    MEP-005A Tech Manual

    Thank you Guy. Would be running my 100% electric 1,500s/f house. Current temp is 15 degrees. Reason for my inquiry was last night there was a power failure. Needed to run the unit all night to stay warm.

    MEP-005A Tech Manual

    Here are photos of my set-up. I want to thank all of the folks here. I would like to know about the goo and how to fix or what to replace. I cannot get the oil pressure gauge to work or the alternator gauge.

    MEP-005A Tech Manual

    Thank-you sir. That makes me feel much better. I run the unit once a month to keep the battery charged up via the alternator. Do I drain the filter housing after I run the unit or after I run it. (The answer to that question is in the -12 manual, under the PMCS section.) I have a few other...

    MEP-005A Tech Manual

    Sir, thank-you again. I did drain the filter from the bottom and there was no water. When I changed the the fuel filters the second one, right next to the one I did not clean was very, very clean and the 3rd one which I think is the primary was very dirty. I cleaned the housing out very well on...

    MEP-005A Tech Manual

    Thank-you very much. I changed the oil, oil filter and changed (2) of the fuel filters but I did not mess with the smallest filter because I did not have a new gasket. Do you think that is OK? What size gasket would I need? I did not see any leaks. So far, so good. I appreciate all of the help...
