    DC Breaker Tripping MEP 002A

    I've had 3 failures on them. The way I prove it is replace the breaker with a 7.5 automobile fuse. Beats buying a breaker if you don't need it

    Mep-003 donor engine

    That is where the unknowns are most information I have is right out of the manual but despite my studies on it I am more of a Hands-On learner so until I actually get the components in my hands it's not all there I'm sure once I start taking it apart and following the timing procedure it should...

    Mep-003 donor engine

    I'm sure it won't be too horrible, never done one before. The part that has me most concerned is the button setting. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

    Mep-003 donor engine

    After some online searching I was able to find a shipper that was more reasonable, so hopefully I should have the whole thing within a few weeks. Then I get to play the song and dance of injection pump replacement. Thanks to all for the opinions

    Mep-003 donor engine

    I have the opportunity to get ahold of a mostly complete donor engine. Problem being it is 3000 miles from me and shipping is costly. What items would you all think should be pulled and saved? Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

    Mep803a wiring to home panel questions?

    Question and Suggestion about Governor Spring on MEP002A and MEP003A

    on these units no, in other applications I have seen some alloys get stiff from excessive mechanical force (think of how a paperclip gets brittle form bending it several times)

    MEP-004a or 005a voltage regulator

    2 wires for Volt sensing. 2 for field. Then there needs to be something to inject power to the field to start the head. That's where a resistor comes in. It sounds intimidating but it's quite easy. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk
