    MEP-802A questions

    The large hose (which comes out the top of the coolant overflow tank) ties into (2) other drain lines... one off the petcock on the radiator, the other off the petcock on the front of the engine block. So three hoses should dump down and out the side of the skid base, when all is said and done...

    Here is how the hoses should be run. Shown is an 803, but same setup for the 802.

    Will discuss by PM for certain. Though for anyone interested in facts... an 802 muffler Bolts up perfectly on both sides. Hits the coolant side safety shroud, and the roof exit hole no longer lines up perfect... But they do bolt up identically.

    Im about to take the roof off an 803 in a few minutes (doing return line swap) I can compare to the 802 muffler on the shelf if you want.

    If you are needing to update filters, I would strongly suggest swapping out the stock canisters and going with @Ray70's fuel upgrades for the 00X machines. Well worth it for long term owners, and better filtering and EASIER changes! I tagged him, because Im not sure if they are up in the...

    Unfortunately I only have (2) 802 mufflers, with wrap. I think the primary difference is the side below the exhaust exit... that bracket hole pattern is a little bit different on the 803s (Because it spans the cylinders differently than the 802s). The business side, that mounts to the manifold...

    What does your hertz gauge register? Because its doesn't sound like its running at the right speed still... it sounds underspeed.

    There is a battery wiring diagram plate on one of the doors in the machine, as well as in the TM.

    https://www.steelsoldiers.com/#technical-manuals.95 Have you made sure there is no 'trash' in the tank which could be restricting flow? How about the lines from the tank all the way to the injection pump... how do they look? Any crushed, distorted, or otherwise not OK looking? How about the...

    Is this a new to you machine? Have you seen it run properly before this? Are your batteries topped off? Have you changed out the water seperator and fuel filters, and cleaned the bottoms of the fuel pumps out? Do you have (2) original primary pumps, plus (1) aux pump still in place?

    Biodiesel for MEP802/803

    You may need to upgrade the lines (and you may have issues with the floats in the day tank), but according to Lister Petter you can: ▪ Diesel fuelled and approved for operation on biodiesel, that conforms with ASTM D6751 and EN14214, concentrations of up to 20%...

    Are all the well nuts on the fuel tank the same size?

    The side well nut is the same as the top well nut if you look at the TMs. https://www.tank-depot.com/1-4-brass-bulkhead-fitting-includes-viton-o-ring-a-10897 https://www.usplastic.com/catalog/item.aspx?itemid=46224&catid=578

    I think I saw this unit on marketplace at a scrap yard in NJ. I think if you want the genset, you wont find prices going the other way. Nor will you necessarily find the pumps to ever be cheaper. If you are intending on getting it running, I would do so while you are still in the frame of mind...

    Good running 10KWs are not cheap today. If you've never seen this run right or make power... was it advertised as such? Did you buy this private party or auction? Pick your poison.
