Getting ready to plumb a 8135 pump and I need to know the size of both ends a the G-17 filter to connect it to the pump. I don't do this type of plumbing with NPT, Jic, and NPSF fittings often so I have a learning curve. Also will teflon tape be good for diesel fuel?
Thanks
Does anybody have a source for the canister fuel filter gaskets? Changed the canister gasket and the Wix filter only came with the top outer bowl gasket, I reused the gasket for the top of the filter. Also is there a gasket for the bottom of the fuel bowl where the bolt goes through.
I am going to clean out my fuel tank because the tube with the screen filter is rusted. I want to replace the fuel sender with the Wema style sender, I thought I saw a thread on the part number to do this but I can only find the info fro an 802. If anyone has done this do you have the part...
Just did 4 days with power outage from the hurricane and my 803 did perfect, best thing I ever did was installing an EasyStart on my A/C unit, it brought the starting amps for the A/C down to 26 amps.
The 803 used about 3/4 gallon an hour I ran everything including the well, I didn't use the...
Had to use my MEP 803 after some bad weather in Houston, went to shut down generator to check the oil and make sure everything was good. The generator was running perfectly but it would not restart, I noticed the fuel solenoid in the forward position so I pulled it back and it cranked right up...
Well it was cold here at 19 degrees, I didn't loose power but when I went to check out the generator an start it up the hinges on the front cover were frozen. Had had to pour hot water on the hinge to get it open, I guess I'll cover it tonight just encase I need it tonight. That won't happen...
Hello, I am looking to buy a 1946 CJ2A jeep, the guy says it has a rear main leak. What would be involved in replacing the seal? Is it a difficult repair? Would I need to remove the trans?
Thx
Wanted to get a license plate for my 803 that's mounted on a PU 798 trailer, after all the time and money I spent and for as little as I am going to tow this thing on the streets I would have been better just paying the ticket if I got pulled over. Lessons learned!
I have a 803 on a PU-798a trailer and I am trying to identify what this is in the picture and what is it used for. I searched the very long TM on the trailer but it was not mentioned. I've had this unit almost a year and haven't noticed it that square box, on the back side it is not connected to...
Ok, I know that if I am running my 803 that's on the trailer that it came with and I am connected to my house that I remove the bond from the nuetral to ground and it wired to use the house ground. I also know if I am using the 803 as a stand alone say with 120 volts and extension cords out in a...
This seems obvious to me but I may be wrong. My 803 fuel gauge shows full all the time with power and when the unit is off. It does move at all anytime. To me that seems like a bad gauge. What do you think?
Looks like I'm going to get to use my 803 for the hurricane, my question is if I run it out of fuel by mistake will it self prime and restart? Or is there something I need to do to get it running again?
Does anyone know the name of this shelter or container? It cranks up and the tag says cargo bed cover type Iva1. I can't read the rest of the info. I'd like to purchase one!
Hello, I need to paint a generator green with the Behr paint, Home depot doesn't know when their paint will go on sale, can this be a thread when the paint from Home Depot goes on sale this summer somebody will let us know? I hate to have to pay full price for this stuff!!
Thanks
Ok I have been searching for an hour and I can not find what size the fitting is for the auxiliary fuel connection on the 803. I believe I read is was an AN fitting but don't remember the size! Any help?
Thanks
I would like to have my 803 up and running for this winters outages, the problem is I need a voltage regulator. I have a guy that thinks he can fix mine but he's had it for 3 months. I've been looking around and have got quotes from $450 to $1,400 dollars. Tried to buy one used but I was a day...
I need to power a 12volt DC motor for a cord reel that I want to mount on my 803 with trailer. Can I take 12volts from one of the batteries on my unit?
