I was looking at Rustys post on his mod. He states he used an " sw460 " avr. I could not find a sw460 avr for sale but what sx460 would work.
I am also guessing that I could use a connection box from an 002 machine as most everything will be removed ? ( planning on installing on an 003a...
Okay, I measured a spare flex disc that had out in the garage. This is a scale measurement, but it looks dead on if you turn the disc so the flat is on a 45° angle
Hello and how are you all doing. Do any of you have the bolt pattern on the flywheel that the 1/4-20 bolts go through for the flexplate ?
I can't find any drawing on the web for this flywheel. I looked for Delco patterns but could find nothing. Is there any drawing on this that the military...
Thank you for your response. Bell housing is a #4 and flywheel is a Delco.
Can't find a Delco flywheel drawing and that design is obsolete.
I can now measure my 002a and work from there on getting the 003a set up.
This has been extremely frustrating trying to get this repaired .
Hello and how are you all doing. I was messing around with my 003a again and still can figure out what's wrong with it and why it won't make power.
Thinking I might go to plan b.
What I would like to know is if the face of the bell housing to the face of the flywheel is the same between a 002...
Craig's set up , he has the machine running on 240 volt, single phase. He eliminated the selector switch, cvt 1 and 2 , I believe the bridge rectifier , the reactor and I think the main breaker.
What do all the symbols on his drawing mean ?
Hello and how are you all. Its been sometime since Ive been on here. Alot has been going on and I have been very busy.
So, this winter I want to get my 003a in the garage to see if I can get it to make power again. What I am interested in doing is setting it up like Craig Tull did. I want...
Chainbreaker , thanks for your response. I was looking at a battery kill switch I saw on Amazon, not too expensive and rated at 1000 amps but only for a few seconds.
I have my batteries off the skid in two plastic boxes . I had an oversized fuel tank made after hurricane Sandy years ago. Now...
Good and how are you all doing . Quick question- what are you guys using for a battery disconnect switch for the mep 002/003 generators ?
I have marine type battery terminals on my genset but I would like to add a disconnect switch .
If someone can provide a switch with a p/n I would...
Hello chainbreaker, thanks for the reply.
This is not a new unit to me. I've had this one for some time now . It was producing power , I had it running and getting ready to do a load test to exercise the machine, then it just stopped making power .
I hooked a 12 volt battery to TB3-5 & 6 and...
Hello and how are you all doing g . Haven't been on the forum in some time, had a lot going on.
So, I'm looking for some help . I can't get this 003a to make power. Is there anybody in New Jersey that can give me a hand with this unit ?
I've tried everything I can do to check the unit out...
Okay so i was looking through craigs post again. Not real electrical savvy so tell me if im reading his schematic correctly on which wires he used for the 240v configuration.
T8 & T10 T2 &T4 are for 3 phase, capped , not used.
For single phase he did this
T11 and T3
T7 and T6
T5 and T9
T1 and...
Yes chainbreaker , i have been skimming through rusty studs post on his modification.
I was also read through Craig Tull's post as well. Seems that the sx 460 should function fine without the flash option according to craigs post.
I would like to strip all of the extra stuff out of the...
Thanks for the reply Diesel Addict, but i do not believe its my vr. I replaced that with a good take out one to no avail. My machine would still not make power.
Unless, the one that triple jim makes bypasses the other components like the bridge rectifier, cvt1 etc ?
If thats the case , i...
Hello and how are you all doing today. Planning on dedicating more time to getting my 003a making power again , however im interested in changing it to an sx460 avr.
This unit i had written about before and still never was able to repair it.
I had a bad alternator (ac ) and bought a good t/o...
