    The MEP003 is a 4cyl diesel. Don't know the HP or engine model #. ??? Maybe JD and Onan have divorced, JD does that very frequently (they purchase a very large part of their product line from many companies around the world). Onan is not out of business. associated point on onan engine parts...
