    MEP 803 return fuel line fittings

    Just use hose clamps on both ends of the new fuel lines, quick and easy. Remove the rotten hose off the hard fuel line barb and the metering pump barb, and replace with line of your choice. I use gates safety stripe. The numbers and diameters are in one of these threads for certain.

    Mep-803a water pump and stuck all the way to left fuel gauge

    The well will leak... Just a matter of time. Could be next month, could be six years from now, but it will.

    Mep-803a water pump and stuck all the way to left fuel gauge

    It doesn't by that part number, but the seller is bundling them together... which is nice. Since you are already there, no sense in not refreshing all the gaskets/seals related to the pump.

    Mep-803a water pump and stuck all the way to left fuel gauge

    When you say the 'backing plate', I assume you mean call out #13? As you can see there is a plate to manifold gasket. If it were me, I would replace the water pump gasket, the gasket for the plate to manifold, and both O rings on the sleeve into the block.

    Something every MEP TQG owner should undertake... rodent proofing

    I see small zip ties on the inner grating.

    Anyone know of TMs for this (PowerSystems International DRASH Shelter Transport Trailer)?

    MEP-803A Will no longer start seems to be fuel issue not sure how.

    Don't forget the crank pulley is a LH thread!

    MEP-803A Will no longer start seems to be fuel issue not sure how.

    Even if you get the cover off, its going to be easier to see what you are working on from straight on... not around a corner and from the side.

    MEP-803A Will no longer start seems to be fuel issue not sure how.

    Or wedge the flywheel through the exterior metal lattice thats visible in that photo above, at multiple locations. But if you are not rotating the crank (which with the drive pulley and belt off, little chance of that) and only pulling the cover to articulate the FSS armature, the timing should...

    Hertz gauge jumping mep804a

    I assume there is a frequency transducer like the 802/803 units, and probably in the TM for this machine is a testing diag for this part. The gauge will not effect performance of the machine, the gauges are there for operator knowledge only.

    MEP-803A Will no longer start seems to be fuel issue not sure how.

    Older photos of a machine I had here... needed to change the front oil seal, but same issue with accessing the front of the engine. Just pull it, the effort will offset the frustration

    MEP-803A Will no longer start seems to be fuel issue not sure how.

    You are going to wish you did remove the end of the machine. If you remove the (2) plastic fan guards, and unbolt all of the bolts along the lower edge of the whole rear sheet metal assembly (engine bay, and hidden to either side of the fuel tank... gotta pull that panel), after the radiator is...

    Mep-002a engine

    I can help you source a complete machine as well, but I fear the freight would be the killer.

    Mep-002a engine

    Auction buy, missing parts

    This post is better served in the parts wanted section. I am sure when @Guyfang returns he will kick it over there for you. In the mean time, @CallMeColt may have what you are looking for. GMG wants over $200 for a new one. Ive seen supposed 'equivalents' around 175 online.

    Unused wires on mep 803a

    I would find the problem, versus gut the machine. You also gut any potential resale value should you ever need to move it out. I know personally that if I knew of such a 'wire delete' I would question the why and pass on the machine.
