MEP-802A Coolant Bottle and Intermittent Surging Issues

As the suspense builds, the joy one feels when it at last gets tossed on the porch is immense!

Unfortunately, "Tis the Season..." & that joy could fade rather quickly ... if one looks at their Ring Camera, etc. and notices that a "Porch Pirate" made off with pkg's before you snagged them off your porch!

Thankfully I've got that situation under control on The Compound with multiple presence sensors that report to my phone & a great watch dog plus other deterrents!

We do not have that problem here in the German sticks. Maybe in the city, do not know. But in the boondocks, its not a problem yet.

What a surprise it would be if some porch pirate opens himself ( or herself ) up a brand new radiator bottle for "Christmas"
Bet he was hoping for a new set of Earbuds or perhaps some other electronics.... not a plastic bottle!
If it happens to get stolen, you may get it back with a sympathy note attached.

The shipment I'm waiting for is for the fuel filter and the seals that keep things dry in there.

So Napa has the filter, but the filter only comes with a gasket for the bowl, not the two for the thru-bolt...

Go to a good auto parts store. I always used O-rigs from a standard O-Ring kit. Should not be hard to match up.

They are a standard, albeit uncommon stock item, dash size 202. https://www.mcmaster.com/#9464K118 The bowl takes two.

All the best,

not sure what filter brand you have coming, but i have found only the Onan original or the fram filter come with the extra orings

It's a Napa 3348 filter.

Had three guys at the local Napa scouring the store for anything that might work. Two gave up and said they had nothing, third guy found an assortment pack that had one that looked like it would work. He robbed two of the assortment packs and told me to have a nice day - no charge.

That's what's coming... sort of...
