    MEP-803A Fuel Pump Rack Setting Gage (Gauge)

    According to the 253-24, you need one of these to hold the governor lever in the shutdown position when reinstalling the injection pumps. Do I really need it? Can I make one?

    MEP-803A Injector Thread Size

    Anyone know what the thread pitch is on the 803A injectors (or injection pumps)? I'm building a bottle jack injector tester and I need to know what size fitting to get.

    MEP-803A Head Gasket Consolidation?

    Have all the head gaskets for the MEP-803A been superseded by just the 1.47mm one (168-6112)? That's what I'm finding online.

    MEP-803a seized engine

    Working through another MEP-803a. This one has a seized engine. When I engage the starter, I hear a solid clunk of the starter engaging the flywheel, but the engine doesn't turn. I can see the generator barely moves when the starter is engaged. Unit looks clean, no obvious problems, 1700...

    MEP-803A Injection Pump sticking

    I have a 1999 MEP-803a with 2300 hrs. One of the injection pumps (#4 cylinder, furthest from the engine fan) is sticking. The piston in the pump if very difficult to move up and down or rotate. The spring is not strong enough to pull the piston down to the bottom of the stroke. I've taken it...

    Timing problem on MEP-002A

    Gents, I have a MEP-002a that I checked the timing on using the PC method. The port doesn't close until the PC mark is out of view (I'd say about 8 dashed lines from the PC mark). Is it possible for the IP to be so far out of whack? I just rebuilt the IP and it looks like is in good...
