That one shown on the unit at GovPlant is 100% what I will need. That Generator was sold and looked rough. Did further search with them and they had 2 other units that looked incomplete as well as missing half of its parts. Yes, the first link was in Fayetteville, NC at Fort Bragg, NC. I retired...

Solution Found Guyfang your post right here is what got my MEP-005A running. EVERYONE gave great and sincere advise but in my case, running the Battle Short Switch for 5 minutes before bleeding the line worked for my problem. We never even dreamed of running the Battle short switch for such an...

Guyfang My Friend, I have received two emails says I got posts from you but when I click on the steelsoldiers provided links it takes me to the link Zed posted earlier. I've never seen anything so weird. Maybe I should turn off my computer and restart it? I found this way to contact you via your...

Thanks, the one on my Generator is incorrect. It is a 24V for a jeep. I do not have the original one to compare. That has become a big problem of a sudden. I been following your advice suggestions but no luck as of yet. I'm hoping my Friend "Guyfang" can come up with the correct NSN number. My...

Hello My Friend, Someone must have removed the ether kit cause it is gone. Mechanic came over yesterday (Friday) afternoon and ran the Battle Switch for about 5 minutes as had been recommended then got up and cracked the #6 line and I ran starter over about 30 seconds and it busted off. Let it...

Mechanic got the MEP-005A cranked. He wanted me to ask you what the "ether" is on the diagram. He looked the system over big time trying to figure out if the generator has a ether starting aid kit similar to what some farm tractors have. If it does, where is it located. Second and final...

We got the Generator started today. Mechanic wants me to wait a full 24 hours to try and crank it again to see if the diesel bleeds back down the lines. He says that is most concern at this time now. Says if it doesn't that he will consider it fixed. We shut it down several time and left it off...

Thanks 155mm

Info forwarded to mechanic Just as soon as I can possibly get him on the phone. He lives ever so far from here. Thanks my friend. We may be able to make Big Progress. Am at the mercy of getting him here. He works at a Ford dealership and has many other folks waiting for him on the side lines...

Just as soon as I can possibly get him on the phone. He lives ever so far from here. Thanks my friend. We may be able to make Big Progress. Am at the mercy of getting him here. He works at a Ford dealership and has many other folks waiting for him on the side lines for him to work during weekends.

My mechanic said to ask you if had any trouble with the pickups (line that goes into diesel tank) in the diesel tank because he says that the fuel is foamy. He said is there a way to straight wire (jump) the electric fuel pumps so that can run constant. He cannot hear if they are running while...

Also, Is the Mep-005A a fuel self priming unit? Thanks . . .

Got it. Hope you got my email. As you can see, I am a "Night Owl". I going to try to get this all done Sat. or Sunday if the mechanic shows. Hope you got my email message. I think I got the feel of the site better now. Keep me in mind my friend.

My MEP-005A also has a Roosamaster Injection pump. I have recently changed the oil and there was no indication that the oil had and contamination at all. The low oil idiot light has almost always been off when the engine is up and running. The light is always on though when the engine is turned...

Fuel filter containers were 100% clean. Thanks.
