Also, the bracket that holds the meter to the panel is a spot that requires attention sometimes. Its the GROUND. There is even a PS Magazine article about it. The bracket has to be "Just Right" to insure a good ground.

Youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu know, what they say about assuming?

I took a look at the TM's and FEDLOG, under Prestolite 5717244. There is no record of that model. Plenty in the net, but nothing in FEDLOG or the TM. Perhaps this was installed at some point in time, because its will work right? The number seems to be associated with the HMMWV. If this is in...

M7-S (130B) goes to J7-3 P7-3 (130A9 goes to MT7-1

The audience of this manual is an 18 year old soldier or airman. Not a lot of common sense or experience there. You are so wrong there. There is plenty of common sense in the young soldiers. And experience? Maybe not in generators, but a young soldier may very well have built a fast car, or be...

There is nothing like a stroll through a junk yard to make you feel better. If I lived in the States, I would take several strolls, and see if I could not find a few bottles. Sooner, rather than later, someone will need one, and if you charge 3-4 bucks more than it cost you, your still showing a...

Its just broke in, with 1300 hours.

Everyone misses the Transfer pump, because it part of the engine. Look at TM 9-2815-255-24P, Figure 16, Item 24.

The transfer pump, is a Lever/Arm driven pump. Injector pump needs no explanation. The AUX pump is only used to transfer fuel from a secondary source, to the generator fuel tank. When the fuel tank is full, a fuel level switch cuts the power off, and the AUX system is disabled, until the set...

Say something when this is a done deal. Thanks

The prime and run position. With the engine off, all the run circuits are energized. It doesn't prime anything, as there is no electric fuel pump. With the engine ON and running, All run circuits are energized, and the set operates. This position is where the S1 will spring back to, after you...

Two question... What "wonder fluid" would you recommend for soaking? Any fluid that will take off the diesel Lacquer. Any i would recommend, would have to be ordered from Germany. Might not be cost effective. I see 3 check valves between the Fuel Tank and the IP, is that all of them? There is...

He was an Ordnance guy. What can I say. Engineers have a law about being too dumb to chew gum and walk.

Update on MEP005A generator. Injection pump working now, unstuck after years of non-use. Thanks to PB Blaster. Installed new seals on injection pump fuel line connections-no leaks anymore-unit starts and produces 120/208 3 phase. Alternator produces 27 volts DC or so to batteries--Voltage...

Keep in mind, the E-pumps will/should come on at a good pace, as soon as they are energized. Then, because the pumped fuel will at sometime fill the system up a bit, they can slow down. But they should always be energized, therefor always pumping. The AUX pump is the only pump that actually gets...

Good deal!

There wasn't a schematic on the battery box lid? What model M915?

Wait!!!!!!!!!!!!! No you should NOT hear anything. Sorry, I was helping someone with an MEP-005A, and just kept thinking about a different gen set. Sorry, one hundred times. All you have is a hand operated primer hand pump. There is an AUX electric fuel pump. But no other electric fuel pump...

Yes, you should hear the electric fuel pump come on. It should slow down/stop when it has primed the system.

Chris has a LOT of neat toys in the shop!!
