I'm curious what people experience is with an 802a on a trailer is for dancing around. Being a 2 cylinder, it's going to shake, and that is going to transfer in to the trailer. Assuming you're not on a perfectly level location, (and there isn't a level spot anywhere on my property) do they go...

Casually looking for the adjustable front landing jack for a M116. NSN 2590013880958 PN 12436705 Crank handle would be nice too. I figure it's just easier to swap it in for my fixed length leg than instal a civ trailer leg, and I'm currently feeling lazy, plus it's still cold out there to be...

Switch in question: Ok folks... When I was pulling apart the carcass of the 813a, the S6 knob was stuck. Bad. The center screw was no issue, but the knob was not coming off. Obviously the cold wasn't helping. I had a couple screw drivers under it to lift, and rock it a bit when it moved a...

I've been wanting to put a trailer under my MEP-802a. It hasn't been an urgent need, so I really didn't pursue it. It still isn't urgent. However, I had the thought that it would be very nice to put the 802 on one end of a trailer, and a vintage pretty heavy, but low power draw air compressor...

As I get ready to salvage what I can from the 813a carcass, I wanted to run a couple by the gurus here... I've currently got a square blue S1 in my 802. If I understand, that's the 2nd version, but still prone to failure? The 813 has the below S1, and I thought I should confirm if this is the...

Ok... Well this came to light here: No Start - Oil Pressure - 802a I thought I'd start a fresh thread with a more useful title to keep the further info in. I haven't gone any further yet really. I expect it may be a slow evolution. I found someone with a 803a enclosure that had the engine...

I'll preface this with the fact I haven't looked in the TM's yet. I'll likely be doing that rather than twiddling my thumbs at work tomorrow. No emergency, so no urgent need. I went out to start the 802a today. Hasn't run in a while, so I thought I'd put some fuel additives, and winter...

Crappy day outside, so time to wire the outlet on the 802a. Because my use is both as a house backup, and then also to run some 3 phase tools as needed, I wanted one plug that can handle everything. It isn't code, because such a plug doesn't exist. However, an L21-30 will let me pull what I...

My unit has 1 of the large battery covers. It's got a couple of the small terminal covers. Is there a good reason to keep that royal PITA, rock hard, battery cover, and is it a good enough reason that I should be picking up the second? (I'm not going to ask why the TM calls for 4) Is that...

I flat out know this info is in here... For the life of me I can't find the right search string to enter to bring up the results... Just think how many posts are simply titled MEP-802a... Ok, so after the highly irritating process of taking things apart to replace the fuel drain well nut, it...

So, while cleaning out the vintage crud in the bottom of the 802a, I came across these two items... I have no idea what they are, and while I'm not really concerned, I'm curious. I simply expect these are remnants from some prior repair that got dropped, or launched, and weren't easily found...

Ok... What have folks done for the rodent proofing on the bottom of the 802a? The two holes under the batteries are likely going to be simple. That big ol' square in the center probably more of a pain. I was kinda hoping to find grillwork similar to the sides, and top, but that was just hope...

Good morning... Or Afternoon... Or, whatever it may be for you. I did a quick search, without finding anything jumping out at me, and I'll continue to dig, but perhaps someone could point me to particular thread that's good... I'm in the market for an MEP-802a. While I'd love the capacity of...
