    Tire valve question

    The shorter, strait, metal ones with bolt are good and do not need to be replaced with tire.

    Small spark when I connect the batteries on the 002?

    I have the same thing in my latest 003. I was thinking it was related to jammed shut of solenoid, which tends to stick in off position, but have not verified that yet. Please post what you find out.

    Wiper motor alignment

    It rotates, if the wipers are still parking in down position when off it is ok.

    MEP-003 Main AC breaker and R-3 adjustment questions

    I bought a complete reconnection box from someone parting out an 002. It looks unmolested and has good static R-3 resistance. I figured I would have to take four wraps off the current transformer so it have the four wraps instead of eight. But it only has four wraps like my 003. Both of my...

    002 has the wrong model IP? Does this make sense?

    If the plunger shaft is broken, it is not easy fixed as it is mated with head, if it is just a pin, you may be able to fix if that is all that is wrong. Buggerage and metal shavings a bad sign though. If you replace the pump, pay attention to timing button thickness. There is good general info...

    test

    I guess I am gullible cause I clicked on the attachment. They always say not to.

    NO Voltage or HZ reading on meters

    I would agree, the first 002 I got had some loose leads and one completely off the reconnection switch, including a couple of the main T connections.

    new toy

    That's cool. How does the strength and density of plastic on those knobs compare to OEM?

    CUCV PTO operation

    I like the green governor on light he's got in the vidio. I don't think it is stock, a good easy addition though.

    CUCV PTO operation

    Not sure about the TMs, but this one is commercial, not military. This one also has comercial Lima Mac alternator manual in it. This is a PDF file.

    NO Voltage or HZ reading on meters

    I think he means check if the diodes are good. Should be very little resistance (OHMs) in one direction and a lot in the other. You can do this with generator not running.

    NO Voltage or HZ reading on meters

    I would try replacing master switch before I went any further, as it is such an easy fix to try. Like any ignition type switch, it can develop a bad spot.

    NO Voltage or HZ reading on meters

    Sounds like you may be on to something, switches can go bad.

    Can't get my M1028 to run...

    If you want to try the clogged sock theory, blow some compressed air up the fuel line. If that helps, go ahead empty the crud from tank, replace or clean the sock, as it will clog again soon if you don't.

    Can't get my M1028 to run...

    You may just need another fuel filter. If there is crud in the tank they clog up fast.

    Can you identify this component of a Generator trailer?

    I think the EUC designation is sometimes more random than that. There is currently a 80's civy gas pickup on auction at a certain site with an EUC on it. Someone clicked a button on a computer form.

    Electrical questions

    Those inner fenders are available new, pretty cheep, from Mill Supply. You might add the reenforcements for the battery mounts from the old one.

    Electrical questions

    This is a real safety issue. If you put them in cab, they should be secured and in a battery box of some kind. It would be best if it was vented outside cab. Ever get a lungful of acid fumes? Not to mention shorts, acid burns and fires if there is an accident.

    MEP-003 Main AC breaker and R-3 adjustment questions

    Well, I tried another breaker out of the old 002. Same bad R-3 reading. Same loading problems. The more I look at the workmanship on the reconnection switch installation, the more I suspect that is the problem. There are a couple 16g wires involved in R-3 circuit that go though S-6. Looks...

    Thanks, I emailed one of the contacts you supplied at Kampi. We will see if they are willing to deal with such a small order.
