In the garbage it goes then. Thanks!

Ok, sweet, i have the 2 battery trays. I thought they were covers. I also found the slots the rods hang into. Dang they are hard to see. Thanks!

So tonite i built a rolling stand for the generator so i can move it around as necessary. I placed an order for a Noco Genius G7200 Batter charger. Thanks to Daybreak, i finally have a charger at home, and as a bonus, it charges AGM batteries and 24v. It's been on my to do list to get a battery...

Sweet lord did you hit the nail on the head with this comment. I was following the 802 you are referring to. I just checked what it ultimately went for. $3,488!!!!! For heavens sake! I mean i just picked up my woodland 802 with 24 hours on a m116a3 which is like new for $1,600! And someone...

I haven't even started it yet. I plan to do everything i did to my mep-002a. Drain all fluids, replace all replacable filters with new, change oil, drain old diesel and replace with fresh, allow to bleed out and cycle through on prime for a good while, charge up batteries to 100%, THEN attempt a...

Yeap. I got it off. Bought some chain last night, screwed together a jig, lifted it up, dragged the trailer out from underneath it while the hubs were sitting ontop of some pressure treated 2x10 sections. Then i ever so gently lowered the 802 down to the ground. Thankfully it all went well.

Interesting. I assume then that the dyes used are of different but similar colors depending on supplier, as the dyes in MA and eastern NY make diesel look a dirty red blood brown. Ok, thanks. It's still coming out. I can't confirm its age so out it will come. Can anyone confirm if it's possible...

Guys, can you tell me why hot links are showing up and not images? I manually typed in the . Thing and i got hotlinks instead? NEVERMIND Anyway. A few quick questions. The diesel has a magenta color to it. I have seen stale dissel and it did not look like this. What am i seeing? Second. I want...

Since i started this thread, i realized i should have posted it under the pick up questions forum. I'd like to apologize to everyone for that. I have an actual pick up question and since this thread is already here, i figure i'll just continue here and ask my question in this already started...

I bet you got these in NH. I was watching that double unit and forgot about it. Went back a day later and it was gone. I saw what you paid. You STOLE them. Congrats. Keep us posted as to how it goes.

I haven't taken possession of my 802a yet as im waiting for my EUC to go thru ( uuuurrgghhh) but from all the reading i have done here, i distinctly remember reading that the 802 and 803 engines had occassional head gasket issues. You may need to replace your head gasket. Keep a very close eye...

This needs to be a STICKY for sure. Thanks man. Now that i have one coming, it's good to know. I love this place.

Thanks man. Thats exactly the info i was looking for.

Thanks for everyones replies so far. I paid for the item and will send euc later tonite. I made two calls to govplanet, both reps remarked that run times for euc approvals are currently running between 8-10 weeks. It looks like i'll be picking up the generator at the beginning of january. Sigh...

Today I won an auction for an mep-802a on a m116a3 trailer on govplanet, located at Fort Drum. Upon reviewing the pick up details it says : "No loading dock, ramps, or fork lift available. Only RGN (i guess goose neck) or trailers with ramps can be used to pick up this item at this location...

Cdr, where did you get yours? Govliq or private sale?

Mike, if u dont mind me asking, what did u end up paying for this? I was watching that myself, being in albany, the drive would have been 7 hours round trip. Alas, the bidding got to rich for my blood.

Those were virgin like. I almost bid on 4-5 of them. They all went for a VERY cheap price. I was going to drive out the 12 hours and pick them up on my landscape trailer. At some point i decided it was bad timing financially. Im financially highly conservative but in this case i very much wish...
