    Yet Another Ohio Newbie

    Welcome aboard. I'm probably the closest Ohio member to you. I'm from just outside of Quaker City. We're finally getting a little group of SEO members rather than letting Cincy have all the people...LOL

    Connecting MEP to house

    BC The situation you are describing is what the NEC would deem to be a "Non Separately Derived System" (Non SDS) installation. In your case what you would want to do is this. 1) At the genset ground lug, disconnect the short wire coming from the plug on the back of the AC reconnection box...

    MEP-002A and -003A main breaker

    Have you had a chance to play around with the readings and settings yet? I completely understand if you've been waiting out the winter months. We've been having a long cold winter here ourselves. I'm getting anxious to see what your findings are.

    HELP!! installing the rebuilt IP - MEP-002A Refurb Update

    well, while that rebuild shop may be good at rebuilding the pumps, they obviously didn't read any information about installing them or timing them. The only way you can re-use your old button is if the port closing dimensions are exactly the same. On a side note as well....is there any kind of...

    Good deals with no cash, that's Gimpy through and through. He's famous for saying "I'll take lucky over good any day!" That's combined with the fact that he's the only person on earth cheaper than I am means he always finds the bargains.

    good luck to our road wearied travelers along their way. I hope you get lots of good bounty in your lot of assorted stuff...and if you happen to be throwing any of it away, throw it my way...LOL

    HELP!! installing the rebuilt IP - MEP-002A Refurb Update

    I certainly hope this solves all of your troubles. I'm kind of curious though, did the rebuild shops give you an estimate of how much it would cost to tear your IP apart and clean it up, rather than buying a rebuilt one? Then you could have used the same button and everything, just bolt it...

    HELP!! installing the rebuilt IP - MEP-002A Refurb Update

    I would suggest you use a "Holding Screwdriver" to get your screw started back in the hole. Once you get it started, you can get in there with a long skinny screwdriver to tighten it up. I'm sure you did it right, and it's just the way you wrote it up, but please reassure me for my own...

    HELP!! installing the rebuilt IP - MEP-002A Refurb Update

    Sounds like you made out pretty good, free overnight and 25% off is a good deal. I'm kind of surprised you never heard of the "Jesus" clip before...LOL I have hated dealing with those things for years!!!!!! Don't forget when you install the new pump to use your old shims. Also remove the...

    HELP!! installing the rebuilt IP - MEP-002A Refurb Update

    I can't help you much with getting the button out, other than there is some kind of internal retaining ring holding it in. But for the button, the port closing dimensions and the button codes you have indicate you will need a new button thickness. The TM states Port closing dimension of the...

    mep002 FVR 4006 Regulator Source?

    No, I wouldn't bother replacing that capacitor. The pump should run just fine without it. It's not like there are any fancy electronics in the pump to protect, it's just a motor after all.

    any Ohio deuce owners near Akron area?

    You're in Akron, go over to Adlemans in Canton. He has several deuces on the lot for parts. Many still have the tanks on them. It's just south of Canton on 43 in "Waco"

    Neil, Talk to your buddy Adam and fill up on his special "go go" juice at $2 / gallon that'll make the trip a whole bunch cheaper. Haspin wouldn't be the same without ya.
