    Stuck Fan Clutch

    The alternative, I believe, is to remove the allen screws and take off the clutch. I tried to fit the allen wrench though the big holes but cant find the screws. They are 5/16 allen if I recall the other post i read. I have never removed one on a humvee but do happen to have another spare...

    Stuck Fan Clutch

    I am not trying to remove the clutch per se. The nut is where the line from the cadillac valve connects. I believe it has a washer with a detent in the slot as per the manual. If I remove the nut, the bulb can be pulled out exposing the piston and seals that usually leak. I removed the hose and...

    Stuck Fan Clutch

    My 2 cents. I had a similar issue not long ago where the fan clutch would not engage. All the electronics in the cooling systems tested great. In the end it was a bad hose from the cadillac valve to the fan clutch. They had swapped the hose and did not use a hydraulic replacement. This caused...

    Stuck Fan Clutch

    Howdy, my A2 was plundered and came with an old v belt fan that caused overheating. I am currently replacing the fan the hard way and am unable to remove the fan clutch which works properly I might add. The 1/2 nut keeps on spinning even when I apply the 90 psi to the line to engage the...

    Mep-805a- 30kw generator

    Yes, clean contacts on all three. Should clear your issue. If not look at the relay in the conyrol panel.

    Mep-805a- 30kw generator

    Specifically F1 and F2. Mine had a snapped terminal that looked good till you wiggled it.

    Mep-803a Diesel leak

    I must disagree here. I used to turn the can and what would often happen is the O ring slipped out of the groove and got pinched thus causing a leak. What works for me is using a little axle grease to keep the O ring squarley in place and tighten the bolt wihile holding the cup in place. Most...

    Mep-805a- 30kw generator

    Sometimes cleaning the terminals connected to the transformer located above the connection box helps with these issues and avoids false readings. I do it to all units I refurb and its all but eliminated under/over volt errors.

    MEP006A

    No power at injection pump

    I put in a new camotek start box thinking that was the issue but still does the same. Will check the connectors. Thanks

    No power at injection pump

    So i measure voltage at top soleniod and only get 5 vdc and will not start. I changed start switch for a new one and the issue persists. If i apply 24v from the alt/generator it will start right up and run with no issues. Any pointers?

    MEP1040 fuel tank sender?

    Webiste looks like it has not been updated since 2001. I tried to look for pricing but no luck.

    MEP-803A Crank But No Start

    Ive had luck resurrecting stuck pumps by leaving them in parts cleaner over night and then running them submerged in it. A few taps can rock it loose.. My 2 cents.

    MEP1040 fuel tank sender?

    The only part bad on my 1040 was the fuel level sensor. I had read there was a recall on the original part and a replacement was issued. I could not source the new part anywhere so I found the original on fleebay and its been working fine for more than a year. Original Fuel sending unit part...

    Mep 806a is making me look bad

    So I got this 806a off auction and its kicking my arse. I know not to trust meters but its probably right at 50 hours since i does not run right. Let me explain. After adjusting the governor, since it had a temperamental actuator, i got her to run steady and produce power. After a few seconds of...
