    Soft Brakes, and line question

    If your brakes work OK when the pedal finally starts to get tension, more than likely you just need to bleed the brakes. Start with the master cylinder itself and then move to the passenger side rear dual and work your way closer to the master cylinder just like you would with a car.

    Soft Brakes, and line question

    I would agree with what you said except for the fact that his vent line is disconnected. So if his air pack were going bad it would have just blown the fluid out of the open vent and all over the top of the master cylinder. Also, unless yours was plumbed in differently than the stock ones the...

    Finally found the air leak

    since I'm seeing some sort of wired device attached to it, I am going to assume an air pressure switch?

    Made a mistake

    Rich, I know you said in your other thread you got carried away with the post, but I deleted it anyway. Please try to be more careful about cross posting in multiple sections of the forum.

    Which MEP is this?

    I had bid on a few of those site unseen. I never even saw one till we got yours working. I gotta say, I am impressed with the little guy (The generator, not you Kip). They are one sweet little genny. I might still have to try to buy one.

    What size generator needed

    Not pertaining to the OP's question, but in reference to metalworker393's statement... Wetstacking is a cumulative affect, if you are running the set for back-up power or even just giving it a monthly workout, you don't need to be concerned about wetstacking so much. As long as you give it a...

    MEP-003A Will Not Start - Need Mechanic- Chicago Area

    That's FANTASTIC news. Congratulations on finding and fixing the problem. I know it was probably a bit frustrating and time consuming, but the satisfaction of working on and fixing your own problems is worth it. Not to mention all of the valuable learning you have achieved throughout this...

    MEP-003A Will Not Start - Need Mechanic- Chicago Area

    Sorry to hear you had to give up on the old one. But from what you describe on the new one it's just a simple governor adjustment. I don't have the TM's in front of me right now to tell you where the adjustment procedure is located. But, it has been covered here on SS before and a little...

    MEP-002A & MEP-016D Just Arrived

    Pretty nice looking set of generators you have there. But the pictures don't show any issues with the slave receptacle on the 002a? It looks like it's all there.

    MEP-003A Will Not Start - Need Mechanic- Chicago Area

    even with the throttle wide open, you should not be hydro-locked from that. Even if the fuel pumps were left running they would NEVER pump enough pressure to pop open an injector and fill the cylinder with fuel. I would use the prybar and rotate the engine through 3 more complete revolutions...

    MEP-002A & MEP-016D Just Arrived

    Congrats on the scores Yes, it is perfectly fin to run the generator with the main breaker Off. It will not hurt a thing. Just make sure you don't run it at idle...I had to say it aua

    MEP-003A Will Not Start - Need Mechanic- Chicago Area

    Yes, you should be able to turn it over with a 1/2" ratchet. You should even be able to get by the compression stroke with a little effort. I see you said the other "mechanic" used ether on the engine??? If he sprayed the ether in it before it was cranking he could have done some serious...
