I was using the 531 last weekend and it had a few issues. I build the remote fuel setup as described in the manual and was running off of a 5 gallon fuel can when the clear fuel line between the fuel filter and the injection pump split open. It wasn't a big tear, maybe 1/8th inch long, but...

I just picked up the above mentioned generator and am looking for information. I found a manual for the Wisconsin V-4 engine, but I would love to get the manual for the generator itself. I have done a bit of searching already, but have come up empty handed. What I can tell so far is that it is a...

I was talking to a friend of mine who owns a surplus store chain about my new (to me, at least) MEP-016B, and I mentioned the unique battery...long story short, he said they had a bunch and we went to look at them. He said he has about 40 (plus or minus...he sometimes does that) NOS 24 volt 4HN...

recently won one out of Devil's Lake, ND. I did the search thing and the look through the manual thing...what is (or could be expected) fuel consumption of the gen set? Pick up is on Monday.

I was wondering if anyone in the area would mind doing an inspection for me. Should be fairly easy, sometime in the next week or so. Any help will be greatly appreciated, and may be worth a dinner at pick-up. Thanks!! Chris

I was wondering if anyone new a source for new glow plugs for the MEP's I did a search here and found a 2006 posting that said that Champion CH42 plugs are correct, but Champion's website says that they are discontinued without a replacement. Any ideas? I'd rather get new ones from a commercial...

Has anyone added a heater to their generator? I live in Minnesota, and as my gen set is not happy about starting at 15 degrees, I don't want to try it at -15. It seems that larger commercial sets use coolant heaters to keep the engine warm for easier starting. I know the MEP-002 and 3a don't...

I wanted to pick the brains of the more season folks (unlike myself) here. I am waiting on a 002a and I was wondering what the requirements for automatic starting would be. I might have a relatively low cost solution, but wanted to get the sequence down. This is what I have so far: sense power...

I'm waiting on a EUC for a MEP-002a, and the little GL window in the upper left corner popped this up: 6115 - Generator and Generator Sets, Electrical at Government Liquidation Auction has ended, so hopefully I'm not in the wrong... this new generator does not require a EUC...slipped through...

That's what we called them back in the late 80's. Does anyone know a source for them?? Thanks! Chris

Looking through the manual, it says that when you preheat, it energizes the glow plugs and heating elements. Where are/ what purpose does the 'heating elements' serve? The wiring diagram shows that the glow plugs and the heating elements are two different things. Thanks! Chris

New member here, twin cities area of Minnesota. I found this site doing some searching about the MEP-002a I just won on GL's site...I'm a little worried that I may not get what I won, but I'm sure it will work out one way or another. Not a big collector, but I do have a 2MC-1A diesel air...

Hello, new member here. I have watched GL for sometime, but made my first "purchase" this week. I've been browsing through all sorts of forums and postings...now I'm paranoid. I'm fine with waiting for the EUC to come back, but should I be worried about lot "switching" or something happening to...
