Thank you Guy. Would be running my 100% electric 1,500s/f house. Current temp is 15 degrees. Reason for my inquiry was last night there was a power failure. Needed to run the unit all night to stay warm.

Gent, how many hours of runtime will I get from a full tank of fuel on the mep005

We have been having quite a cold spell here in Virginia and with the holidays I have not done anything to the genset. I hope to get back into this very soon. I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and wish you all a very healthy and prosperous new year.

Thank-you, i appreciate the help. I dont understand where the pins are....I am sorry for being so ignorant with this

Hi Guy, thank-you for checking on me. I am confused with the test for Oil Pressure Gauge

Guy, the meter reads 24.7. When I put the probes on each post it does not read anything however, when I connect to one post and the back of the gauge it reads 24.7. Is this OK. And, have we determined that my gauge needs to be replaced? Next, item I would like to asses is the oil pressure gauge...

With your help Guy, I feel very good about anything that I run into. Thank-you to everyone that has offered up solutions/suggestions. I am so thankful to have found such a knowledgeable group for this genset.

thank you. I will check that too. i haven't had a chance to do anything yet. This daylight savings time makes it difficult to do things in the evening.

Guy: thank-you. I will try this out tomorrow. When i first set-up my generator I was fiddling with the oil gauge in the open control panel and I touched something with a wrench, it sparked and that is when my Battery Charging Unit stopped working. Not sure what I did. The first thing we will...

Guy, thank-you. I am so glad you have patience with me. I do have a multi meter. How do I test the DC voltage?

I really, really appreciate the help. I am completely ignorant to this because I have absolutely no idea what you are telling me to do.

Here are photos of my set-up. I want to thank all of the folks here. I would like to know about the goo and how to fix or what to replace. I cannot get the oil pressure gauge to work or the alternator gauge.

Thank-you sir. That makes me feel much better. I run the unit once a month to keep the battery charged up via the alternator. Do I drain the filter housing after I run the unit or after I run it. (The answer to that question is in the -12 manual, under the PMCS section.) I have a few other...

Guy, I will check those manuals out. Thank you. You are a wealth of knowledge. I will try and figure out how to post a photo. Does not appear as an easy task. Maybe it is me. I am generally very computer savvy. - douglas

Thank-you sir. That makes me feel much better. I run the unit once a month to keep the battery charged up via the alternator. Do I drain the filter housing after I run the unit or after I run it. I have a few other questions. If I am looking for spare parts such as alternator, batteries and...

I apologize, but my reply was cut short. I respect what you are telling me, but I have already run the unit since I did what I did and was hoping that since the second filter was clean and just the primary dirty that possibly the small filter was OK.

Sir, thank-you again. I did drain the filter from the bottom and there was no water. When I changed the the fuel filters the second one, right next to the one I did not clean was very, very clean and the 3rd one which I think is the primary was very dirty. I cleaned the housing out very well on...

Thank-you very much. I changed the oil, oil filter and changed (2) of the fuel filters but I did not mess with the smallest filter because I did not have a new gasket. Do you think that is OK? What size gasket would I need? I did not see any leaks. So far, so good. I appreciate all of the help...

Thank-you sir. Oil and fuel filters

Thank-you sir. I see the manuals but need to know which one is for the maintenance. Thank-you for helping me
