    new to me MEP003a - question on fuel delivery

    I took it back this morning. If it were spring, and I didn't already have a hundred projects, and I didn't have a running genny that's almost big enough, oh - and if the wife wasn't reminding me that Christmas is in two weeks and I was gonna sell the 002 by then... WAF will get a guy every...

    new to me MEP003a - question on fuel delivery

    Auction house asked me not to do too much until they talk to the guy again. Intake heater IS working, and I've gotten flashover in the past. I wouldn't want that in an air cleaner can this big - being careful. I did take the endcap of the IP - plunger works. I'm getting white smoke out of the...

    new to me MEP003a - question on fuel delivery

Schematic shows solenoid on output of E1 - tank is plumbed to solenoid. Even if they had the right tank port they were...

    new to me MEP003a - question on fuel delivery

    "it sounds like the line coming from the tank is actually where the fuel would have been pumped into the day tank from a larger storage tank." Absolutely correct. What I forgot to mention in my previous post is I've got a 002 that I've had for several years. I know how this SHOULD be plumbed...

    new to me MEP003a - question on fuel delivery

    Good morning all - I recently won a MEP003a at a local auction, which I picked up yesterday. 990 hours, looks like it spent a good portion of it's life outside, but not in bad shape considering... Question is on fuel delivery - auction house listed the unit as "running". Brand new fuel line...
