    Aux fuel tank and setup

    I wonder if the air could be replaced with a surge brake type mount. I have been wondering the same thing. Since they are hydraulic actuated pads you would think it could work. I'll take some pictures of the brake system so you can see it also. I'm really happy to have picked up this power...

    Aux fuel tank and setup

    I see the load bank display was pretty in sync with the frequency of the camera and showed nothing.

    Aux fuel tank and setup

    Light in the Dark is completely correct about the brakes. I don't have an LMTV, I towed it with my 1 ton. I was concerned about that exact thing when I was going to tow it back from Pennsylvania. My other concern was not having brakes on a trailer I was towing but it actually towed quite nicely...

    Aux fuel tank and setup

    These really are a good design. I got this tank and obviously a Gen or two. I am trying to figure out the best configuration so I have this tank and gen together on a trailer or possibly two trailers but I like the idea of pulling up setting the trailer and having power for days. I like that...

    MEP-804A/B fuel float switch replacement - non-existent??

    I am talking about one for an 804A btw. Not sure if that's what you're needing.

    MEP-804A/B fuel float switch replacement - non-existent??

    I did order it and received it but thought I had fixed the original in the mean time. I recently went to for up the gen and give it some exercise and realized the problem persists so I need to install the aftermarket float. The short answer is no I haven't installed and tested it yet. Sorry. I...

    Thanks for the input guys.

    Rebuild oil

    I definitely agree with that. Wondering if I should leave it in certainly wasn't about saving the money. I'm very mechanically inclined but not a mechanic. So I guess my follow up question would be should I get my hands on more of that break in oil or just put a good diesel oil in and then...

    Rebuild oil

    Hello. So I had bought a Gen (power plant 803A) with only 2 hours on the rebuilds and even have the chart showing what those two hours were from. Any way I've read quite a bit and even the green tag says to change at 100 hours. My question is would you still run up to the 100 hours on the same...

    Anyone know of TMs for this (PowerSystems International DRASH Shelter Transport Trailer)?

    I guess that is way too open ended a question since I bet they come in many sizes.

    Anyone know of TMs for this (PowerSystems International DRASH Shelter Transport Trailer)?

    How many KW are those drash Gens? I see them pop up pretty often but don't know anything about them and they don't usually talk about the gen much in the listing.

    Load Bank

    Well this is what that 400hz load bank turned out like. Not bad.. This one will test 400hz generators also. I had to bring it to work to give a real work out. None of the gens I have will more than tickle it.

    MEP-804A/B fuel float switch replacement - non-existent??

    It is for an 804A/B I thought that's what this thread was about. Yes BTW you can just unplug the float switch and it will not shut down on low fuel. You can run the generator out of fuel though.

    MEP-804A/B fuel float switch replacement - non-existent??

    I've had a similar problem. I had the guys at liquid level build me one that I haven't installed yet but it has two floats and the top float instead of having 3 inches of travel before changing state has about 3/4" so the aux pump will run more often. I paid $145 for the float. I don't mind...
