    831a oil pressure switch problem solved

    My 831a has a Nason 1M-2B-15F/67 pressure switch with two terminals. The photos for both the 14 and 15psi switches described here look like there are 3 terminals. Have you received your order yet? How many terminals are there?

    looking at an 802A with 4000 hours

    The shingles vaccine is only 51% effective but still better than no vaccine. A new vaccine is on the horizon that is 90% effective. I hope you guys get better soon.

    GL Lost Surplus Contract

    Ritchie Bros hasn't had time to make many changes. What's the old saying about turning around a battleship? There are always going to be screw ups but at least as far as generators are concerned GP now gives a proper description and doesn't take photos of one generator and use them on multiple...

    GL Lost Surplus Contract

    I am Canadian and live 30 minutes from one of Ritchie Bros main auction sites. They are a world class auction company. I have bought from GL and GP in the past and from Ritchie Bros in Canada. I don't know how GL got the contract originally[ although I wonder] but from my experiences they were...

    electric governor on a MEP-831a

    If you can't get it adjusted. Kurt sells a very nice controller for a very reasonable price that doesn't need any adjustments at all. I highly recommend them.

    Anyone along the East Coast without power right now?

    Thanks Guyfang. I misread it. I thought it meant if the aux pump was switched on when fuel was low it would overflow the tank. I filled the tank turned on the aux pump and it shut off before it overflowed but at the same time I also lowered the upper Cclip on the sensor because it was up on the...

    Anyone along the East Coast without power right now?

    Guyfang in the "803a fuel level adjustment" thread, post # 43 this is what you advised me " When you tested the aux fuel pump, what position was the FL-1 and FL-2? If they were in the low/no fuel position, then the aux wont turn off."

    MEP-831A SLC100 Governor Controller Replacement Prototype

    Hi, I have been totally frustrated with new controllers I bought from GAC. I sent one back and got a replacement which worked fine and had the same thing happen on a second controller so I asked for a refund and ordered 2 controllers from Kurt. The cost for 2 controllers was only about 2/3 the...

    My Mep-803a standby generator project

    Are you sure you are looking at the fuel level float. It doesn't go straight up and down, the float acts on a pivot arm. Make sure the float almost touches the bottom of the tank when it is empty. There is a thread MEP803A fuel level adjustment that should help.

    Anyone along the East Coast without power right now?

    I don't know if the float system is similar to an 803 but when it happened on my 803 Guyfang advised that it won't shut off if you switch it when it is part full. I don't understand the theory. Hopefully he will explain.

    Winter Storm Preps

    The Lowther radar site was just west of us. It was part of the Pinetree early warning system. I remember the U.S troops when they came into town were all dressed in their white winter garb with huge white super insulated "moon boots". It seemed like most of them had southern accents. They must...

    Winter Storm Preps

    The Russian front must have been a horror show in the winter. My old neighbour was a German child soldier fighting the Russians at the end. He said the luckiest day of his life was when he was able to get to an Allied patrol to surrender rather than ending up surrendering to the Russians.I grew...

    MEP-831a Overload

    I think you should listen to Dewie38 [post#2]. You can buy 831's way cheaper than a new inverter and you would have a parts machine as well.
