I built a shed over the year and I made it with keeping my generator on the side of the shed. I made a 1/2" rebar reinforced 6" thick concrete slab for the generator to sit on. It has an overhang roof to keep it dry and I welded up a stainless exhaust system to route it above the roof. I put in...
Here is what I bought for the exterior one

Sure, They are in a separable housing that allows you to take the filter out inside it. The filter itself is a very fine mesh stainless. You can remove the filter and clean it out and put it back in the housing and keep going. With the size of these housings, I doubt there will be any need to...
I added inline filters to both pumps. These are the 30 micron stainless ones that can be taken apart and rinsed out. I decided to mount an external one for the AUX tank so I can clean it without having to take the cover off. I also added a gauge to the outlet of the main priming pump.

I like using the Teflon braided lines. They are the last ones you will ever need to replace with and last the life of your rig. I built a diesel engine last year with all of those lines. These are common use in the aerospace industry. I finished replacing the last line to the pump yesterday...
That is good to know. I haven't placed the generator in the back of my property yet, but I have noticed that it is considerably quieter than my old screamer generator.
Guyfang,
That is a good idea. I was also toying with having it on solid steel casters so I can wheel it around on the pad. Not totally sure what I want to do yet but I like the idea of it off the ground. Also toying of putting solid walls around it with some sound deadining materials to get the...
I bought a MEP-802A off Gov Planet a month ago with 4.5K hrs on the meter and is non reset from 2000. Taking the chance of not really knowing what I was getting, I brought it home, changed filters and fluids and did the fuse mod, put some fuel and new batteries in it and it fired right up. Made...
