So far, only had a chance to check MPU. It had some debris on it, but no damage. I think it wasn't adjusted correctly before I removed it. When I reinstalled it and adjusted it, my meter was reading 2.8-3.0VAC. Still didn't start. I still think it's a fuel flow issue, but will conduct...

I have the attached info, as well as the process for removing, installing, and adjusting the MPU. What is the original source of the attached? If it's in a TM or other available document, please advise. I'd like to have any info that comes before and after.

I’m not being negative. Just a little frustrated I suppose. I have all the TMs and have adjusted the MPU on other units. I’ve been working on this one on and off for over a year, so I don’t remember if I checked the MPU output. I don’t know what the Quad Mod is. I will check the MPU next week...

Full transparency - I haven’t all 319 pages of threads about generators on SS. I, also, haven’t scoured the TMs - yet. (Probably could have during my surgery recovery, but my mind was on other things.) With that said, our museum has an MEP804A that cranks, but won't start (never has in the 2...

Already replaced it, and the generator is working. Was just inquiring. Really sounds like the idea is not worth pursuing. Thanks.

Kurt fixed me up. I was just asking to see if anyone tinkered with restoring these. Thanks.

Is there anyone out there who repairs HMMWV transmission control modules to original specifications?

I know there are alternatives for the original voltage regulator in a MEP 804-A generator. I already purchased the alternative. Just asking the question. Is there anyone out there who repairs these to original specifications?

I'm a little late to the party, but I have a question. Did servicing and adjusting the MPU fix your generator's "run away" issue?

Thanks again. Didn't realize your "unplug the fault indicator" instruction was addressing that clicking issue. @Light in the Dark - looking for replacement gauges

Separate subject - replacement gauges. I need one (1) 88-21103 fuel gauge for a 5Kw and one 88-21104 oil pressure gauge for a 15Kw. Saw this posting for fuel gauges - https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/mep-fuel-gauge-fits-5-200kw-gensets-88-21103-beede-945331-6625-01-366-0193-70-ea.199406/...

Ok, did part of what you suggested. ( No, I haven't read through the entire TM.) I followed your process on both 804As of trying to get fuel up to the injectors to get the units started. I know there is fuel up to the injector pump on both. When I push to priming pump, I hear what sounds...

See photo for possible answer to your lead-off question.

Reset fault indicator - missed that bright red light somehow - all is well now. THANKS!

Thanks for the great info. Learning more every day.

I don't know what the correct name for the switch that indicates which legs - L1, L2, L3 - are selected. No, I didn't reset the fault indicator.

No photos or video necessary. I must have been hearing things when I operated the switch. No pump noise in the prime position. I stand corrected, sir. Thanks. Now for another issue with the 804B. Runs great. Connected an ECU to it. During first test, everything seemed to run fine and...

All that CTIS info was background to let you guys know what I was doing at the time. The CTIS is working now. The point of the posting was in relation to the smoke coming from the dash.

I'll see about photos and video.

I was finally able to circle back to working on our 15KW gen sets. We have two (2) 804As and one (1) 804B. One (1) each 804A and 804B are skid-mounted. The other 804A is skid mounted. When I start the two skid-mounted units, they both have an electric pump that you can hear running in the two...
