I got the pump off, it wasn't too bad. I wasn't expecting the shaft to stay on the engine. I cleaned the pump out there was still a lot of dirt in it. I am going to have to send it out to get it rebuilt.
Did you pull off the front cover where the shaft and gear are? Should I do that...
I am going to work on Pump removal. I have the TM. I just need to find out what exactly needs to be lined up to be able to remove and then reinstall the pump.
I will try taking it apart and cleaning it, but I have a feeling it will have to be shipped off for repair.
I don't think i can...
Last night I drained the pump down, all the linkages inside the pump are moving correctly but it looks very dirty inside the pump body. I ran a can of cleaner through it and removed the bottom plug that has a 1-1/8" head on it. Not entire sure what that plug is but a fair amount of dirt came...
Let me know how it turns out for you. If it runs well etc.
I am going to try moving the slider bar, I think it moves now, but I am going to be 100% certain.
I did see that today and I am going to work with that a bit. What is the best way to drain the fuel from the pump? I had the top off and it was full with fuel. It is hard to see anything in there.

I removed the top cover of the IP where the solenoid...
I have some take out heaters from m35's and m809 that i could bring. I have some 9.00 x 20's on wheels that i can bring. steering box from a m35 and some other parts from an m35
Good call on the brake line. I will have to try just tapping the pumps while 24 volts is applied.
It is also good to know there is no hydraulic system that I am missing.
I recently got a 1977 mep005 generator on a trailer. I am in the process of trying to get it running. I have a copy of the TM's that i have reviewed but i am still having some questions.
When i got it all the fluids and the filters were drained / removed.
I put 2 gal of 15/40 W oil in the...
Does anyone know if the generator head from a MEP005 will fit on a MEP815 ( 400 Hz).
I am looking to go from the 6 cyl white engine to the 4 cyl john deere engine. I have both a MEP005 and a MEP815.
So will the generator head fit?
