    Found time to pick up a super nice mep-802a today

    Ok thanks. I never have a topoff problem because I am pretty well stocked on those types of supplies and my business partner runs an auto shop too. It does get me thinking twice that I should probably stick with the standard green and add an SCA for the whole disaster preparedness part. I mean...

    I would but I give the NAPAs around here a run for their money. NAPA was my first stop when I got back into town yesterday. They didnt have any test strips, only showed 1 bottle of NAPAKOOL which they had the whole store looking for (5 people, it was a slow day and all deliveries were done) and...

    Sucks about the load bank. Ive had this since before I got into generators (ive been in gens for 3-4 years, military gens im brand new to), it was an onsite equipment auction and the auctioneer said "this here heater lets start the bidding at 50"... nobody took it, I held up 1 finger and nobody...

    Found time to pick up a super nice mep-802a today

    Interesting, no mentioning of cavitation or the chemicals that are normally used to combat cavitation, ie: nitrite, molybdate/nitrate, etc... A quick breeze through that I didnt recognize any of the other chemicals as being related to cavitation. Well since everything in the military is...

    Found time to pick up a super nice mep-802a today

    Yea Im not too crazy about the color, give me the green that is on the inside... Now some coolant questions. I was going to throw some DCA2 SCA (napakool) in and test the SCA levels, but then I started thinking. Why wouldnt I just remove all of the silicate based green coolant and install a...

    Ahh it was deere oil which I couldnt remember.... so does that mean I need to put a jager sticker on this thing? Great, I wont hear the end about it from my brother if he sees a deere product in my hands (he owns a deere, hates it, tractor has epa emission bs on it) As for syncing, I am aware...

    Found time to pick up a super nice mep-802a today

    Talked the yardkeeper into letting me come up on a weekend to pick up the gen I bought, except he didnt tell me that he was away and his wife wouldnt be helping me disconnect the trailer from the hmmwv and onto my truck. Luckily this trailer was a whole lot more balanced than the one I picked up...

    Why would someone buy this?

    And what really gets me because I spreadsheet and watch all of GP's mep 5s and 10s, I was watching the 400hz units were pulling more money than the equivalent 60hz units maybe 4-6 weeks ago. I dont get it. Maybe people with a crapton of incandescent lights? Like I can understand parts units but...

    Just picked up an MEP-803a

    I agree, but with my time constraints I havent been able to yet (I still have my hurricane shutters up from Irma.) Once I get that time and I am ready to revisit it ill post a thread so Im not stealing this one. I have a machine shop, auto shop, heavy electrical background, etc... that means I...

    Just picked up an MEP-803a

    Hmm, good to know... Guess they want units in running condition before needing power regardless if it blows the unit up or not.... Wonder how many times some soldier who really needed power jumped the starter like I did.... At least theres nothing to fix on that circuit. Thanks for the info.

    Just picked up an MEP-803a

    Ahh the Fort Stewart unit. I watched it go, wasnt on my bid list but I am curious on how it runs (I got a 802A non-running from Fort Gordon a few weeks prior that runs great and a 3 hour running unit I havent picked up yet)... I am always curious on whats wrong with the non-runners. Ill share...
