So here is a auto belt cross reference table:

Of course none of the Mfg. number cross - so we are still a step or two away from actually buying a belt.
Now THAT'S what I'm talking about!

I want to appreciate the offers to help but the generator is in the field at a remote site without skilled people available. Like a remote military base and the General wants the unit fixed now since there is incoming and asked me the (Lieutenant) who is located at another base to get the...
Ok, here is another tough one. We have a mission critical MEP-004 that starts and runs fine, so we power up the loads and it runs perfect for roughly 20-25 minutes then slowly drops to idle then eventually dies.
Work done:
complete fuel system cleaned (like three times), pulled float switch...
Wow, I guess SS is failing here in helping with real world problems. I keep forgetting this is a hobby site not a professional site! Anyway, since SS is not getting the job done best we move to other sites like Smoketack or any other suggestions. When you need heavy lifting problem solving and...
I've got one coming back from a customer - runs for 20 minutes then throws an oil pressure light. Not sure if you learned anything from the above - I'm assuming it is the sender, highly unlikely a real oil pressure problem.
That seems way high to me, most of the 004 go under $1000 in CA, tough to sell as well. Took me three years to move one and it is coming back for repair. The other I did the single phase conversion but can't sell it. Sounds like I need to consider shipping to you guys!
This unit is less than...
Anyone here of a new policy of pulling bottom radiator hose and oil filters off perfectly good generators? I've not seen this before but do know that in some cases fluids should be drained prior to shipment. Pulling hoses and filters seems excessive.
Let me know what may be new policy or is...
Did this project ever get completed? Would like to know, I get inquiries for this setup a few times a year and I always say we can do it but it could be expensive so it has never actually been purchased. You'd have to have have one very electrically large house to need this so usually a $699...
Ok, we (SanghaEnergy.org) did the side by side load test runs (MEP-004 converted to 240 and a 3 phase unit) and shot some video. Unfortunately limitations of the load test equipment left the results some inconclusive.
For converted MEP-004 (240 single phase) - we were able to get it to run and...
Ok, let me start by apologizing to sewerzuk for being an ass. Coming across as an ass happens more often than I'd like because of my writing style and never in person. But that is just an excuse for never learning to write English in an way that gets the message across without irritating people...
Ok, I get that my writing style falls far short of producing the desired effect and since I've managed to piss off a few good people I guess I better man up and deliver rather than ramp up the rhetoric. So I'll take that challenge if for no reason to prove myself wrong (based on the arguments to...
While no one can diminish your SS contribution and resourcefulness I do want you to be slightly more forthright with our audience. Your quote "My conversion process does not reduce the generator's capacity at all" is 100% false - maybe you should the time to explain in more detail. Yes, I know...
Can anyone confirm that a Wix 46272 & Napa 6272 Air Filter is a direct replacement for the NSN type air filter for the MEP-004, 005 and 006 ?
Those NSN air filter are getting pricey and I saw that someone used a Napa 6272 which is easily available - just want to confirm before I buy a case!

Ok we found it and thank you for the suggestions. Here is what we found after checking everything else...there is a screen at the end of the injection pump that was mostly clogged with gelled fuel. Photos attached. Where the fuel line goes into the injection pump it looks like a fitting but...
Anyone out there with more of these 20kw Hanco units? Looks like helicopter or air drop diesel generators?
Engine: Hatz 3M41Z
Hanco Generators are made by Southwest Products
Ok, so we go thru MEPs regularly so I asking for advanced help here - likely on fuel solenoids.
We have a MEP-004AAS that ran well three years ago, then the check valve clogged so we fixed that a year ago and it ran fine. Then we pulled it out this winter and no start. Cranks fine, we cleaned...
