    MEP 003a back together...but...

    Jerry, Keith answered your question pretty well in the thread you posted about the board differences. That also explains why (more than likely) the OP had put a board form an MEP-002a into his 003a and it burned up. The board out of the 112a will work, but NOT for very long inside the 003a...

    Thanks for letting me know your price Phil, but unfortunately it's too rich for me :-(

    MEP 003a back together...but...

    I would like to see the physical difference you are talking about, because they are the same board. Both have the same NSN, and same P/N. Electrically they should be exactly the same as well. Maybe you saw an older style vs. a newer style. They did make a design change somewhere along the...

    MEP 003a back together...but...

    Yes, that is the NSN for the DC regulator which is located under the cooling fan shroud. Again, it's not the DC regulator that will be damaged by idling the engine. The AC regulator does not like to have the engine at idle.

    Finally getting a MEP-002a

    Ike, Welcome to the club finally. I know you have several sets, and have been very helpful in the MEP area when members have issues. Now you can put that knowledge to use and get that baby running like a top!!!!

    Once again, how much are you asking for the winch?

    You might be confusing the DC regulator with the AC regulator. The DC regulator doesn't give 2 cents whether the engine is at idle or not...the AC regulator however certainly does care.

    Those DC regulators are most definitely the weak link in the MEP-002a's and MEP-003a's

    Military tents?

    I have one of the Hunter Space Heater Arctic (SHA) stoves. Liquid fuel fired, or wood or coal, and totally self contained. The flue pipes are nested pipes and fit inside the stove for easy transport and storage. I would think that would be plenty big enough for a 16 x 16. They get HOT.

    mep 003a high hertz and surging

    The easiest place to start is by taking the two large plugs off of the back of your output box. These are the ones with the generator head leads. Then, meter each large lead to ground. The only only one that should read a ground is the actual ground. The TM has resistance values in it, I...

    MEP-002a Manual Wire for 120/240 1 Phase

    Sorry to hear about the handle Mark; but at least it saves you the trouble of trying to re-invent the wheel, so to speak

    MEP-002a Manual Wire for 120/240 1 Phase

    You do realize that it is a spring loaded "snap" switch correct? You must take it past the position you are trying to switch it to and it will "snap" in (hence the name). A few people have had issues with sticking switches in the past. Try this... Open the front of the box to where you can...

    mep 003a high hertz and surging

    It could be that simple, or it could mean a complete generator head rewind. Only some troubleshooting and testing will determine the truth

    mep 003a high hertz and surging

    If it sounds like the engine is loading down then you definitely have a short somewhere in the generator. From the sound of it, it is just an intermittent one as it's coming and going every fer seconds. It could be in the output box, but more than likely it's something in the generator head.

    M936 unavailable after winning

    Not only that Jeff, but they are essentially condoning someone else "stealing" your property. That's exactly what it is, because once you win that lot and pay for it, whether or not it's been picked up yet, it now belongs to you unless Uncle says your EUC won't fly. A couple of years ago, the...

    MEP-003a Engine Swap

    A lot of cold weather doesn't hurt anything either, because you'll be working too hard to want to do it when it's hot outside!

    Double-check my troubleshooting 003a

    Crawdaddy, You mentioned in an earlier post that you were going to re-use the original button on your new pump to flow time it? Did you do this, or just stick the pump on with the drill bit in the 1/8" hole? It's possible that you could still have the pump off by one tooth on the gear. But...

    m998 fiberglass tops on GL

    What you do in private is your own business, but please don't talk about it openly on S.S. Had he contacted you, that would have been Colusion and not only is against the site rules, but is against the law!
