    Any modern parts for an Mep-002 tank?

    I do believe that would put you in the minority, based on my experience with military procurement. Hats off to you.

    Any modern parts for an Mep-002 tank?

    I provide products and services to these folks: http://www.navsea.navy.mil/Home/RMC/MARMC/2MMTR.aspx Nothing in the modern fleet with electronic components to fail. HAHA. My products are used both on ship and shoreside, as well as in the schoolhouses to train the next generations of techs.

    Any modern parts for an Mep-002 tank?

    I do a lot of business with NAVSEA and NAVAIR... they have this funny term called 'clean up money' that relates to their spend it or lose it budgets. If only folks knew the bottomless hole that is contracting...

    Any modern parts for an Mep-002 tank?

    So the Rochester part number appears to be 8680-L14. This is not exact (as I assume the 14 relates to tank depth)... but they do have a 12" deep model commerically available: https://www.jmesales.com/rochester-gauges-8680-top-mounting-magnetic-liquid-level-generator-tank-gauges-11-1-4-12/ I bid...

    Any modern parts for an Mep-002 tank?

    You're a good man, Charlie Brown! The line diagram in the 24P for this set is lacking... the copy I have (and the copies I have seen) have lines and a chart... but no numbers or letters to correspond to the components. I know there are descriptions, but **** are the manuals better for the later...

    Any modern parts for an Mep-002 tank?

    Sorry... talking to myself while you all slumber ;) How about something like this? http://www.kelch.com/products/view/utility-250-cap-and-gauge I will need to determine the size opening, and OAL of the mil-spec unit... but I think something like this might be a drop in replacement?

    Any modern parts for an Mep-002 tank?

    And of course I will have to finish disassembling the tank to see if the float switch is in equally impressive condition, but I at least I want to get an idea of what I am looking at as I get one of the two sets operational.

    Any modern parts for an Mep-002 tank?

    One of the 002s I got out of TX a few weeks back has a tank that is thoroughly rusted on the interior (the set seems to be triple rinsed 3+ years ago, based on verbiage spray painted onto it). Good going guys! So I was in the midst of taking the tank off the other unit I have, to see if I can...
