    MEP-802A

    Bang for the buck that's a very good price. A few things that I didn't think much about when I got mine was how heavy it was. A 5k little gas genset can be thrown in the front seat. You'll need a small trailer or a forklift to get this out of your truck. I ended up buying a bunch of 2 inch pvc...

    M1008 alternator

    Sounds like you need some help with the drivers side belts. Slipping on the water pump pulley. Getting the power steering belt tight is not that easy since there isn't much to pry on. Definitely tighten the power steering first. I do the pull to get tight from under against the mount bracket...

    Tailgate will not open

    It's not that hard to get it to pop open from the inside. I just pull each latch release arm and push each side until it opens. Sounds like you need to adjust the handle throw on the latch or the bolts are loose. Could be rusty too. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    Source for New M1008 Radiator?

    Yes but you need the connection for the heater hose. It's 16x1.50 if I remember right. Had to buy one. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    That looks like the newer style clip in hose end. I'm not sure but there could be an adapter out there from that to the metal line. ALLOYWORKS 3 Row Radiator For 1982-1991 CHEVY GMC C/K 1500 2500 3500 Suburban 6.2L Diesel https://a.co/d/eI8mIYa Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    803A dropping from 60hz to 56hz under 25% load.

    This group ROCKS!! I didn't know there was an adjustment for this. Just lived with it. I think I will leave it where it is then. I can hit from 25 to 80 when the dryer coil turns on. It drops the about 2 lines and stays there. Sits right at 60 with the 25% load. Seems to be a happy medium...

    803A dropping from 60hz to 56hz under 25% load.

    What is the accepted droop amount? I can put a 75% load and it drops 2 lines on the hertz gauge. I did do one clockwise turn on the governor. It was worse before. It does not hunt or smoke. Is there a page in the tm that shows that? I didn't find it. 803a too.

    M1009 Little Red Riding Hood.

    Well...I didn't see that coming! I understand getting it done right though. The rest of the truck looks new. I can think of a few parts that will look great on that engine now too!! Glad you'll use them. Wish this caught me a few weeks ago...I had a brand new cross over pipe I just sold on...

    Couple of issues with MEP 803 A

    You can pop a plug on it. Just need to make sure they get put in line with each other. Weather style plugs are not that hard to get. Glad it cleaned up easy.

    MEP-802A Wiring and setting help

    Those are 2 male ends that ones hot with the genset on. If you mess with it you can get cooked. See it a bunch in the camping overlanding world too. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    MEP-802A Wiring and setting help

    Ok hooking up depends if you're doing 220 or 110. I assume 220. If you open the front of the gauge box you'll see a big switch. You want to set it to the 120/240. Then outside is set to l3 l1. There is a bus bar that may need removed too. It's hooked to the neutral l3 inside. You can see it...

    Addressing MEP-802a vibration

    Well just in my automotive world I have seen many NVH things attached randomly on suspension parts and engines over the years. It is usually a bracket with some sort of heavy rubber mounted to a strut or engine mount. I am sure the engineers spent time finding the correct weight to counter the...

    Couple of issues with MEP 803 A

    I think I bought 6 feet of it just to be safe. I ordered the original style hose so I didn't want to come up short. Carb cleaner is pretty mild. Don't use brake clean that could eat the floats. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk

    Couple of issues with MEP 803 A

    I use carb cleaner to get the goo off. Sounds like the diesel at one point sat and did the moss grow stuff. You can use a diesel conditioner to keep stuff from growing in it or drain the tank if it's going to sit for a while. I assume since you're in a high humidity area it doesn't take long for...

    th400 help with bolt identification SOLVED

    Oh if you didn't take the pump apart then it could be the bolts that hold the pump in the case. I got one with those type bolts in it. Sent from my SM-S906U using Tapatalk
