As far as i can remember, and looking at the TM pinout diagram i just looked at, the wire i disconnected from the K15 relay was the 105D circuit on pin 4 of the relay socket. pretty sure it just a screw terminal. Disconnect that terminal and tape it up. It helped me with the SX460 AVR from...

I wouldn't spend that much on the solar pulse charger. A quick search of the big auction site as them from $100 to $200 for the kit. But I'd diagnose the system first. On a sunny day, check the panels output with a voltmeter to see if your getting voltage to the electronic box.Then slid a...

The metal fuel line is a Onan/Cummins part. The part number is in TM-9-2815-253-24P, page 24/25 in the PDF. Part # is 186-6160, with a NSN part # of 4710-01-382-2822. Be ready for a sticker price shock...Cheapest price i could fine from one website was $306.47 not including shipping/tax. At that...

If you want to quiet down the sound, I'd first seal any panels/joints/doors on the genset itself. I redid the seals on the doors on my 803A, and it made a noticeable difference in the noise coming from it...around 5-7db at 10-15ft from the genset. After that, I'd look into CLD tiles and Mass...

If you want a good tank,I'd look at the tractor/trailer salvage yards or shops. The one in my hometown has about an Acre of used tanks from tractors and refer trailers that were involved in accidents. They quoted me a price range from $50 to $150 for each type of tank, from 30gal refer trailer...

I wouldn't think that adding a Cat/DOC/DPF to a 80x set would be a good idea. These sets were design for the military and they are generally exempt from most emission/pollution controls for the sake of reliability. A cat/doc/dpf needs a certain temperature range to work effectively.Too cold and...

Well, i finally figured out my power issue to the modules. It was the CR-3 diode that had a bad solder joint on it not providing power to the modules when the starter switch was turned on. If anyone one wants to know where it is, it's in the wiring bundle in the control cabinet face directly...

Small world....I'm pretty sure that i bidded on that one myself. The corners on both of the one's i got are bent up. A good thick sheet of aluminum and my sheet metal brake should fix that. And the condensers on both are pretty bad too, One has a hole through it like yours. Its going to be a...

Well, i finally got to picking up the units today. Was an interesting drive home with both of them on the trailer. Seems like i got lucky with one of the ECU's on one of them...its a R407c unit,while the other is a R22. As far as the load out of the Albany yard, everything went smoothy with the...

Cool. I appreciate the replies. The GP guys over in Albany are very easy to work with when loading up things. Been over there several times now,and never had an issues with getting anything loaded up properly. But with these, i might have bitten more than i can chew...at least for now. At least...

Well, today i unintentional won 2 of the Hanco Drash Trailers. Was hoping just to get one, but got them both. Hopefully will be picking them up just before Christmas next week. I hope that i might be able to get a good one made out of the 2. But here's a question to anyone who has transported...

I live down in Douglas,GA. It's about 92 miles from the Atlantic and 115 miles from the Gulf. Generally don't have to worry about hurricanes living that far in land, but an odd tropical storm every once in a while does come over my area. Last year was the first year the NWS issued a...

Well, i just had a 2008 Chevy C4500 transit bus delivered from Marietta Ga to my home. I used the Veritread sit through GP....but you can set up an account separately on their site. Then you can list your load for a certain amount of time to get bids on the transport from different transport...

You and a few others. When I was towing the M1102 home, I had a few people ask me where I got it. Nothing brings up a quicker conversation than hauling something in OD green. One plan for the M1102 is to put my MEP-803A on it...once I built a deck for it. But the other plan is to extend the...

From what I've seen at the bases I deliver to, the chassis type M1102's had speciality equipment put on them. But if they did,they had a flat bed put on them to facilitate attachment of it. Their version of the flatbed had fenders that came up over the wheel wells that went all the way back to...
