    MEP-804A Coolant Temperature Sender Part Number

    Yup! Parttarget.com was the one I used too! Now for my next trick... If you find yourself looking for Hydraulic items on Ebay / Facebook, etc.... try misspelling it intentionally as "Hydrolic" and you'll be amazed at the unseen deals you will come up with and how many people can't spell...

    MEP-804A Coolant Temperature Sender Part Number

    On the Temp sender, that should be the correct one. When you poke around with the NSN# 5905-01-392-8825 you will find a hand full of equivalent PN's associated with it that aren't listed in the TM. including 88-22322 and 02094-00 ( which is the one I sent ) Now Google 02094-00 and you will...

    MEP-804A Coolant Temperature Sender Part Number

    If you determine the temp sender is bad: Not only is it occasionally hard to decipher the Electrical Engineer's item descriptions some times, but when you search for parts, if you don't find it right away, get creative and try other search criteria, other search engines, Try the PN, then try...

    MEP-804A Crank duration

    Just so that there is no confusion, what Peter is saying is that YOU should crank no longer than 30 seconds by the switch and if it doesn't start let go of the switch, let the starter cool and try again. The starter is not going to stop itself after 30 seconds of cranking if you are still...

    Mep-804B help?

    I believe ( or I thought ) what he meant is the machine is shutting itself off ( electronically ) due to a ( false ) Low Fuel indicator. If that is correct, the issue is somewhere in the low fuel circuit, most likely either the float or the float module. I don't think he is saying the machine is...

    120/208 MEP003A No 208v output

    So your 120/240 is working but you get nothing on any leg when you switch the AC select switch to 208 3 phase? And is this verified with a multi meter or are you looking on the volt gage on the machine only? Also, if going just by the volt gage on the machine, are you switching the AM/VM switch...

    MEP-803a voltage drop during monthly test

    I see the Hz gage is pegged up on 65 Hz, is it malfunctioning or is the gen running excessively fast? It does sound like the external potentiometer is either dirty or going bad. At first that non-standard AC volt gage along with the L3-N AM/VM switch setting and 240V reading on your DMM really...

    MEP802A not starting . Notice anything major in video

    Ah, ok... that makes all the difference in the world! I was originally under the impression that it was working, but then quit after the fuel line replacement. Please move forward with checking the fuel flow into and out of the metering pumps. My hunch is that you will find that you have fuel at...

    MEP802A not starting . Notice anything major in video

    One critical piece of info I don't see listed here, was this machine running and then you replaced the fuel lines and now it won't run, or is this set new to you and you have never seen it run??

    Shared the knowledge tonight

    I assume the asking price has now gone up substantially from what he was asking before!

    MEP802A not starting . Notice anything major in video

    So last time it was the Aux. pump you heard running I assume... Next thing I would do is verify fuel is getting to the inlet of the metering pumps. If so, then check for small spurts of fuel coming out the top of the metering pumps while cranking. Also note: That machine needs a few PSI of fuel...

    Mep-804B help?

    Take a look at the 804 TM , it uses a similar Dual float / Float Control module arrangement as the 802 / 803 does. The issue is most likely either with the lower float ( possibly stuck ) on item 62 or an issue with the float module, item 71 But check the TM, I'm familiar with that issue on the...

    MEP803a Battery Charging Issue

    If you have good batteries but a bad alternator, run it with chargers on the batteries to get yourself a little more run time.... or just fix the alternator! :unsure:

    MEP802A not starting . Notice anything major in video

    On that machine to replace the cube pump your best bet is an Airtex E8135, not the E1074. The E8135 will reuse the existing fittings off the cube pump and drop right in place, just have to splice the wires. The E1074 has an odd right angle outlet with a different 1/8" pipe thread size than your...

    Hollingsworth MEP-005a

    What are the hours on your machine? Price depends a lot on hours and condition of the whole package.... gen, hours, ASK ( rust or rot ? ) , trailer ( rust, brakes operational ?) , tires ( any dry rot or cracks ?) .... hard to tell from pictures, but typically I've gotten in the $5500 - $6000 for...

    See that! LITD and I were thinking the same thing and typing at the exact same time... 2 minds say fuel pump!

    MEP802A not starting . Notice anything major in video

    First thing I see is that crappy old Square body fuel pump. If it isn't dead already I would definitely replace it! Just because it is making noise doesn't mean its pumping fuel and building pressure. Bet you $1 that's your problem.... ;)

    MEP803a Battery Charging Issue

    Is the alternator working properly on this machine? You still need 24V after starting to run the fuel pump, fuel solenoid etc. So it will only work if the charging system is working and just the batteries are no good or removed.
