    MEP-803A Long time reader first time poster

    That's great you got it going good! Just a thought since I mounted mine on wood too. I cut old tires sidewalls into rectangles to fit under the genset since it vibrated on the wood so much. Could feel it everywhere. That tire stuff stopped the drone vibration that drove me nuts. Sent from my...

    Need an aftermarket fuel filter for my M1009. Recommendations?

    I've seen some guys use the spin on filter setup off a newer chevy pickup that fits into where the original one is now.

    “84 M1009 electrical/ignition problems

    Wouldn't that mean he'd have no power right...probably burned up the wire going to the rear battery for the 12 volt conversion. Fusible link?? Ignition switch burned up or out of adjustment? Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    Gen 1 Dash Light

    I'm confused...maybe try a better google translation. If you unplug the regulator on gen one the light should go out. Does it do that? Your batteries will show 26 volts....one battery is at 12 and the other at 14 hence the 26 volts gen one is not working Unplug the regulator and see...

    Opinion on air filters?

    They were cheap yes but original gm filters.

    M1009 Little Red Riding Hood.

    That Line x will be fine when you paint it. I wonder if you need to use a primer on it so it sticks right?

    Opinion on air filters?

    That foam band you can get those foam covers online. I got a few for mine. Unfortunately I can't find the order that I got them from!! I think it was through napa though. I got 3 3 set nos boxes of filters and the foam was falling off so I blew it out and put new ones on. Got the filters...

    Gen 1 Dash Light

    No don't loosen the belt just make sure it isn't loose. Unplug the regulator and see if the light goes out.

    Stuck Injector? Mep 803a

    any chance the return fuel lines are doing that leaking all over the hose thing they do? Mine did that until I replaced that hose from the top of the engine down to the tank. I was just running the fuel pump for a few minutes before I'd try to start it and it was fine before I did replace it.

    Gen 1 Dash Light

    Ok if you unplugged the regulator and the light went out then you got a bad regulator or the belt is slipping like crazy. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    AcuTemp Refrigerator

    As many times I've had those batteries out I never noticed they weren't wired at the batteries for 24 volt...makes this charging setup much easier. A small maintaining charger would work perfectly. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    AcuTemp Refrigerator

    Interesting!! So I assume each port goes to one battery with a 12 volt charger? Could a 24 volt charger be used so only one plug is needed or wired I wonder. I see how that will work as it wouldn't be any different for the acutemp with the batteries hooked up and charged and being charged at...

    AcuTemp Refrigerator

    So I looked at mine today after sitting the last few weeks not plugged in and the batteries show 92% charge. It is inside the house so it isn't getting really hot if that matters or not.

    Gen 1 Issue?

    That stinks!! Unfortunately it does sound like the guys rebuilding them didn't know gen 1 had to be an isolated ground. If they're not familiar with the 24 volt system on these trucks it wouldn't be hard to miss. You should be able to test if it was isolated or not by checking resistance at the...

    Oil Pressure Gauge Location

    I'd hook one up there at the head. One thing I've seen when doing that though is you pop a t in there and that can break over time so use the shortest extension coming out of it to the t so it won't fracture with all the vibration or get a short hydraulic hose made so the vibration won't matter...

    If you can have an ac guy or electrician check the in rush amps of the ac setup, you may find a soft start will work. They're about 300$ and easy to install. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    How far away is the genset from the house? Is 6 4 big enough for the distance? Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk
