I just picked up a mep-006a. Its missing a diode suppressor that is right above the day tank. What's it for? Its a little black box that has for wires to it. Where can I get one? Is it the same on different models? Thanks Brad

I believe that part is called the rectifier assembly. Inside the "cube" are diodes which have something to do with fuel pump operation. I believe the float switch circuit is also related. The TM provides more details than I have in my head... I don't have any MEP5s or MEP6s but I suspect the rectifier assembly is the same as found on an MEP4. You can check the TMs (parts list) to confirm whether the NSN is common for all three models.
