My 2 MEP831a's arrived the other day. One is a 2005 with 30 hours on it. I blew out the fuel lines and some horrific fluid came out. I changed the fluids and filters and added fuel and fired right up. Runs fine and produces power as it should.
Now for the 2nd unit. It's a 2001 with 1100 hours. I...
I used my hands. I was really worried about breaking one of the plastic T's. I pulled the 2 end lines first then I pulled the vertical ones up and slid the top ones off. I used the needle nose to connect the top middle one back together. It was tight under the exhaust.

I won a MEP-803 and I am picking it up on Thursday. Had a few questions about picking one up. Does the front tounge have a crank on it to raise and lower it or is it all muscle work? Is it well balanced that one person can lift it or do I need to bring someone to help me lift or lower it onto my...
