My twin Honda EU3000is Generator Install

[TomC]

I bought my 10kw Powertech in 1994. It has a mechanical 4 cylinder Kubota, and a large diameter brushless alternator. Have about 1200 hrs on it with zero problems.

My truck is using a 3 cylinder Kubota mechanical with 12kw head that is only 36" long-custom made by Dick Wright of Wrico International for me, since the 4 cylinder was too long. Good Luck, TomC

I work on more of the PowerTech 10 kw than any other generator you can bank on the head bearing seizing at around 2000 hrs

I have a 6500 generac and it's good until you start running 2 ac units and living in the bus. Mine is in the ac compartment and I put a radiator fan the side wall and there was already a hole with mesh to the bottom to cool it or it starts getting to hot. It's also a gas hog at lite load it still burns a gal per hou. It's quiet though. Can bearly hear it in the back.

Been running these poor Hondas non stop since we bought them a week ago they are simply amazing little beasts. I still can't get over how quiet they are. I've been in Gatlinburg at the Hilton park Vista for the weekend for a convention I'm singing for so Heather and I left the bus in the parking lot with just one genset running in Eco mode. They claim 20 hours....I'm getting like 24. It's crazy. Just running the fridge and some lights. 24 hours on 3.1 gallons of fuel. Simply joyous to use these. Electric key start. Smooth and quiet. Why didn't I do this years ago. Inverter power is so clean. Lights don't flicker anymore, water pump runs and sounds proper now, microwave doesn't sound weird or struggle now. 5600 watts of combined usable continuous power is pelt by for us. Plenty. So so happy finally to have a decent genset setup. Now to install a 100 gallon aux gas tank

If you ever come across a EV Honda in your travels Scott buy it those are good generators the one in JC's parked next to him you could hardly hear it run.I don't know why Honda stop making those I know parts are costly I have a EV 4010 I've had for a few years that needs a radiator and Honda wants almost 500 bucks for it

Mine is a EV 6000 I think. It is on propane, which can be hard to find on the road (see my other post about that). But other than that, it runs really nice and is quiet.

All F/J should have propane JC

[lostagain]

It is a EV6010, which is gasoline, but evidently has been converted to propane.

The came both ways JC the propane EV was the most popular with RV's

[lostagain]

My manual for it is the gasoline model. The genny is propane. It works really good though. Just finding propane filling stations on the road will require more planning...

Nice! Sooo nice. Thanks for the ideas. Where'd you get the drawer slide?

Explain the exhaust a little for me. Are those silicone connectors that you can remove to slide it out? They don't melt?

I am going to guess here but I think those are bent steel pipes with a High Temp turbo charger connection...think high HP drift/race cars
