    How many ways does government liquidation suck let me count the ways!

    I got to say, I have bought a number most likely 40 pallets of equipment through GL, and with the exception of not ever being able to reach anyone for an appointment to pickup at OKC, I have always been pleased with the experience. Locations in MO, OK, KS. OKC I just go there and they work...

    MEP-003A No-start After Fuel Filter Replacement

    Blizzard to be here tomorrow during the day. This is a genset we got from Conservation from the FEPP program, and have not started until we worked on it today. Is there a shut off switch somewhere I could be missing? What actually controls the fuel shut off - electrically? I will...

    MEP-003A No-start After Fuel Filter Replacement

    As a COLD update, I turn the unit to prime/run, and see no movement of the linkage that goes up and down just forward of the injector pump. At what point SHOULD I see movement there, and what is probable cause of no movement? (I am assuming this is the fuel shut off solenoid?)

    MEP-003A No-start After Fuel Filter Replacement

    To bring an old thread back to life... We have an impending blizzard. Sitting here with an MEP003 genset, cranks, but no start. We have fuel going to the fuel injector pump (at least I think so) but nothing after that. Could I be missing something, or do I need to replace that pump? Please...

    NF2D Light Cart Help

    I did google, but found nothing. This is 12 volts, it has the Kohler genset inside with 1 square light, but I believe it is supposed to have two of the lights.

    buying my first deuce

    And I don't intend any ill will towards Mr Scott, I suspect we all have succumbed to youthful .... "Exuberance" at one time or another. I do fear that climbing into other people trucks without permission could result in bad things happening at some point. Many of the farmers that own these...

    engine prep

    The truck will be turned into the Missouri Conservation department this week, DRIVEN to their West Plains office, and then from there to their Lebanon MO facility. At that point they will decide if the truck (that was run quite a bit during the ice storm of 2009) will be redistributed or sent...

    making a trade?

    No, the owner, the Missouri Conservation Department, nor the user, the Lanton Fire Department at no time, in any way, shape, form, or manner said he would trade, sell, give, or otherwise barter the truck. The Fire Chief (ME) did give you the contact number of the Missouri Conservation...

    buying my first deuce

    Let me throw out a few things on this "find". First of all, I am the Chief of the Lanton Volunteer Fire Department, located just south of West Plains Missouri, the department pictured and mentioned in this thread. I am also the person who mows the grass at the station. (Chief Cook, Bottle...

    m1008 fuel pump issue

    I have searched, but found nothing specific to this. M1008, used as a Fire Department brush truck for a small department in Missouri. Truck sputtered and died. Volunteer checked the output of the fuel pump, and got no fuel while cranking. We made sure there was fuel in tank, adding a...
