Need parts

[rickf]

Where can I get parts for a MEP-002A? Looking for a master switch and a fuel tank. Maybe more stuff as I go along.

If the switch is the same as a MEP-016B I may have one.

 

[derf]

Not mine. Is this for a 002A?

I purchased a used Master control Switch from Delk's.

They were great to deal with.

 

[DieselBob]

I second DH, Delks. Very good to deal with,

Derf, Thanks for the line on the tank, I am probably going to get it. It looks like your switch might be the same. what do you want for it? Delk's wants 150.00 for a tank and 75.00 for a switch. I think that is rather high for a switch even if it is NOS. Doghead, How did you get a used one? Ask if they had it?

I asked for NOS, they said all they had was used. The switch I received was definitely used(it had the wires still attached and just cut out of the panel box!) I asked if it was guaranteed not DOA, they said sure, no problem.

All things considered, a $75 switch is small potatoes, when you need the switch.(IMHO)

PM me, may have that.

I agree but I am not even sure this thing runs yet so I don't want to dump a ton of money into it and find out it does not run.

$25 shipped? What do you think is fair? Trade for something? I don't have the knob for it.

PM me, may have that.

PM sent.

I think 25 is fair as long as it has the nut to hold it to the panel and the screws for the wires. I really have nothing to trade since I am a M-151 guy. I figure I can find some sort of knob at Radio Shack. I was waiting for Kipman to respond to my pm and see if he had a complete one off of a 002 but he never answered. How do you want payment?

Rick

 

[derf]

PayPal sucks but is easiest.
A friend of mine is restoring an M-151 for another guy.

 

[rickf]

Paypal works for me, what is your paypal address? If you put the money in as a gift and not for a sale item then they do not take anything out.

Guys, please handle your sales details with PMs or other means, not in the forums.

 

[rickf]

Sorry, I am new to loking for parts over here. Tried the classified's with no luck.

PM's it is.

Hey, dude. There is another one on ebay. I PMd you a link.

 

[doghead]

Posting ebay links(to current items for auction) is not allowed. One reason is, the item links go dead shortly after the auction ends. There are several reasons why we don't want ebay links on SS.

Links to an ebay seller are ok. They don't go dead later on.

Thanks guys

I want to thank those that have offered to help me out and I will get back tp you all. I seem to have run afoul of normal practice here and I am getting people in trouble. Not my intention at all. I will see what I can find elswhere.

Thanks.
