    So I bought one of the power plants plus an additional skid mounted 803 in Yermo. Needing some help in getting this picked up and dismounted off the trailer and ready for pick up by FedEx. Anyone willing to help in trade for a good deal on the trailer or something else?

    MEP 805A/806A Control Cabinets interchangeable?

    Are the entire control cabinets containing all the gauges, VR, and various electrical boxes interchangeable between a 805A and a 806A? I know at a minimum I’d have to swap out the VRs, potentiometers, and transformers so they all match Libby to Libby and TRC to TRC but other than that, will they...

    MEP-805A going into Overspeed

    I’ve been out of the loop myself with the holidays and flu. Finally got back out there today. Fuel flow was perfect. I could manually run the injection pump once I disconnected it from the governor it it ran flawlessly. I then hooked it back up and started testing the gcu. I could get it to run...

    MEP-805A going into Overspeed

    voltage meter is reading as it should and adjustable up and down. PM complete. The only thing is I’m starting/running off slave cable from another 805A. Would that make a dofference?

    MEP-805A going into Overspeed

    Yes it does produce voltage. I took a short video of it running but don’t see how to post it. When it runs it’s surging some. I’ll see if I can post the video on the original

    MEP-805A going into Overspeed

    So I have an 805A that has 9 hours on it after tier 2 reset. When I start it, it immediately goes into over speed and shuts down. It doesn’t seem like it’s running at the 2200 RPM mark that the manual says for Overspeed threshold. I have checked the MPU which shows 2.2 VAC. I did not take the...

    Anyone in New Jersey want 2 cheap M103 trailers?

    These do not have covers. They are generator trailers. I’d like to get these picked up this week if possible. I have attached a picture. There are 2 of them

    Anyone in New Jersey want 2 cheap M103 trailers?

    I won 2 power distribution units (2 trailers with 4 MEP-803a’s), located in Verona, NJ. With fuel rates it’s not worth it to ship the gennys with the trailers but I can ship just the Gens thru FedEx with my corporate account. I need someone that can pick up the trailers, dismount the Gens and...

    MEP-803A: It Runs, It Generates, but it won’t shut off

    Some Progress! not entirely fixed but I did make some progress this evening before it got dark. I started with one of the suggestions above by adjusting the pumps. I rotated them all to where the pump inlet was as far towards the pushrod jugs as possible. I then started the machine and let it...

    MEP-803A: It Runs, It Generates, but it won’t shut off

    I did read that thread prior to post my issue. The fuel solenoid, linkage, and rack appear to be working as they should. When starting the machine, the solenoid it actuating to open the fuel rack/pumps and when the S1 star switch is turned off, the solenoid returns the lever back closed butthr...

    MEP-803A: It Runs, It Generates, but it won’t shut off

    So I bought this 803a as a non runner with 1000 hours on it. I had it delivered with about 25 other machines and it did not have the exhaust flap on it which subsequently got water down the exhaust and ending up in the crankcase mixing water with the oil. I drained all that out and added fresh...

    MEP-804b Potentiometer/Voltage adjustment

    MEP-804b question: On the MEP-804b, is the potentiometer knob/assembly the same from an 804 to 805 and 806? I know it needs to match the VR whether is be a Libby or TRC but other than that, can I rob one off an 805 to use on an 804?

    MEP-802a Power on only 1 leg?

    I’m not as well versed in the labeling of the parts but which one is the K1 relay? Is that also know as the circuit interrupter?
