    MEP803a Marked 'JP Fuel Only"?

    No sweat... people read the word 'jet' and suddenly think $$ fuel costs. In my stored fuel, I use a combination of things. Stabilizer - https://www.amazon.com/PRI-D-Fuel-Stabilizer-Diesel-32oz/dp/B007ETLKG8 Algaecide/Biocide -...

    MEP 802 suddenly stops running

    Time to buy a guitar and start learning then, if you dont already know. I can't even imagine being down as long as you have.

    CL is funny... truly a terrible selling medium. But its pretty much what we are stuck with. Glad you found a buyer all the same.

    MEP 802 suddenly stops running

    "It's time to make the donuts", as the locals say. Is this machine the green one I see down past Mashpee? Ive sold many 802s over the years at 2850... but definitely not lately.

    No, there are definitely stupid questions. This one just doesn't happen to be one ;)

    MEP 802 suddenly stops running

    If corrosion was the concern, you (or the new owner) should really take some Deoxit and flush that and all of the other multiposition switches in the machines (requires the cover coming off). If it was corrosion, you just temporarily made it work again. The Deoxit should clean the contacts much...

    New to me MEP-803a Needs replacement radiator

    Knowing what info is in each of the manuals will aid you greatly in the future for quick troubleshooting, or identification of parts required. They can be overwhelming for a new owner, but almost everything​ you need to know, is contained in their pages.

    New to me MEP-803a Needs replacement radiator

    It depends on the machine, and how good the price was. Mucho money has been made parting out units... how do you think we fix them? Not all parts are available new :) My personal 802 parts machine was purchased as a runner, but became a parts unit. Didn't have much choice in my case, but many...

    New to me MEP-803a Needs replacement radiator

    I would definitely see if it can be repaired first. I have a radiator out of an 802 (believe its the same no matter if its an 802, or 803... not checking the TMs at the moment) but I know it had a small area with a little green oxidation buildup, so it might have a pinhole leak. In looking up...

    New mep-803a control panel wiring problem?

    Yeah, you need to take the top off to make sure there are no abandoned nests behind the S8 panel wall (mice LOVE to nest up in here), and then undertake pest mitigation efforts to not allow them to return. I agree that there is sign of pests in one of the shots you took.

    And let's be honest, its not the heat that makes you a good man here. Its the lack of fire watch! I mean, maybe the heat a little bit... ;)

    Load Bank?

    If I didnt already have the log cradle, 10" fan, and some other things... thats what I would have done. Lord knows my garage sucks in New England winters trying to wrench on these things. Considering changing up the input wiring or maybe terminating to a locking wall plug, so I can use the load...
