Oshkosh has it but sit down before you look at the price!
If you try searching by the engine you may find more results. I also found a Federal Mogul PN. when I searched your PN, you can try checking with any parts store who carries Federal Mogul and see if it is available or not.
It sounds to me like you're machine is fine. Most 802's will smoke a little as you approach the 100% output range, some smoke more than others. If one cylinder was smoking and the other not you can sometimes clean it up a bit by adjusting the metering pumps, but in all honesty I don't think you...
Hi Guyfang. I'll try checking that before I remove it, but I'm pretty confident this gen was functional up until the day it was prepped and turned in. If it was 180 out, wouldn't it still pump fuel, just 180 out of time? I'm not getting any fuel out of the injector lines ( although I'm only...
Well Guyfang, Looks like I'll probably be rebuilding the pump at some point. I did more checking this weekend and still no smoking gun as to why I'm not getting fuel pressure.
I removed the rear cover and everything was good. Vanes all look good and the shaft turns fine. The fuel inlet is fine...
Hi Brian, I know the bar you are talking about in Sewerzeuk's video's. Unfortunately I don't know enough about the buss bar to know why yours would be missing. Maybe you should look at the TM and see if there is a good explanation so you can determine if you have some odd ball configuration, or...
That's pretty much what I was thinking for next steps, check vane pump and verify shaft spins while I'm in there. I have a steady flow of fuel from the line, but from the window I doubt it, because it seemed to take almost 2 days for the pump body to refill after I drained it. However that was...
Well, here is where I'm at. I double checked everything under the top cover and reassembled. Took out the strainer on the fuel inlet and it was perfectly clean. checked the check valve on the fuel return also perfect. retested the fuel shut off solenoid and confirmed I can feel it hitting...
Hi Guy, no worries, hope you are feeling better! I played with it for a few minutes yesterday and found that the throttle linkage was not actually "Frozen" but rather immobilized because the knurled cap ( used for sensitivity adjustment? ) was screwed all the way in. After backing the cap out...
So tonight I had a few minutes to poke around on youtube and found a video of a guy rebuilding one of these pumps. It looks like for starters I have a throttle shaft problem.
The plates with the high / low idle screws in it as well as the "Hook" inside the pump appear as if they should be moving...
Hello Guy, I received the penta lobe bits today and got the cover off the IP. the fuel solenoid and the control lever all seems to be working fine.
What does not appear to be working correctly is the throttle lever and linkages.
From the inside of the IP, the governor rod assembly and the...
The IP looks pretty old, stained and original, but anything is possible. I tried to take it apart after work today but struck out... They aren't tamper resistant Torx, turns out they are Pentalobe security bolts, 5 point ( not 6 point torx ) with center pin, so I just ordered a bit set, so...
Got it. I was able to check the solenoid last night ( in between dodging thunder storms ) and I'm getting 24V on the 2 wires. So opening up the IP cover is my next step.
Looks like it has tamper resistant torx screws but I have a set somewhere!
Thanks again!
Correct Jim, both pistons move in unison, so removing the oil filler cap will result in huge pulsations that could easily be confused as excess blow-by.
If you were loosing compression the motor would probably smoke for 30 seconds or more at start up. Load the machine up and if it performs...
Thank you Guy, yes that's what I have. The lever is not wired up at all, so I'll take care of that. First I'm going to test the solenoid, if that seems ok I'll take off the cover and see if everything inside is moving freely and l'll clean the check valve while I'm in there. Might be a week or...
Hello all, so I just acquired a Mep-005A from a local National Guard base and it appears to have this same issue of no fuel coming from the injection pump.
After reading this thread I now understand what to look for initially and how to test everything. My question to those with experience is...
Maybe we should revert back to the CVT1 test? I know you mentioned some readings were close, but not quite within spec. I'm not looking at the TM at the moment, but I believe you need to disconnect all the wires before measuring. Then, maybe telling us which pairs were off and by how far were...
Hello, Sorry if you misunderstood my suggestion, I was suggesting you just loosen the long rods that hold the switch assembly together so that you can spray contact cleaner into the switch's separate sections. I didn't want you to remove the switch, however it seems that may have led you to find...
There aren't any "gaskets" between the pump and the engine block, only the shims. But... either way, there is only engine oil present in that area, not fuel.
If you're leaking fuel over there it's gotta be either the supply line, injector line or the lift pump itself. There's no physical way to...
What are you getting for AC voltage when you test the DC charging circuit? If by chance you end up needing a blower wheel.... I know where you can get one...:wink:
Let me know when the package arrives... So much for USPS 2 day delivery!
Yea, kind of sounds more like cavitation. I thought green antifreeze was correct for iron engines ( as well as others ) and all these other orange, pink, red, yellow etc. were all different manufacturers "Solutions" for aluminum heads and all aluminum engines?
I just use plain old green Prestone...
