    MEP-8xx series fuel pump

    The same thing happened to me. Aux pump cut-out float stuck and overfilled the tank. No spill as I was there and watching but I will not use the aux pump unattended. The convenience is not worth the hassle of cleaning up a spill.

    Green panel light bulb source

    I'm just being nit picky. I like to keep the 802's as original as possible. I'll just use the clears for now. Some green ones will turn up eventually. Thanks to you all for the help and suggestions. -Craig

    Green panel light bulb source

    They have green LEDs for the contactor. Don't see panel lights though.

    Green panel light bulb source

    Thanks for looking. I found a couple adds for the lamp assemblies but struck out on just the green bulbs. Were the adds you found for just the bulbs? Oh and if you use MEP -memphis as your search string it cuts out about a million motorcycle windshield adds. Thanks again....I'll keep digging.

    Green panel light bulb source

    Yes and yes. The part number in the -24 is the one I cited. The -801 denotes green. National fuse lists them as -801 but its not what they ship or seem to actually have. (called them). Thanks for the assist.......still looking for a source.

    Green panel light bulb source

    Does anyone have a source for the green panel light bulbs? They are part# 6s6-30v. I can find plenty of the clear ones but the greens have so far been hard to find. There is a vendor called National Fuse that has them on their website but when I ordered them they shipped clear bulbs. Thanks...

    MEP-803A smoking under load.

    I'd run it under a good load (at least 75%) for a while and see if that clears it up. How many hours on it?

    MEP-802A/803A S1 Master Switch Source - Electroswitch

    Exactly correct. I bought 2 of these in February. Same price as LITD quoted and 3-4 weeks lead time.

    mep gen sets

    There's only 1 model 803.....that would be the 803a. With that said, some would say it's better to get a Fermont built 803a rather than the older Libby built 803a. YMMV

    mep gen sets

    They are one and the same actually. Fermont was the assembler, Onan was the mfg of the gen head and Lister Petter makes the engines which are rebadged to Onan.

    MEP-802 and 803 Main generator tip.

    I have 2 802a sets. They both have the fuse mod but neither of them has the MOV in place. This thread contains a few different links sourcing the MOV, some of which are no longer available. Can anyone tell me the correct part number or provide a link to the recommended part? Thanks to you...

    MEP-803A :: A few questions

    Those radiator hoses look to be a great fit. When you get a chance can you please post the part numbers? Good luck in Haiti. Stay safe.

    MEP 803a Fuel Water/Separator

    This. Easier and less chance of messing something else up. Also gives you a chance to inspect everything in the back part of the control cube. I've done it only on 2 802a's and they were nightmare tight with very little room to work. Go in from the side and grab it high.

    Main start switch dead Mep-802

    Glads to hear you're back up and running!

    Main start switch dead Mep-802

    First thing is to check the DC circuit breaker as mentioned earlier, and then check that the emergency stop button has not been pushed in.

    MEP 802a/803a reliability in the field

    Same here Farmitall. 3 diesels and 2 gas jobs. I keep the gas ones around for heat and light if needed to get a diesel online.
