    Wet Sleeves leaking coolant into oil MEP-006a

    Why not new pistons? You have a broken skirt on one, cracked skirt on another and galls on the rest? Also, whats the first image of? It looks like where o rings may reside, which looks like electrolysis removed metal, but what part is that? I'd replace that entirely aswell. Forget a jb weld...

    Honda GX390 engine for pressure washer question.

    I aquired an industrial pressure washer made by Northern Tool at auction. Frankly i think this is the first time i may have been disappointed at pick up. Long story short it will take time to get real pretty to more than likely resell. Anyway, the pressure washer is a belt drive with a TS2021...

    Diesel additives

    How do you guys feel about silver Power Service? That's i think what was suggested for me to use as a lubricant additive to todays low sulfur diesels for my Mep-002a when i had that up until last year. I now have a Mep-802a and simply add enough silver bottle Power Service to my 30 gallon gas...

    Dang. That came out beautiful!!! I'll be getting me a can to touch up the engine cover below the oil fill. Seems it always peels in that spot. Thanks for the follow up!

    MEP-8xx engine paint

    Agreed. Let us know. i love touching up with favtory paint. I have a local auto body supply shop next to my work that can make up aerosol cans of any paint you want. The problem is they cost is like $35-45 a can.

    MEP-802A fuel tank removal.

    I bought a wrench from Delks a couple months ago as mine came with everything BUT the wrench. I figured it would come in handy. Completely useless. I dunno if i got a bigger one from an 803, but i can't even get it on a lug and turn it for lack of room to rotate it. Waste of money. I just use a...

    MEP-802A fuel tank removal.

    The wrench is grey in color, large and barely fits in its holder to the right of the output lugs. You would know it if you saw it. The bar you refer to certainly isn't the wrench. The unit is self priming unless you cracked the fuel injector lines. So put it back together, put it on prime, and...
