Just be careful... says he used it for his well, doesn't say how long ago! The fuel pump is removed and looks like maybe the filter housing as well. Definitely a good buy at $2000, just don't expect to throw batteries in it and off you go.... I'm sure there's more secrets hiding in there than...

Looking great! Can't wait to hear you say "IT'S RUNNING!" Good luck!

I bought the G-17 not too long ago, so you may still be able to find it. ( think I got it from Rock Auto ) but be advised it is a strainer, not a filter so you should be able to remove it and just backflush with carb or brake cleaner.

Hello, I have some really nice 002's available. I also have spin on fuel and oil filter conversions that I machine myself available as well. Right now I have 3 002's for sale. All super low hour, Lowest is 7 hours, highest is 250 hours. All fully tested and serviced. Unfortunately none have the...

Here's my take on things.... In the first video I believe it is running on 1 cylinder. It is taking far too long for it to come up to speed and the smoke puffs look like a single cylinder firing not 2, and speed sounds fairly close to 1800. In the 2nd video it sounds smoother, but I still think...

Kurt, what is it that you need? A currently functional 002 or 003? if so I can probably provide you with something. I have a few of them here.

Keep turning the motor. "B" is for setting the valves. You want "PC" on the flywheel. Get it on the PC mark and then verify the position of the #1 intake cam lobe in the picture I posted. Most pumps will spin pretty easily with just 2 fingers to turn it. If it requires your whole hand to...

The frequency transducers on those machines are unreliable at best! Either replace the gage with a direct read analog or digital gage ( remove the transducer and chuck it ) Or if you like the original gage look, you can pick up a newer style transducer that LITD found for $12 on ebay that will...

You can find a lot of info on the main breaker here: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/mep-002a-and-003a-main-breaker.61257/page-4 But post #70 specifically talks about the additional 6 control wires you are talking about.

Agreed. I've messed around with these VR's in the past and successfully replaced the transistors and the POT's but other than that you might be better off going with the newer technology the SS member's VR's provide, rather than trying to dig too deep into repairing the original, failure prone...

On the fuel level sensor you are correct, polarity doesn't matter. I usually connect black to what used to be the ground and the sense wire to the red / brown lead, but really doesn't matter and really no point in attaching to one of the mounting screws, I usually just connect with adhesive...

Agreed, you are in good shape to get this done. So follow the procedure in the TM. Seeing that you will have the valve covers off, rotate motor clockwise until the #1 intake valve closes ( 2nd valve from the right ) continue rotating clockwise about another 90* or so until the "PC" mark is...

Just spin the gear, make sure it turns freely now. then push in on the cap where it rides against the cam, it should move in and out freely ( the spring force is tight but you an press it with your thumb ) You could also take out the delivery valve so you can see the plunger movement in and out...

Ok, got it. Maybe I will look into the Firelake units or just keep a constant eye out for another good deal on a used Clean Burn. Since I have radiant in the floor I really should look into evacuated solar tubes, but too many other irons in the fire right now!

Hi Leonardo82nd, you have a different issue than Jayco did. You are getting smoke while cranking so you are probably getting decent fuel out of the injectors. ( or at least some of them ) Jayco had stuck metering pumps and used carb clean in the pumps to loosen them up. On your machine the carb...

Is the first image of the current throttle setting? If so it appears you have the throttle pushed all the way in. Might want to pull the throttle out a bit more and retry. You have smoke, so that means you're getting fuel, but I'm not sure I like the way it's cranking. It sounds a little slow...

I'd agree with your game plan. When you crank the 2007 over, how does it sound? does it spin abnormally fast, without strong compression pulses? I assume you already have a cylinder hone, but if not get yourself a Lisle 15000 micrometer head hone. I've successfully honed these motors up to...

Wow, that sucks! sorry to hear that! I've used them a few times and I think LITD used to use them almost exclusively at one point. Maybe time to rethink.....

Looks great! As an FYI, the Stove Brite paint needs to be heat cured by running the engine at temperature. It will not be very resistant to fuel spills or other chemicals until it is cured. The details are listed on their data sheet , but I learned it the hard way... so just be careful until you...

Sounds like you want to keep the 37's but incase you decide to change the bolt pattern is a standard 8 on 6.5" bolt circle. All 8 lug Ford trucks and vans prior to the Super Duty ( 97' ) series as well as all Dodge trucks and Chevy up to 1999 will fit.
