I joined SS about 7 years ago to research getting a M998 that I always wanted. Just picked her up last weekend and couldn't be happier. Looking forward to learning more from everyone on the site as I learn more about my my new toy.

I was using poor search words and decided to use the numbers on the side and found the sending unit for $9.99 with free shipping. Thanks and I will add Delk for future purchases.

think i found the issue, the snder unit will not tighten at the bottom and appears stripped - spare parts website to recommend?

Picked up a MEP-802a last week from surplus and just got working on it. Few items were disconnected and I put them back together. Checked the fluids and installed new batteries and she fired up within a second. Makes power to the 110's and all looks good except for the oil guage jumps around...

Sadly it is the cap I need. Didn't think I would be able to find one so just thought I might have to buy the whole thing

Where is the best place to find replacement parts for the men-802a? I am looking for a hatch handle/unit, coolant bottle, panel light bulbs and a few other small items. Thanks

M-35, thanks for the information and wow, didn't know they could go for that and based on shipping I might have been a nice guy and hand delivered it to the land down under for you. I have been seeing that perhaps you can use these to fill scuba tanks-is that true?

I probably should have taken it off the trailer before I asked. I only can access the one side of the unit and saw just a spot for 1 battery. Like the fact that there are two and can hook up like I did for the Mep-002a. Thanks

Having a hard time finding a suitable 24v battery for my new MEP-802a. Suggestions for a 24v that fits perfectly in the compartment? Also, just picked up a compressor for a flamethrower and would like to know the value and were to sell. Last question, best place to list a MK64 cradle for the...

I found a fault anf got it back up and running. Now, the only way to get it running is with a jump. Once I have it running, it runs for about 10 minutes and then dies. Low or high oil dies in about 2 minutes so this makes me think alternator. Thoughts. maybe that loud pop was the alternator...

I wrote last week about a loud pop when starting my 5kw unit. I thought it was the K2 relay because when you placed it in pre-heat (the only one that it made any noise) it sounded like a bee buzzing in the relay. I bought a new relay and installed, same thing. Given there could be 100...

Carl - you are correct. I listed this wrong. The gas MEP017a is in the barn and not the issue. The issue is the MEP002 whic h is the diesel with the pre-heat. **** - you are good. I hooked the batteries back up and now I get the lights on the panel (before just all dead) and K2 behind the...

This is for the MEP002a and not the 017 gas that I listed - got my units mixed up. I went to fire up my 5kw unit today to get the fluids moving and primed the unit as normal and then when I was in the pre-heat mode, I head a large firecracker like crack and everything went dead. Norhting on...

You are dead on, it is the NEMA ML-2. I will be checking with the local supply shop to see if they carry, if not, I have seen several locations on the web to buy. Can't wait to see if this unit works.

Thanks for the reply. I was very hopeful with the Dayton site but appears they have very little Military wise at this time. I checked the Saturn site but their pictures are so poorly taken (in my opinion) that I could not tell if anything would even be close. They show a plug and show the...

I have purchased several items from the Government Liquidation site lately and some of the items have very specific an unique electrical plugs which I have not been able to find anywhere. The two recent purchases are the large tent heater which has a 120v 20amp plug similar to a tractor trailer...

Thanks for all of the tips. I went ahead and got a nos carb, installed her this afternoon and had it running and generating in less than 15 minutes. I had taken apart the carb but not sure if there was blockage as indicated above. The baby is working and now she is a good back up to the...

I fired up in normal and cut over to emergency right away and she cut down just the same as before. I think you are correct about the carb. Plan to order a new carb this week. Can the safety switches be acquired and replaced rather easily or is this a big task? Thanks again for the help -...

There is, I never tried running in this mode - Anything wrong wih running in that mode full time? Thanks

I have a MEP-017a 5kw gas generator that I just can't seem to get to run. I can rire it up with some motivation fluid (ether) but it will only run for about 5 seconds and then it shuts down right away. it doesn't matter if I keep squirting fluid or not, it just stops. I can then wait a few...
