OK, so I went through the post suggested and the TM is almost useless for the questions I have. I am not going to hook this to my house I just want to run as a stand alone unit to power 1 240 outlet and 3 120 outlets separate from plugs on front of gen set.I have a ground rod and the unit...

Has anyone built a ASK for a MEP-002/003?

I lived in upstate NY for years and used HH oil. I would not think there would be a problem using it in an engine. Keep in mind their are those who burn used motor oil in their diesels. If properly heated WVO will work I don't know why HH oil would not............Just my 2 cents

The Works toilet cleaner works. Rinse well and fill with fuel immediately after.

That helps but why would you run a ground wire from L3 to ground stud in a 120v setup? In these pics ground goes right to stud. TY for link I did not get anything with key words I was using.

It would be as a stand alone unit, I can not put a switch in where I live. Was thinking I could have a panel made so I could use cords to power what I deeded in case of outage. most would be just regular household plugs however my AC is 230v with a plug that kind of looks like a regular plug...

I searched for power connections...no luck

OK, I am trying to understand the power connections for my MEP-002. I do not understand the "hieroglyphics" on the door and after going through TM I seem to be more confused. I understand that for a single phase 120 I connect my neutral and ground to L3 and also run a wire to my ground stud...

I work for a CO. that does GOV. contract work. We ordered about 80 of those cans, half water, half diesel. Was thinking of asking if they could get more from their supplier, but would probably have to order a lot.

What do you think about the plastic "Jerry" cans?

Welder is a BAD IDEA on any kind of tank. Had a guy I work with tell me he had gotten an old fuel tank for the back of his truck. He needed a different opening on it so he filled it with water and let it sit for a few days. He drained the water and as soon as he put the fire to it he got a flare...

Never mind I looked it up.

What is wet stacking? I know, I know, your thinking what a NEWB. LOL

TY, I have been doing meter tests to make sure everything was working properly so I have not been running with load. TY very much for your help.

I apologize for for being dense, but what I am asking is it ok to just run with no load. The gen set I had before this one I would run every few weeks with no load just as a maintenance thing. Is this OK to do with these sets? TY for bearing with me:)
