    MEP-501a Question

    I believe "full charge" on a 24v system is around 25.5 or something like that. You can charge at the 28 volts i do believe without an issue.

    MEP Starter Issue--Not lockout switch?-Help

    are the batteries FULLY charged? That seems to be something that has created issues for many looking at threads. Check the obvious if you haven't done so

    Missing Something Mep002a and Mep003a

    I got the same ones for the 002. I got Exide Classic 34C's from a local Battery Warehouse for $85 each for the 003.

    Heating oil vs offroad diesel in MEP802A

    I'm no expert but I been told it can also scar the cylinder walls. I should say when I was told that it was in regards to 2 cycle gas engines so I'd assume it could be hard on anything?

    802A Parallel operation ???

    Just a dummy here but it sounds like not so good an idea to me. I'll just get a bigger generator if I need more :wink: I just as soon not toast my electronics for the sake of an experiment

    MEP701a start up, Click, Click, Click

    I'd bet they would still be under warranty if built 6/13. I'd take them somewhere that sells that brand and have them test them

    MEP701a start up, Click, Click, Click

    No expert here but I'd probably make sure I have good clean connections everywhere and then throw a charger on it for a bit before I'd start anything drastic. I may be way off base but just my thoughts. I will mention I don't have a 701a

    New NY guy on the hunt for a mep-002a...

    ​First of all, use white font. It is much easier to read. Washer: I used a rubber washer with a stainless backup between the housing and acorn nut. I would put the switch on prime and let it run for a few minutes and wait until you get fuel returning to the tank Use glow plugs, depending on...

    Both of mine were bonded to the chassis

    MEP 003a Question

    Wouldn't connecting the ground directly to the ground rod in effect to the same thing. You would have the same common ground as you panel. If I am not mistaken you need to remove the neutral bond on the generator chassis if doing it this way! Is that correct?

    New NY guy on the hunt for a mep-002a...

    I agree with both Ike and Ray70. A push lawn mower is louder and more annoying than one of these. Noise is overrated in this case

    New NY guy on the hunt for a mep-002a...

    I believe Ray70 covered it pretty well. One other thing I guess to consider is a flat on the way or a flat when you get there that cannot be repaired without removing/replacing the tire. I'd get an early start in case you have to do a little work there and if you don't you'll be home early
