    MEP804A start/run problems

    I pulled the fuel sending unit, it works as per TM. The fuel level gauge does not work now. I pulled the plug to FAULT board, the genny runs great! What would be your best guess?, is the board bad?

    MEP804A start/run problems

    Okay that sounds better, I'll let you know what I find. I pushed S7 up and let S1 go to run position. The genny kept running like it should, so that indicates what? bad floats

    MEP804A start/run problems

    Shortly after bringing the genny home I put new batteris in her. The genny would start and run but ran rough. I did some research for this problem and one of symptons pointed to the pump timing. The pump is brand new so I thind prior owner installed it incorrectly. The pump was not timed...

    MEP804A start/run problems

    I held the S1 switch in the run position, pushed in S17(the kill button). As soon as I pushed in S17 the genny died. Yes the idiot light came on also. I don't understand the test.

    MEP804A--Anyone have one of these?

    I have a 2007 MEP804A generator. I have had nothing but problems with it. First off someone installed a new pump and timed it incorrectly. I retimed it. It would run in the start position but would die when the switch is released. I found the 3A cold blow fuse was bad, purchased one and...

    Mep-804a

    I did not do a load test as yet. I get a little puff of black smoke on start up, which is normal. When jennie is running there is a constant plume of heavy diesel smelling whitish smoke. It is not over heating or consuming coolant. I have never owned one of these so I don't know how it should...

    Mep-804a

    Hi all, I purchased a MEP804A generator on a trailer. It starts right up and runs smooth but it is over fueling. It has a brand new injection pump on it but I think it might be a tooth off on timing. I need a IPB and tear down manual for this, it has an Isuzu 4 cylinder diesel. Any help or...
