    MEP-803a overload circuit

    Just got in a nice 803a and was load testing the unit. As I was increasing the load, the percent load gauge barely moved and after approximately 60 seconds the interrupter tripped and the overload indicator lite up. The amperage on both legs were 43 amps and the percent load gauge was reading...

    MEP-003a Fuel Cut off Solenoid

    I've got a unit that ran great until last week. When I went to start the unit, it would not start due to the fuel cut off solenoid not disengaging. I've taken the solenoid off and it tested good. There is no binding and it easily disengages when 24 volts is manually applied. It's only me so I...

    MEP-003a Smoking

    He guys, I have another MEP-003a that is having a problem with producing a large amount of white/blueish smoke. When I got the unit from GL it produced large amounts of white/blueish smoke. I thought it may have been an injector leaking so I sent them to Storeman and had them adjusted. I...

    MEP-003a Running Hot 400+ degrees

    This is a first for me, I just received a MEP-003a for GL with low hours and I'm having a problem with it running hot (400+ degrees). On the fuel tank it was written "A Service 01-13-2009", looks like they put a new injection pump, glow plugs, and 1 new injector in it. It started ok and smoked...

    MEP-002a 240 voltage problem

    I've got a problem, I was running the MEP-002a on the house with 240 volts. Everything went great, shut down and went back about hour later and ran it again. Now I'm only getting 120volts off L1 and about 2volts at L3?? Any ideas?? What would cause L3 to go dead??

    MEP-002a Injector Pump

    I have bought several 002a's over the years and this is the first I have had a problem with the injector pump (lucky). It had a frozen plunger, I eventually got the plunger moving freely by hitting it lightly with a punch. I tried to start with no luck, so I took the injector lines off and I'm...

    MEP-002A Control panel

    Has anyone been able to find a replacement panel or vinyl overlay for the MEP-002a control panel. I have a couple of units that have faded beyond repair. I know ebay but I was checking to see if we had any other sources?

    MEP-002a Smoking

    I've got a MEP-002a that smokes (white) when started and sounds like it's running on 1 cylinder. But after about 3 minutes, the smoke clears and runs good. I load tested it at 100% for 1 hour, without any issues (no smoke, minimal droop). Turned off and restarted with smoking again. I believe...

    I have a 1968 M35A2C with the air shift transfer case and can not get it to go into low gear. High and neutral shift fine but when I try to shift into low, it feels like somthing is blocking it. I tried rolling the truck in high and shifting the transfer case into low but it still would not...

    MEP-004a starting problem

    I just purchased a MEP-004a from GL. I went through all the starting procedures, when I flipped the switch to run and the battle switch on , the coolant gauge pegs out to the highest level, the low oil light stays on (on the fault indicator). I flipped the test/reset switch on the Fault...
