Hi Tim,
Sorry I cant help and must plead ignorance. What is an ICE? Also
re seals I am sure there is someone far more knowledgeable than me who has
had hands on experience with the Cummins.
If you are trying to get more mpg I suggest you research some of the patents
that have been filed over the last 50 years in relation to high mileage etc
especially those that have been bought up or are held by oil companies. When
I was a child there was heaps of information, some somewhat limited, other
stuff that was far more explicit in popular American and other magazines
such as Popular Mecanics, Scientific American, and even the good old Readers
Digest.
Somewhere I have a list of Patents held by people such as the oil companies.
I am sure if a number of people did searches they would be amazed with what
they come up with. One things for sure there is not that many things out
there that have not been done before in some alternative fashion.

Cant comment on generators in the States either. Am aware that there is a
brand called Onan which a lot of people use there but know nothing about
size or any other details. Have a search for them on the net using a
multiple search engine and you should have some luck. Also have a look on
Steve Spences webpages as I am sure he has got some info on electricity
there as well.
