    need help trouble shooting a mep002

    On fuel tanks, I have 002a tanks (makes no difference if you are using a remote fill tank, otherwise, just less capacity. If all you see is surface rust inside, don't worry about it. Just rinse inside with hot soapy water and rinse and drain. If sludge, etc, I put 5 lbs bolts and nuts...

    Won 2 MEP-002As--my first

    I buy Interstate SP22NF batteries on the 002a. Relatively inexpensive, about $75. I have an interstate account from my now defunct tackle and marine store. I did a lot of digging to find this model battery and the VA Beach Interstate distributor had to order it. When I requested 2, they...

    Good luck down range. Having spent 30+ years on active duty, I just can't fathom the optempo you are experiencing these past years. Thank you for your service. Jerry

    MEP-002A New Owner

    Lucky you. My wife jumped for joy when I sold one of my 002A's at my flea market last weekend. Next question was when are the other 5 going?

    SO, which board is the correct one for the 002a/003a? Diesel Bob said "The board labeled 72-5338 is listed for a 400hz unit. REGULATOR,VOLTAGE - 400 HZ 72-5338 (30554) 332-2285 (44940) The 72-5020 is for a 60hz unit. REGULATOR, VOLTAGE-60 HZ 72-5020 (30554) WebFLIS...

    http://www.steelsoldiers.com/auxiliary-equipment/79378-anyone-know-what-vr-board-fits.html I posted this several months ago to illustrate the differences. If interchangeable, good news.

    Several of mine also look like they were painted by a drunk with a brush. If it runs, who cares?

    MEP 003a back together...but...

    It is confusing. I've had folks pull AC regulators out of their 003a boxes and give me 002a part numbers for what was on their units. There is a physical difference between the two boards, but apparently they have been installed as interchangeable. Anyone know for sure? Jerry

    Finally getting a MEP-002a

    Ike, BTW: dragged 2 of my 002a's to my flea market last weekend and sold one for the $1,600 asking price and the other is being voted on by the Lions Club this week to power their food trailer. Yahoo! Wifey happy! She thought they were permanent decorations. Jerry :grd:

    Finally getting a MEP-002a

    Congrats Ike! I bid on one in VA (secret from wifey because she has lost patience), but it went too high. I did win 2 rebuilt, condition A1 002a motors last week but haven't picked them up yet. Lots of great possibilities with these. Will have to sneak them home along with the A1 and A4...

    mep-003a injector

    The fan wheel up front is not used in timing. You have to locate the marks through the small hole between the engine and generator head. It has a pointer index on it. I may have a tested serviceable injector remaining. Will check and let you know via PM. Jerry

    MEP-002A, 003A Fuel Pump Failures

    "Speddmon, I think I would start looking for a DC problem on your generator if I were you. A LOT of people have these generators, and the biggest problem reported by most people is plugged inlet screens and just frozen up from sitting on a GL lot for a year with old nasty diesel in them." I...

    need help trouble shooting a mep002

    No truer words can be said. Get the TM's, available on this site, read them and learn. But ,don't dismiss the dumb ones who bought GL without foreknowledge (as I dis a couple of years ago). These information-deprived folks are our future because they cared enough to buy a unit. They have...

    Golly, I wish I knew as much about this as Speddmon. I wouldn't have to refer so many people to him. Jerry
