ISO Front Fuel Tank Panel

[southern79]

Good afternoon everyone! This is my first post on SS. I just purchased an MEP803 and am excited to get it up and running. Unfortunately it arrived missing the fuel cap, fuel drain wellnut and front cover. I've purchased the cap and well nut off of eBay.

Do any of you have a front cover that you would be willing to part with (see pic)? I'm in Columbia, SC.

2nd question: for those of you using lawn mower batteries, did you change the cable ends or just clamp the cables to the tractor style battery? $46x3 seems much more appealing than $139+ x2.

Thanks,

Robert

Did your machine retain the drain assembly that the well nut installs on?

Fortunately, I do have the drain assembly and copper washer. It was down in the belly under the engine, loose.

The nitrile well nut should be here Tuesday.

I did some google reconnaissance and found adapters for lawn and garden to top post. The smaller batteries will work fine in good 'ol SC.
