I bought my MEP-804a mostly for the three phase power. I have a large air compressor that runs with either a 15hp or 20 hp engine. I may get a 15 hp electric motor to power it, I have not quite made up my mind yet. I also have large woodworking equipment on three phase. So far, my phase...

I did actually think of that. The top of the pump that unscrews and pops up has a square type ring gasket underneath that should seal when screwed down. I made sure to get the top tight this time and it has worked so far. Perhaps before, I did not get it tight enough to seal. Robert

It quit again after the above post. I really can't figure it out and the TMs do not talk about the Zexel mechanical transfer pump, just the electrical ones. I think my main problem lies with the hand pump (pointing at it with pen in a photo above). I took it off and can not see any way to...

I took the fuel pump apart and did not see any problems. Reassembled pump and placed back on the engine. I tried to bleed the air out of the lines using the manual pump feature on the pump but did not feel solid pumping action. I used a fuel bulb to draw fuel through the pump and tried to...

My 804a quit running the other day. It sounded like it ran out of fuel, it started to surge and then it died. I first thought that the fuel had been stolen but not the case. I bought this unit recently with 46 hrs on it and had put on around 5 with no problems. As mentioned above, mine has a...

I used my 804A this weekend to run my 208V single phase motor on my MX-2 steam cleaner. I used L1 & L2. Attached is a scan from the TM where it talks about single phase. It does warn to balance the loads to avoid damage. Robert

I ran my 804A this weekend to power one of my hot water/steam pressure washers. It needs 208V single phase so I used L1 and L2. Attached is a scan of the TM that came with the unit where it talks about single phase. It does note that the loads should be balanced when using single phase to...

I just picked up a MEP-804A generator from Ft Bragg this week. It was in a group of 4 that went off with the highest hours 113 and the lowest 46. These are 3 phase only 120/208V 52 amps or 240/416V 26 amps @ 60 Hz up to 15 kW. I went and looked at all 4 before the auction. One had a broken...
