Post Subject: benjamin/mpw5 generator Short answer - NO. However whilst googling for some sort of answer I found more hits linked MPW5 with the Zeise company and this website has a picture and offers service http://www.suttonmarineservices.com/id12.html (all on one line) The same site suggests it is Farymann based which in turn means a Farymann may carry spares. What you probably need to do is to identify the engine make and model, not the company who put it together, and then either the engine dealers or even a local motor factors may be able to supply you with the filters etc. In fact you may be able to find the filters; makers and part numbers by looking on them so you can just get the same. If this is on a CE marked boat the builder is obliged to hold the technical manual for your boat so they may be able to provide more help. Tony Brooks(Canal Boat andTillergraph)
Hi, thank you for all replies,
I got in touch with camino who took over zeise and got sent a manual for an MPW6 which is very similar.
Wiring diagrams included. ☺☺
