Thanks for all the help! No updates yet. I'm out of town for military duty. I hope to get back to this sometime this week if my schedule and Ddmk18's allows.
edit: I guess we were replying at the same time! Lo!l Doing this on my iPhone isn't the quickest.
I'm the one Ddmk18 is helping out. I have a few of these MEP-002As. I started in on this -002a last May--as in 2013 : / My daughter's wedding, my son's leave and another summer project or two made it easy to keep ignoring this project taking up my garage space. Here is the thread where you...
Thanks, I was wondering that very thing re: the O-rings. I don't need it, mine is completely serviceable, but I figured having a spare around wouldn't be a bad thing. Ten on the other hand at $4 each was a little much--until I need to.
Success! Once I started using the pick as a tool to remove the clip and not as an instrument to biopsy the bone in my left index finger :mad: it came right out. AMBAC says the parts should go out tomorrow.
As a side note: I was going to order some extra of those little clips, but they were...
Ahhh, so that's what I was missing. I'll give that try--Thanks!!
From the reading I was doing I was under the impression it was downward pressure on the larger ring (numbered 47) with whatever that special tool is that would allow you take out the center pin.
Sorry everyone, I have the plunger out of the pump body. I put it back in just to hold it for the pic. And you are correct, it slides right out--well, it's a tight fit as it should be, but it does move freely.
It's the captive end on the plunger I haven't been able to get apart.
I guess this is why I don't do puzzles much--I have the plunger out of the HH and I still can't get the end off. : / But, it's good to know I can put it back together with a socket. That was my first alternate tool I tried when I came to taking it apart. It'll have to wait til Wed now. I...
I learned how not to take IP apart
Well, along the lines of measure twice--cut once. I should've paid closer attention to just one of the references I was using, and read it through a time or two more than I did. I have the AMBAC pdf and the -34 TM. Going back and forth, I managed to get it...
You're quite welcome!
I just checked, and I do have the -12 and -34 downloaded. I know I read through them (the pertinent sections) looking for answers to my no fuel problem. You're right I misspoke, it's the -34 I'll need to take the IP off. I must have used the 24P to get the part # for...
Subscribed.
I'm going to have to go through this whole post another time or two. Last week, I started in on my 2nd MEP 002A that I bought last year prior to deploying. I have one up and running after fixing the same oil leak that was mentioned here. I waited almost a month for those...
Yeah, I was happy to see my first EUC only take a week. My corrections were submitted on 4 Mar and on the 11th I got my email saying the EUC cleared and my invoice was paid in full :grin:
Thank YOU! I've been googling this for the last hour--to no avail. I (usually) find better results that way rather than use the forums (or any forum's for that matter) search function.
I'm waiting for my EUC to clear for the M105A3 I won last week at Mechanicsburg. This is my first EUC, so I...
Help me out here please. If I understand this right then the intake gasket is part number 154-0733 as per the TM on this website that I downloaded--figure 35 on page 120 item number 3.
Did I get that right?
Thanks!
We used a 5 gal can for supply water, but I don't remember if we had a collection can for the waste water or not (it was Afghanistan--who gives a...rant aborted) anyways it was nice to have running water to wash you hands off. Especially after a case--or cases. It pumped water out slower than...
