In the last year I have bought a Honda 2200i inverter gen set ( I converted it to dual fuel) ,a champion dual fuel 3500 inverter gen set and a 9000 champion dual fuel… installed a 1000 gal propane tank plumbed to feed all three gen sets for long term use , and to help power my RV heat and appliances…I ran and practiced living off all three gen sets about 50 to 100 hrs each on gas , no prob and then switched to propane … and still no problem …now I discover that propane is Gona mess them all up .. first I ever heard of this, but it must be somthing to it or y’all wouldn’t be discussing it…I don’t want to be a small engine mechanic..im done with dirty hands …
the gens were purchased to act as supplemental power and to assist this damn “Demonic“ diy solar system that gets all my attention, money and time trying to finish it….by this fall.
this propane stuff is not good news to hear… I thought it would make things a lot simpler and cleaner. I have had many gas and diesel gen sets in my life on boats and houses . Gas is a messy and dangerous thing to store in any large quantity, or treat ,preserve and count on long term ..I hate gas .. and storing diesel is worse…if you spill some it stinks forever and the local EPA will come take you away..……Is anything easy anymore ?.. Last week I filled up my propane for about 2 bucks a gallon and thought I was set…,now I’m depressed..
