I converted my generator to run on natural gas about 10 yearrs ago. I don't remember now where I bought the kit but it was somewhere online. I do remember telling the sales person the model of the engine on my generator and that was the only information he needed. He then sent me the kit which consisted of a natural gas regulator ( looks similar to the one on a gas grill) an adaptor that bolted onto the carb, a piece of hose that connected the regulator to the adaptor, and a few bolts and clamps. It was pretty simple to hook up, I completed the job in less than an hour. The most difficult part was extending the choke linkage to get it to reach so I could still run it on gasoline ----- Original Message ----- From: Edward Przybylek To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, November 09, 2008 12:27 Subject: RE: [BlindHandyMan] Generator Conversion Kits to Propane and Natural Gas.
Hi all, I read this message about generator conversion kits and took a look at the web site. I was wondering if anyone has ever done such a conversion. If so, how well did it work out? Was the actual conversion difficult to do? Thanks a lot. Take care, Ed Przybylek -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lenny McHugh Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 2008 7:27 PM To: handyman-blind Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Generator Conversion Kits to Propane and Natural Gas. Bill, I found this site. They have some interesting information about conversions. I didn't notice prices. They stated that a 20£ cylinder is equal to 5 gallons of gas. At about $4 per gallon it is almost double what I just paid for my grill tank to be filled at $11. http://www.propane-generators.com/ ------------------------------------ Send any questions regarding list management to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To listen to the show archives go to link http://www.acbradio.org/pweb/index.php?module=pagemaster&PAGE_user_op=view_p age&PAGE_id=33&MMN_position=47:29 Or ftp://ftp.acbradio.org/acbradio-archives/handyman/ The Pod Cast address for the Blind Handy Man Show is. http://www.acbradio.org/news/xml/podcast.php?pgm=saturday Visit The Blind Handy Man Files Page To Review Contributions From Various List Members At The Following address: http://www.jaws-users.com/JAWS/handyman/ Visit the archives page at the following address http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ If you would like to join the JAWS Users List, then visit the following address for more information: http://www.jaws-users.com/ For a complete list of email commands pertaining to the Blind Handy Man list just send a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Groups Links [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
