For an additional 85 cents worth of hardware cloth, you should cover them (but the batteries do block them).

If you move quick, you can get a used adapter on the cheap (and source your own threaded red brass pipe) https://greenmountaingenerators.com/product/military-fuel-drum-adapter-nsn-2910-00-066-1235/

Yup, thats the one I remember. Thanks sir.

In laws coming over soon, and need some thorough reading so as to avoid them? https://www.wbdg.org/FFC/NAVFAC/DMMHNAV/hdbk419a_vol1.pdf ;) I would absolutely be grounding that puppy for safety reasons! Takes but a second for it to all go horribly wrong. Its a real good document to peruse...

By the photo... how exactly does that work?

The answer is... whatever you want.

They are 3PH machines only, versus 1/3PH selectable like the 803 and smaller. Yes, you can tap two of three legs, but then you are back to the output of the 803 (and not better off for it). Do you have a need for 3PH power only?

I had to use the biggest pair of adjustable vice grips I had to wrestle one off yesterday, threw the slip filter wrench in the trash I was so fed up with it. I'll give the pliers a go. Thanks

Suppose while I'm thinking of it... has anyone found a filter wrench worth a ****?

I'd like to find a filter with a hex end, so I can stop using these stupid fuel filter slip wrenches. I HATE them.

At least you are putting the time in reading them though. You will find there will be an 'ah ha!' moment, and suddenly the TMs will suddenly not be so overwhelming and mysterious.

Last time I did a big filter buy, I went through Fleet Filter (www.fleetfilter.com). I see prices are up (shocker) but they do run sales on occasion https://www.fleetfilter.com/filter/51374.html https://www.fleetfilter.com/filter/33348.html I will check out Rock Auto the next go round.

How old is the unit, and how many hours are on it? What condition are the fuel lines going into the cylinders? Sometimes they swell... which causes intermittent fuel starving too.

Welcome to SS. When you say surges... are you talking about the RPM of the engine, or the gauges? Does it surge when hooked to a static load (like the 5kw heater) or when hooked to a load that is able to be changed? If you aren't sure... hook it to the static 5kw load and see if it repeats...

Well I lucked out... I actually hid the set in the tool box of my own PU797C! Thanks everyone.

I will, when they come in. Tentative drop date is this coming Friday. Thanks for the above info Guy. Time to go peek through the garage...

I have (2) LTT-TQG trailers coming in this week, and need to put (1) 803A on one for a pickup next weekend (the other will be used down the line). I appreciate the offer Bob. If you just want to measure them, that will help just as much (Can have some arrive next business day by MSC/Fastenal...

Does anyone know the bolt size for the trailer mounted MEP units? I had dismounted one previously... and can't seem to find where I squirreled them away to. I definitely see them called out in the TM 9-6115-659-13&P, but not unique identifier info. Thanks for your help.

Thanks for the clarification! And a followup, the big auction site seller took a $5 offer on the part, plus freight. ;)

That is good to know. The newer valves with T handle on the 80x series are nicer than the older valves.
