    Updated - MEP-803a Has arrived! (Formerly "On Its way")

    Dupont Krytox Teflon grease is my go to on all things with a rubber o-ring, or seal. Effortless removal down the line of such things since it does not degrade or get washed away. There are higher temp versions that are probably better, but the 206 is what I have and works well. Take care...

    Updated - MEP-803a Has arrived! (Formerly "On Its way")

    Things I noticed whole vacuuming out the cobwebs: Obviously someone lost the fuel filter battle. Looks like, they drained the oil, took off the oil filter, destroyed the fuel filter, gave up and gave up. The hour meter reads 22.7 hours. Not the 222.7 in the auction listing. Here's to hoping...

    I will definitely incorporate the shimmed middle caster to my design. Thanks for the tip!!! So it's in my garage. Pretty much as advertised. Uship guy did a great job. $400 to him, $440 total, and another $200 for a fork lift rental. Initial quick inspection, there is oil in the crank case...

    Ahhh, should have known you already slayed this dragon. The pics are great and present a stable and cheap option to move it about. I have bigger mobility plans that will involve welding and result in the ability to winch it in and out of my truck bed quickly and safely. I was looking at this...

    Will this work to safely support and move an 803a about my limited garage space? It's a 1500 lb capacity wheel mover missing the bottle jack(easy replace) and I don't initially need to lift it any further...

    Thanks all! Making me have less "I always get out bid" buyers remorse! Honestly bid and expected to get out bid. I always get out bid, except this time! Matt

    Thanks for the info. I hope that's the toughest problem I'm up against. I'm a bit scared of a fully drained unit. Why is it fully drained, no oil filter, coolant overflow tank removed (but present).... Hopefully just drained for shipping and not a catastrophic failure. It does not appear that...

    Greetings from AZ. I recently won this MEP-803a, lots of good pics in the posting. My MEP-803a Description mentions "missing Fuse" cannot be tested/started. Here is a pic of what appears to be FU1 missing. Looks like the fuse and screw cap are both missing. What do you guys think? Tier 2...
