Generators

[Oonrahnjay]

Way too much this and that, and experimentation to get a one radiator system to work. Just keep the two engines separate-you'll be the happiest. If you have a question about that, run an oversized radiator on the generator. I had Dick Wright provide a radiator that is 50% bigger than normal so I can run in hot, dry desert without overheating. Good Luck, TomC 

    I don't think I'v ever seen an oversized radiator -- most of them seem to be just barely big enough .... if you know what I mean.  Good choice for the desert and hot conditions.

Back to generator if you can find a Kohler from a RV those are real good generators very seldom do they give you any trouble

We have a Kohler 7KW with a 3 cylinder Kubota engine. A great and easy to work on Generator.

Oversized remote radiator-that's the advantage of a remote radiator. You can go bigger-even use a car radiator. I have a 18" high efficiency pusher fan that Dick Wright provided for the radiator. It is a European design and in testing (it has variable speed) at full speed can push me backwards (me holding the fan). At slower speed, it is silent running. It only pulls about 8 amps. Good Luck, TomC

LOL you topped us all TomC as big as your are that would need to be 1 bad @$# fan to push you backwards
