Well when beat up parts-only machines are pulling over $3k before premium, tax, and freight... yeah.I have lost my time and labor just fooling with them over the years since you can buy cheaper commercial units that supply more power for average home owners. I should have field stripped everyone I had and sold them piece by piece. More money in the parts business!
I have done the same....well nuts, thermostat, new belt all on standby. It's good to be prepared when the inevitable happens...Searched for these using the MFG number listed in the OPs link and found them listed at the same vendor without their prefix. Ordered two over the phone as suggested and just received a tracking number. http://www.plastic-mart.com/product/1040/1-4-brass-bulkhead-fitting-10897
Mine are not leaking that I know of but I thought I should go ahead and have them on hand. Probably won't install unless mine spring a leak. The older I get the more I settle into the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" club.
Dont forget hoses, filters and liquids. A spare starter is also a good thing to have on hand as well. The set is useless if you can't crank it up. I've got two MEP-803a sets and also keep one spare alternator.I have done the same....well nuts, thermostat, new belt all on standby. It's good to be prepared when the inevitable happens...
That is also in the plans, but for now I'll use a set of jumper cables connected at the correct points.If you have multiple MEPs, wouldn't hurt to have a slave cable in your stock too.
Chloroprene. From Wikipedia: Neoprene (also polychloroprene or pc-rubber) is a family of synthetic rubbers that are produced by polymerization of chloropreneAnd for anyone that does want to run the stock units, its a Pop Avdel 3ZLV3: https://www.grainger.com/product/3ZLV3
Cheaper than GMG I am sure.
