Forgive my naiveté, but why would you want to use just one resistor in that configuration instead of a seperate one for each glow plug? Not only would it reduce significantly the power needed to be dissipated by the (each) resistor, but if one GP fails the others would still operate normally...
I know this thread is old, but in case anyone else reads it there is a way to disconnect the batteries safely while the gen is running. In the TM's there is a procedure to check the battery charging system. It involves replacing the batteries in the charging system with a resistor (Don't recall...
Thanks for the info guys. It definitely sounds like something I will be going to. I still need to get the paperwork from GL for my trlr before I can register it.
I will try to get to that meeting tonight - looking forward to meeting you guys.
BTW, the A3's are nicer than the A2's in several ways, but they do require a higher pintle hitch setting since they ride higher on the springs and on the taller run-flat tires.
What kind of show is in Sussex, and what's the date? Last time I was at any kind of show there it was the annual airshow (miss that). And that leads to the next Q - what is MTA? Sounds like something I need to belong to...
I was intending on buying -003's that were without trailers and mounting...

Hi, Been occasionally meandering here and found lots of useful info.
Recently purchased a few generators - MEP-003 , -004, and a -005. I am sloooowly trying to get them all in rood running order. Some have issues like the -003 I started for the first time the other day has a fuel issue (I...
Lost one of the glow plug washers when I accidently dropped it on the ground yesterday, so
I just ordered a box of glow plugs (10) and a bag of copper washers.
I'm going to have extra if anyone needs them. PM me.

emmado22 - do you still have any more of that "mountain" of plastic USGI cans for sale? Any DD's to go with them? If so, can you direct me to your info, thanks
