    MEP-803a, runs, but a couple quirks

    Howdy, Here are some of my oil pressure readings during some load bank runs. Acquired a Military surplus load bank for a MEP-802A and MEP-803A. They all start high and drop down during hard loading. Hot oil thins out some. They go back up too when cooling.

    MEP-803a, runs, but a couple quirks

Then when I start cooling the units off, the oil pressure rises. Just check that you oil level is to the full mark when idle.
