My loadbank I've had for several years quit working last weekend. Today, I had the time to open her open. All the basics check out. Checked the contactor. Moves freely and there is 24v at the coil, but it's not kicking in. Little electromag give up the ghost? Very carefully with isolated...
So my Eco Hubs are mounted. I still need to relearn transmission, since it feels like all my shift points are now wrong, but other than that, I am super impressed. Took a 20min quick test drive, accelerates to 65 fairly quickly (GPS verified, I still need the correct setting on the switches...
Is there a fuel pump available for the H140? Mine seems to be unresponsive, not spinning up at all. Heater unit is like new, with only a couple hours on it...
New to me 2007 TMSS med. Getting things going when I noticed that the 2 above mentioned gauges don't reset to 0, even when fully disconnected. They behave as this is their 0. Meaning when full 18kw is engaged on ECU, it shows 23kws. Anyway to repair them?
I know with 803a series, I have seen...
Would anyone happen to know of a source for a HDT SHC heater controller? I have this nice clean SHC60 with very few hours on it and no way to fire it up (that I am aware that is)...
On a side note, for another unit, would anyone happen to know of a replacement for the Sediment Glass bowl?
I bought what appears to be a nice one, still have to test it properly. It is missing one of the corner fasteners. Anyone happen to know where to get one or what to even call it?
So I went to service the bearings on my Drash trailer unit, and wouldn't you know it, first wheel nut I touched, it sheared straight off. I salvaged all the other ones by using heat first and a thread tap to clean up the thread.
Now I need a new stud though. They appear to be longer than the...
Working on getting a canopy for my 1102. So, I have the bows, brackets, nice tarp and even one (the front) of the 3 plates.
My question is, were the plates added later.? The bows I got on a kit off another trailer, are not drilled for them... I did end up finding the front one on auction site...
Does anyone have a source for these? (outside sheet-metal MEP802/803 I believe and more)
Amazon has some but they are serrated and not exactly cheap... (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FFE8D5U). They also have the correct ones, but in packages of 2 or 3,000...
So I won a trailer, this time a DHS DRASH unit (8340014594352), trailer appears to be made in 2007 by NorthEast Fabricators, Walton New York. By the way, any idea where I can find a TM for the trailer and/or Isuzu generator set?
Anyhow, yard is about 100 miles away, and I was going to drive...
I picked up my second MEP803A this weekend. Unlike my first one, which was a Mint reset, this one is missing some bits, like a Fuel cut off solenoid and a Starter relay (the 1st one/spendy one). Does anyone have a cheaper source for parts on these, besides Greenmountain?
Fuel return lines were...
So my latest acquisition is an 1123 that needs a bunch of TLC.
So to address the no lights issue, I went looking for 15a in the back of the MLS three lever plug. I was actually confused for a minute, since I couldn't find it. Went around the plug several times, no 15a. So looked up manual, says...
I have been reading posts up and down, trying to get acquainted with what generator unit would fit my needs. I believe one or 2 (long-term) 803As would work well. My question was as far as picking one up from GP. As far as trailers, I have the option of my small 4x8 utility trailer which does...
So I am in the process of assembling/mounting an A2 style lightweight turret, with Black bearing. The Parts TM calls for 2 rubber seals to be used. One above and one below the turret bearing.
I figured out how to fit the top seal (slides right into groove on top of bearing). Where does the...
So my 1123 came with fording tubing kindly disconnected by, I assume, the demil dept. Everything is there, tubing is just laying loose.
How do you get to the back of the fording switch? I can't seem to get a look at it from either engine or cab side? Does the fuel filter need to come off to get...
