-003. The fittings are AN -5 which the supplier had; however they told me that -5 hose to work with these fittings has an ID of 1/4". He talked...

Yes; I saw the check valve exactly where you mentioned. I thought it was a union of sorts. There is a study floating around the internet that compares different additives to ULSD with the old high sulphur diesel. Acording to the study ATF does not do much to improve lubricity. I will search...

Where is the check valve you mentioned located?

Yes; I got a hold of the parts manual for the MEP and the fuel line I asked about is shown in one of the pictures as a hose not a metal line. That makes sense since the IP is on the engine and the block is on the frame; vibration may be a problem with a metal line.

Recently purchased a 10K generator and am going over it. Fuel tank was a mess; full of rust and crud, but I couldn't believe how clean the strainers and filters were. Noticed that the fuel suction in the tank is about an 1" off the bottom of the tank; guess that's why the pumps didn't suck up...

Thanks for posting the manual it will help me get it running.

Have a Power Unit 214-B I want to get running and need the manual, a TM 11-945 dated 1944. Anybody have a copy they could copy or sell?

Unit I have is a PE-214-B and the correct TM is 11-945.

I recently can across a Power Unit PE-210 or PE-214-B; not sure which. I believe the TM is a 11-947. It's a small 120 or 240 volt generator with a 2 or 3 amp output. Driven by a 2 stroke Jacobson engine. Was wondering if anybody had any knowledge or info on this unit. I would like to get it...
