    MEP-802A Starts Intermittently

    Guy and others following... It runs again! :clinto: I ended up popping the top cover off, muffler and air cleaner for better access to the injectors and IP's. I then marked the sides of the IPs and the top shims with nail polish to mark where they were adjusted to. When it last ran I knew the...

    Guy, I hope the grandson is on the mend. Thx for the info on the possibility of the injectors jumping out of the rack. Will pull them, inspect and post up what I find.

    Just keeps getting worse. Now the rack won't move to the right even when pressed upon.

    MEP-802A Starts Intermittently

    Found that the fuel rack isn't sliding right when the shutoff solenoid retracts to the run position. If I reach thru the hole for the droop adjustment and push a bit on the rack it pops to the right. Seems there is a bit of friction for a fraction of and inch and then it slides free. I can get...

    MEP-802A Starts Intermittently

    It has the original Facet cube fuel pump. That failing was my first thought that's why I checked for good flow at the return line. I do have an Airtex E1074 as a spare so I could try popping that in and see. I'd expect the set to at least fire a few times when I get the no start issue due to...

    MEP-802A Starts Intermittently

    My 802A has developed an intermittent starting problem. It has me baffled. I've had it for about 4 years and has always promptly started. It gets used almost weekly to test products I build for the 802/803 such as the Remote Start and an "new" product. Today I was using the 802 to test...
