    MEP802A 12V Generator

    Just a thought. Ditch the alternator entirely. Put a 24V battery charger on the batteries, plugged into the house when not in use and plugged into the genset when in use.

    MEP802A 12V Generator

    Guages, switches, starter, internal wiring is all set up for 24V. Why convert? 12V will use twice the amperage for the same energy...

    Trailer question

    Varies by state. Generally trailers are not nearly as much trouble as trucks. And few trucks are as much trouble as HMMWVs.

    Fuel System Troubleshooting and final resolution (IT WAS THE SOCK)

    I didn't remove the sock. I see no compelling reason to alter the fuel system from stock at this point. I cleaned the tank and the sock, dumped the contaminated fuel, and applied biocide to prevent recurrence. I plan to proactively open and reinspect the tank to see if there's any...

    Fuel System Troubleshooting and final resolution (IT WAS THE SOCK)

    Agreed. I was biased in favor of the lift pump due to a similar experience with an M936A2 that was the lift pump. And a buddy's M923 where we dropped the tank and thoroughly cleaned it, and the dirty tank was not the culprit. Again, thanks everyone who contributed.

    Fuel System Troubleshooting and final resolution (IT WAS THE SOCK)

    Fuel System Troubleshooting and final resolution (IT WAS THE SOCK)

    RESOLVED! IT WAS THE SOCK! I drove It 7mi each way to the fuel station and filled it, after cleaning the tank. I've been driving this truck since 2017. Never a hiccup until now. I suspect there was life in the tank. The fuel had not been sitting , but was nearly opaque green. (My...

    Fuel System Troubleshooting and final resolution (IT WAS THE SOCK)

    Keep the factory filter to catch anything missed by the first filter. Make the first filter spin on and rather coarse.

    Fuel System Troubleshooting and final resolution (IT WAS THE SOCK)

    What kind of funds do I need to set aside to make that happen?
