Yes, I see what you mean. I finally found a picture of the rod. It is more than just a rod. I'm starting to think I may just part this machine out. Probably get more than my money back that way. At least break even. Large boat anchor!
More pieces and parts missing. I can make this rod assembly I think. I have a bunch of small tie-rod ends and threaded rod in stainless, Anyone know the approx. length of this rod including ends? I can guess but knowing is much better, for sure.

Hello all. New from NW Florida with an MEP002A I bought for $300 off Craigslist. The control box and connection box is missing from it. All the cannon plug connectors are still on it. Engine turns over freely . My first question is: If I make sure all loose wires from the gen head are taped up...
