Guys... you all have been great. The control instructions received are on target. These are nifty units. Put them under 3000wat load for better than a half hour.... no problem! Here's the current problem... Purchased 3 units, two are running well, the third appears to have a surging...

To all on board, thanks for your help. Got 2 of 3 MEP831's running. The 3rd is a mess, it's going to take some time to sort thru a half dozen problems. Again thanks to all.

New kid on the block here.... Read thru majority of post on MEP 831A... informative. Bought 3 units, one parts, two appear to function well, except for one of the two. The Governor appears to make unit surge. Upon start up it would run well for 3 minutes +/- then surge. Opened up the...
