    Choosing a Generator

    I have sold quite a few MEP generators over the years. I always tell buyers to always consider fuel consumption as one of their main considerations.

    MEP-1040, what have I gotten myself into?

    I have had several 1040s and 1030s and currently use a 1040 for home back-up. So far I have had no issues. I have a spare control panel in case any electronic issues in the future. GP just sold quite a few control panels last week. I suggest you buy one up when they pop up again for peace of...

    MEP-1040 Owners

    Looks like it is time to put my MEP-1040 on the old auction block. The final 1040 (128 hours) sold for $8160 Auction prices on everything have been nuts! Sellers on eBay can't bring in the prices from recent gov auctions.

    MEP-1040 Owners

    I have a 1040 and love it. It is quieter than the 803, and uses less fuel at .69 gph. Of course for the past few years since going from a MEP-802a to a 1040 my power never goes out to put it to good use.

    MEP-803a Rotor Swap

    I didn't. I just cleaned up and sprayed it with compressed air to get the dust/dirt out. I got it all put back together and fired it up, works like a champ now. This was a much easier job than I was expecting.

    MEP-803a Rotor Swap

    So far no problems getting the rotor and stator on the 803 today. I used some 2x4s to hold up the rotor while I could align it and get the bolts in, it worked really good for only have one set of hands. Got is all put together but it was -5 degrees outside so I decided to wait until tomorrow...
