    MEP-802a Buying Guide?

    And.... I'm back. With no generator. After a bad start to testing when the owner snapped the knob off the master switch, we were able to get it started by removing the switch from the panel, and turning the remains with some pliers... Irritating, but not the end of the world, and I didn't...

    MEP-802a Buying Guide?

    Reading the -10 operating manual... Dated December 1992 Table 2-1 on page 2-3 lists the controls and such... For the AM-VM switch it lists: L3-L1 (1 Phase) as displaying Voltage of L3-L0, and Current as L3 L3-L0 (1 Phase) as displaying Voltage of L3-L0, and Current as L3 Am I loosing my mind...

    MEP-802a Buying Guide?

    I used to have the tires... Pretty sure my '97 Ram 2500 would have worked. Alas I sent that to a new home 6 months ago... Still have 2 like new tires for it, but no wheels to put them on at the moment. I'll have to check with the neighbor if he's back from sking before I head out... I think he...

    MEP-802a Buying Guide?

    That's good. Haven't read that one before. I'm sure I'm going to overthink the process, but better that than the alternative... Likely bring a good sized hammer, and dead blow too... Never like needing a hammer, but...

    MEP-802a Buying Guide?

    Excellent. Those are on the list already. Don't see the crank for the landing gear in the photos, so I'll be bringing a couple options to deal with that. Load lug wrench is in the photo, so that's good. Air compressor 4-1/2" bolt to disable the surge brakes if needed. lots of zip ties...

    MEP-802a Buying Guide?

    Yea, that's why I'l taking the back route, and staying away from I81 corridor... Sunday might, or might not help... Heater is a 240v (obviously). I'm going to put an L14-30 on there in hopes that is what is currently mounted on the unit (looks about right in the photo), but I'm perfectly...

    MEP-802a Buying Guide?

    Well, I'm back... I had kinda planned on one of the offers folks here have made, and I may still need to revisit that, but you know how these things go... I found an 802a on a trailer within striking distance. I'm heading there on the weekend to check it out, and potentially pull it home...

    MEP-802a Buying Guide?

    Well, like virtually everyone, I want a perfect running, showroom quality machine for the price of a dirty rag... That, not being very realistic, means I'm somewhat more accepting of compromise. I'm not looking to have to do an overhaul, or rewind a generator head. I've got more than enough...

    MEP-802a Buying Guide?

    Good morning... Or Afternoon... Or, whatever it may be for you. I did a quick search, without finding anything jumping out at me, and I'll continue to dig, but perhaps someone could point me to particular thread that's good... I'm in the market for an MEP-802a. While I'd love the capacity of...
