    MEP 802 Need help badly - post Helene in FL

    Noted. I was a user of these, not a maintainer operator...so my knowledge is like a half millimeter deep. It has been flawless until today. I am very, very grateful. Not even sure when our power is coming back on, everything is leveled here. I got my starlink terminal or I would be flat...

    MEP 802 Need help badly - post Helene in FL

    Brother I owe you a beer. Did that and it fired right up... So, I am guessing I have a fault to run down? Wow...what a relief. This has been insane and I just didn't need this right now. Sean

    I put the battle short to ON and there were no faults that were present. Cycled the emergency stop button also.

    MEP 802 Need help badly - post Helene in FL

    MEP 802A - Roof structure with a baffle...anyone done this already?

    Thanks, for the ideas. Noodling through how I want to do this. I live out in the woods, and any noise is...noticeable. During our extended hurricane outages, I don't want a big bright X painted on my house because we are chugging along making power. We already adhere to light...

    MEP 802A - Roof structure with a baffle...anyone done this already?

    I have a new to me MEP 802A, 2011 model that has 20 hours on it. I cannot find anything indicating that it was depot rebuilt...I am somewhat familiar with the process on the Marine Corps side of things having spent my adult life in the gun club...so, pretty sure this is a 2011 model that sat...

    MEP 804 A External Fuel Fitting Size

    Yeah, sorry for the delay. My daggone Gator crapped out on me, and I am forced to walk until I can figure out what the heck made it just stop running....any good with Yanmar motors? I will snap a pic when I am over that part of my compound.

    MEP 804 A External Fuel Fitting Size

    Stopped by a hydraulic shop today...got a 10' length of 3/8th hose with a pressed on fitting for 36 bucks...fits like a charm, and I can now modify the open end to do whatever I need...and can modify it when I need to.

    MEP 804 A External Fuel Fitting Size

    No, it has a pipe type opening with a cap cover. In a pinch I could use a 55 Gal since that is what I use to haul fuel to the house now. I was hoping this would be an easy thing....never is.

    MEP 804 A External Fuel Fitting Size

    I want to add external fuel...have been all over the manuals, and one...cannot nail down for sure which is the fitting, and two cannot find anything via the NSN's that I am guessing are it. Has to be a standard AN fuel fitting... Help? Thanks
