I have experienced deteriorated rubber lines to the lift pumps, but not in the same frequency as the return lines. Those fail all the time.

Yes pull the rear fuel tank cover, so you can see where the return dumps into the tank. Pull the return line from the tank and pull back through the cabinet into the engine bay. Replace all return line South of the hard metal line with new. Replace the Ts only if you need to. Use zip ties to...

I don't... but its a rather low pressure line.

The fuel return is easy. The line consists of what you see, plus some 1/8" vacuum tees up at the injectors, and small lengths of line. Check out this thread: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/mep-80x-fuel-return-line.166040/ I use the Gates safety stripe in my return line replacements.

Yes the OP will want a soft start kit, not a hard start.

If you are looking for a sync box I have one, complete with cables. It is untested by me, but includes testing paperwork from the depot saying it was tested in 2015. If you are interested, send me a private message. Thanks

Whats your local code call for? Do you care about that? I don't pull permits, so Im the wrong guy on that one.

802 with one of Kurt's remote start kits gets my vote for your needs: https://steelsoldiers.com/threads/mep-802-mep-803a-remote-start-kits.190193/#post-2360248

The guys in PA are top notch when it comes to loading, in my history. I've had some NG guys crunch up tail lights and stuff on me before @ Ft Drum, but no issues ever out of PA.

Gotta love folks with fork lifts (...one of the units here right now):

I don't believe you will be able to. You see the code 'XDOZZ'? That normally means cannibalization only. See attached.

Not an excuse for the factory, but 2012 was the end of their contract. They weren't going to be reordering data plates for a contract that was about to end... so I can see how someone would have approved the plate installation (versus none... as the build calls out a plate there).

You will probably find the batteries are crap, even though never used. Look forward to updates when you do get it fired, or if you need any assistance.

They will have no issue at all putting one in the bed... nice guys onsite in PA.

The data plate with the NSN was correct, it was the data plate for the fuel/altitude ratings. Here is the listing for this chap: https://www.govplanet.com/for-sale/Generator-Sets-Fermont-MEP-803A-10kW-Gen-Set-Georgia/4219005

I saw that one, looks to be a nice unit. Let us know.

That data plate is wrong from the factory... you got lucky on this one. The genhead is shown as 60hz, all gauges the same, and the front of the machine has a convenience outlet (the 400hz machines do not). Data plate mixups are rare, but are documented.

Since the auction is over, you can post about it. What was the auction item number, or do you have a direct link?

And I want to go on record has stating I hate the stock well nut design (and placements). I just had to half disassemble a 2 hour tier reset 802 to replace one (grey too....).

For those that dont want to give Bezos any more of their money, it can be found on the big auction site for the same price, free shipping under the search phrase " 10897 Ace Roto-Mold 1/4" Brass Bulkhead Fitting (Includes Viton O-Ring) "
