    How do I get to this TM I clicked on the number and it treats it like a telephone number. Maybe it’s because I am in Africa.

    Sealed distributor and plug wires

You sitll would have to prevent water from entering the carburetor in deep fording. Also there is a vent line on...

    Sealed distributor and plug wires

    If noone has answered your last question, just remove each system from each jeep and connect them the same way on the other jeep. Some of the 24 volt waterproof distributorw with the built in coil had a disc resistor under the coil. They probably have already bypassed this to make it 12 volt...

    Need MEP002A governor linkage

    I drilled a tiny hole in it and sprayed penetrating oil in it and put the small rod in a drill and ran it while working it in and out and so far it is working. if that doesnt last i will try the hot oil trick. Still would like to find a new one. it takes a few days to get anything shipped in here.

It is my standby generator here in Cameroon Africa. it has been running at least 2 or 3 times a month sometimes a week but it just got harder and harder to start. I tried to take the rod off and spray...

    Need MEP002A governor linkage

    Does anyone know where I can get a new governor linkage rod (the one that is spring loaded on the inside). Mine sticks every time the unit shuts down and I have to force it back up for restart. I've tried to get lubricant inside it but no help. Since my unit has remote start this is a big...
