Remember though, that's at full load....how much load is a fan impeller going to put on a motor???? I'm going to go out on a limb here and say less than 5% load...it's only moving air, not trying to turn a belt or conveyor or something. from the sound of it you did this on more than one...

Bjorn is right about the heater resistor, the set-up calls for a 5 Ohm, 50 watt resistor, but I used a 100 watt for better heat dissipation so it doesn't burn up. Just google 5 ohm power resistor, or go to e-pay....I bought a two pack of nice sealed resistors inside of pretty aluminum heat...

CT means Current Transformer CVT should mean Current & Voltage Transducer Bob, send me a pm, I have one sitting around, but I have no idea of it's condition....it was in a set I bought for parts, the plastic housing is cracked at the mounting feet, I think from somebody dropping the set, I...

I would be very concerned about the sheetmetal, as the "tins" are an integral part of the cooling air flow on these sets. Also, if one of the glow plug rods drops into the cylinder, having to pull the head may be a problem as head gaskets might be as hard to come by as hen's teeth. I wish you...

I saw that one too....I never would have guessed that a winch was worth $4000 to $5000....too rich for me I even let one of those nice MEP-701a's go for $320, I dropped out at $250, I wish I knew it was going to go that cheap!!!!! or it would be mine

the issue I'm having though , is that I'm not pulling hills, I'm driving up what I consider SLIGHT grades on the highway, not hills. The truck drops from 2400-2500 down to 2200 to get up the hill. I've driven other trucks (stock) that had way more power than mine does. I drove one home...

Some interesting developments since last posting on the subject. I talked to some members about the FDC, and read up on bypassing the FDC a little. Turns out my FDC, even though it is marked "Internally Bypassed" was also bypasses the correct way (Externally). Since I never looked into the...

m16ty hit the nail on the head...Craftsman tools up through the 1/2 inch drive stuff is good, wrenches and things of that nature are good too. Plus they are easily returnable if one breaks or you just want to get a new one. He also is right about the screwdrivers, Craftsman screwdrivers are...

if you pick it up by the lift ring which is right by the air cleaner housing, it will be a little "Front" heavy...engine side will be a little heavier. The TM section for installing the ASK lists the control panel as the rear of the set. But back to your original question, depending on how you...

I saw that previously dh, I'm referring to the description under the forum title...it needs changed to reflect the new selection

First off let me make this perfectly clear...I MEAN ABSOLUTELY NO DISRESPECT TOWARD OUR FORMER CHAPLAIN AYMYMAN30YearsPlus!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was glancing at the forum list this evening when I logged in and noticed the description under the forum title for the Chaplain's Corner Forum...it's time to...

Ike, your explanation is very well thought out, but I think a little clarification is in order. The first rule of electricity...Power is Power the way you worded that part makes it seem, at first glance, that you only have a limited amount of usable power available when you are in 120/240...

that will come in really handy when the power is out and you're hooking up your generator for back-up power Divemaster, That was a very good explanation of how to synchronize two power sources, but for all intents and purposes, the frequency isn't going to be that critical. Yes, the power...

5 to 10 KW should easily run what you have in your cabin. the largest concern is going to be the water heater, but even with a 5 kw MEP you should have plenty of power available to run everything else too.

when you upload a video to youtube, to the right of the player on the youtube site they will have two boxes, one with the embedding code (which is what you have above), and the other with the URL link to the video. I thought there was a setting in your user control panel that needed turned on...

Mike is definitely one of a kind!!!!!!!! If there is anything I can afford :oops: at Sparta in the future, I'll definitely be going back.

Do a search on the sight here...those MEP-003a's are awesome machines, but you will find that they already have mufflers on them. An additional muffler will help very little as most of the noise you are hearing is just normal diesel noise. And noise is relative, I have two of these sets, and I...

take the passenger seat out because it's a heck of a lot easier to work on the jack-shaft from the top than it is from under the truck. If a lot of people have trouble with the jack-shaft bolts coming loose, this could be a reason why....you can't get the proper leverage on the wrenches to...

I can't help out on the compressor, but I believe that the MEP-016D generators, most if not all are diesel engine sets. They are 3 Phase, but have a switch for 120/240 volt single phase operation and 120 volt only single phase operation.

pull the passenger seat and tunnels from the cab and gearshift lever. Pull the jack-shaft between the transfer and transmission. Remove the clutch linkage and unbolt it. I may have missed one or two minor small things, but it's that easy. Shouldn't take more than an hour to pull the...
