The MEP-002a would be the perfect size for my house as well, but I like MEP-003a it is a powerhouse. I guess, I could just run some cable to the neighbors houses during power outages.

Great advice, I did not notice any wet stacking, but on the other hand I only ran the generator for one hour. The next time I run the unit i want to try and increase the load on the generator, I guess it will be laundry time. Thanks for all the advice from everyone, I just wanted to make sure I...

I hooked up my Mep003a to the house the other day and ran the AC, lights (most house lights are LED's), oven, and well on and off my son was playing with the hose and I was running at about 25% give or take. With the AC and oven off I was only at 1-5% load. My question is what is considered to...

Sorry they are not free, I know you had to try...

I was stationed at the Seabee Base in Gulfport about 8 months after Katrina had her way with the place, what a mess she made.

Generators on Harrisburg's Craigslist are a dime a dozen. Seeing how you only have 5 would you like 3 more to have an even 8?

Sitting on 3 generators right now waiting for the market to come around

I have generator with a PTO attached to the back of the power head, it spins hydraulic pump, maybe a system like that would work. it uses a rubber coupling to attach the pump.

Ray70, You got it right, it was the batteries both units started and ran fine with fresh batteries. Thanks for all your help guys.

I like creating work for myself and in the process of cleaning and testing the solenoid I lost a key part, there is a small round flat disk that fits into the plunger mechanism that fell out while I was not watching. I made a new one and it is working but I have not reinstalled it yet I am...

I did spin the engine over by hand so it is not locked up.

I have jumped the switch but still working the same (or not working) so I reconnected it. I do not believe the cut out is the problem. Funny how something so easy is so difficult. I am leaning towards it is a battery issue or a problem inside of the starter solenoid if the starter solenoid is...

Well seems to be I have two good batteries and two bad batteries. I took the good ones and paired them together instead of one good one bad the way it came to me. Now the starter solenoid activates but the starter will not spin. I tested the starter and it works just not by the switch. I placed...

I have week batteries, I will try jumping the starter like you said. So besides the starter, connections, batteries and the starter cut out connection nothing else keeps this thing from running?

Yes they are new to me, I am not at the point of bleeding the injectors yet. On the 5kw unit I checked the starter and it works the starter solenoid was a little sticky but still pushed the plunger to engage the gear. I did check the Cannon connector "over run or starter cut out" I did have a...

Well I have come across two Generator sets a 10kw and a 5kw with the same problem, both don't work. I have fuel, oil and battery power, (with the the help of a charger) they both prime and move through the steps of wanting to start. When I place he selector switch to start nothing happens no...
