I'm looking into getting a cargo trailer to tow with my F-350. I want this to increase my firewood-carrying capacity. The M101 and M105 trailers can often be had cheaply on GL.
I was looking at the specs of both trailers over on the Olive Drab website. Although the M105 is a "1 1/2 ton"...
I would like to add a 2nd, larger muffler to a couple of my generater sets. I was thinking that a smaller automotive type mufler might do the job,but figured htere was more to the selection process than just putting any old mufler on. I know that bigger isn't always better. What I want, is...
I have an MEP-026C, and two DC4.2 ORD/28 APUs (28VDC Gensets). I got these from GL, and they haven't been run in a while.
I tried to run the 026C today. I can get it to start with starter fluid, so I know the ignition and starter are both working OK. I can't get it to pump fuel from...
I have three APU/Gensets with the 4A032 engine on them. I'd like to get these running, but would assume the carbs are probably all gummed up from sitting. Are rebuild kits available for these, or is it just best to replace the whole carb?
Thanks,

Lets have an MEP roll call.
What all model MEPs do members have? And what condition were they in when you get 'em home?
I'll start:
(2) MEP-016E 3KW Diesel w/ Yanmar L100AE power. One running (1869hrs), one not (455hrs) (yet).
(1) MEP-016D 3KW Diesel w/ Yanmar L70AE power (169hrs)...
I was messing around with google and was able to get accurate prices for a past sale that I bought some items in (while not actually logged into my GL account). On this particular report, the prices for the items I won are correct:
Sale 5014 - Demil Q Industrial, Marine & Vehicular See ...
I looked forward to today with anticipation. I finally successfully navigated the EUC gauntlet, and made my pickup appointment of the three generators I "won" in sale #5014, two MEP-016B's, and one MEP-016A, all converted to Yanmar diesel engines. I'm guessing these are actually 2...
Auction was awarded 18-Feb.
I fill out EUC immediately.
They don't get back to me until yesterday, 3-Mar.
They want revisions.
I send revisions same day.
They get back to me today, 4-Mar -- want more revisions -- remind me that:
Keep in mind that the bid closing date for this sale was...
Has anyone here sold an item you needed to file an EUC for when you purchased it?
Does any paperwork need to be filed with the gov't?
Also, when you all file your EUC, what do you put down for use? Personal? Resale? Etc?
Do I need to put down resale if I think I might sell?
I...
What is a good source for the male plug to connect 24V starting current to start an MEP (my MEP-026C, and two ORD/28's don't have onboard batteries, or a spot for one), just this big round connector with two round pins that appear to be about 6mm in dia.
Thanks,
Jay
Single cylinder Yanmar engines are used on many pieces of military auxiliary equipment, including, but probably not limited to generators, air compressors, and pumps.
I have a couple of MEP-016D generators that have the Yanmar L70, as well as a civilian-issue L40A, and L100AE. Where is...
