    Mep002/3 Question

    Change position of the main reconnection switch several times, make sure it "snaps" into each position. And if that doesn't work out, open up the box under the connection lugs and make sure you have the proper voltages on both sides of the main breaker (CAREFULLY). That has been an issue for...

    MEP-002A Starting question

    If you want to call it zero time you can. It means that they put the entire set back to factory spec. It could still have an old engine on it, but if it was within factory spec they didn't touch it. If it was out of spec, it was either rebuilt or replaced. The same goes for everything else.

    4A032 no spark at all

    Also, I think I might have the engine TM at home, but I'll have to look tomorrow when I am at home. If I do, I'll make sure you get a copy.

    4A032 no spark at all

    Try these TM's, it appears from the pics you posted when you won the trailer that these might be the ones you are looking for. They are in the Resources section, under Misc TM's, then in the "TM's for Tents and Misc" section. LO5-4930-217-12 TM5-4930-217-14 TM5-4930-217-20P...

    Starter issue on MEP-002 & MEP-003

    That switch you found is the starter lockout switch (Yes, it's been covered MANY times before). It is designed to not allow the starter to engage once the engine is up to operating speed, if it is adjusted properly. That switch is in there because sometime down the road you might need to...

    G204 Rectifier help plese

    I'm at a loss myself. The only other thing that could have been tested would have been to leave the B+ disconnected and see is you had over 12 volts DC on it before it was hooked to the ammeter. That would have at least proved conclusivly that the rectifier/regulator was being damaged by the...

    MEP 002 for home backup?

    Problem is, you're almost at the maximum current rating of the 002a with just your AC running, and the water heater when it cycles on will add another 20 amps minimum to that. Not to mention that if you are using any water to make the water heater cycle on, then the pump will come on as...

    G204 Rectifier help plese

    No, it shouldn't..I hope LOL With the way your alternator is wired, the center tap of the alternator is ground. Think of it in terms of your house wiring. Phase to Phase voltage in your house is 240 volts. Phase to Phase voltage of your alternator is 39 volts. Phase to "Neutral" in your...

    G204 Rectifier help plese

    Yes, I got a chance to look at them a bit while I was at work the other night. But unfortunately I have been too busy to do much of anything else lately. Apparently the old rectifier and regulator were build to handle that high of an AC voltage, and there is also the "red" wire to deal with...

    Our Neighbor Needed a Lift!

    Talk about poor lifting etiquette!!! NO outriggers down, NO protection for the lifting straps around the corners of that rail!! All in all, a job well done though.

    2012 Anti-haspin rally

    Steve, I think you hit the nail on the head. I was gonna suggest that he didn't like it because bringing that truck was like bringing a knife to a gun fight. Don't get me wrong, the GA rally is fun. But I like Haspin too, other than the heat, but stretch seems to like to have it that time of...
