    803a won't restart

    There may be something to the warm fuel pump. When they go bad they will work fine till they get hot, then they quit. Cool off and they work again till hot etc. etc.

    Ultimate well nut repair

    Great job Triton. Looks like tight clearance for the socket to fit the nut but obviously it fit ok. Thanx for posting. I would have been tempted to change the other one while it was all apart.

    Automatic transfer switch MEP-803a house backup

    Ultimate well nut repair

    You don't have to remove the tank. You could run a piece of wire up through the fuel drain hole to the filler neck and slip the bulkhead fitting onto the wire and it will slide down the wire to the drain hole. Easier said than done but doable for sure. I believe you can reach the return line...

    Ultimate well nut repair

    The fuel drain well nut will definitely leak when it dry rots, I would change them both at the same time. There are two, one on the top for return line and one on the side(fuel drain).
