Just for reference for others on what and where the grounding bar is.
I didn’t know when I first got my MEP-803A and had to look it up.
Bottom picture is NOT my generator.
Borrowed pic from internet
Bottom well nut installed.
Was a nightmare getting the old one out.
(Replacement fuel drain cap was reattached after photo)
Fuel fill neck and strainer cleaned up nicely and reinstalled.
New fuel cap gasket installed. Used silicone grease on the gasket so it doesn’t stick, but still seals...
Older thread, but current grounding question.
Read lots of old threads, but still a bit confused.
I think I understand it, but want to be sure.
I'm clear on what color wire and gauge size goes to each lug on the TB2 panel.
If I am wiring my MEP-803A (No Trailer) to the house panel, remove the...

I still need to install the well nut modification kit.
Found two NOS OEM senders, but the sellers thought they were Gold.

You do not need to remove tank to install the new KUS sensor.
Will be using SS bolts instead of the Phillips screws.
Drained fuel and looked inside tank and surprisingly, it was almost spotless.

Installed the battery hold downs today.
Went ahead and used that one plastic shield on the starter side since it wouldn’t be in the way of anything.
Don’t think I have it installed correctly anyway.
The terminal flap covers will be installed later when I can find them.
