Two kinds of governors on these:
Mechanical, or “droop” governor. Runs on flyweights. No load frequency should
be set at or around 62-63 Hz so when under full load the generator set is at or
near 60 Hz.
Isochronous or electronic governor. Uses a speed pickup on the flywheel, much
like our
I hear you.
Power outages at our NC house were common in the past, but rare recently. I
think we had less than 10 hours of actual power outage over 15 years since we
installed a generator. I'm still glad we have it, especially if (when?) one of
us needs powered home medical equipment in
I saw the Wiltonian R class in downtown DC. Awesome car.

Wilton's son I think. It had transmission noise and he struggled to get the
dealer to address it. I think he finally sold it, noise still there.

They were basically one of those
There is nothing automatic about our emergency power system, fully manual.
In fact during "normal" times I'd need to either pull a battery from one of the
cars or drive the 7 miles down to the ASV and steal one of its batteries. It
was only that I had it here on maintenance charge...

So it's basically a Chrysler with an MB badge and engine?
Or did they do more to it?
VW had the Routan, which was basically a Dodge Caravan but VW reworked
the suspension to give it more "German" feel and handling.

They were basically one of those Chrysler wagon/SUV crossover things, I
forget what they were called, or VV. Same platform though I understand.

Seems like a fair assumption.
My Emerald Green W140 had MSU stickers on driver's door and trunk lid.
The story that came with the car says it's green
I assume the reference to OSU is a local thing given where the vehicle
is located.
It looks to be the same colour as my 76 115 300D.
Andrew refers to it as mittlerod if I recall correctly - middle red -
not lipstick red and not burgundy - more like cherry pie filling.

Good question. A lot depends on the prime mover being used and type of fuel.
With propane you get very little oil dilution, which is good, but you’ll still
have breakdown over a relatively short time due to the internal forces, I would
think.
The business uses a “once a year or 100 hours”
What is the oil life like on a 3600rpm genset under constant usage?
I'd think around 100-200 hours instead of 25-50 hours, but even that
would be once or twice a week in constant duty. I do my mom's LP Generac
once a year or after every 24+ hour outage.
This year, I serviced it a month after
Believe me, I am.
I’ve been following a story on a generator forum I belong to as a SME (subject
matter expert) about a guy in Lake Charles who has been keeping his generator
running while they’ve been without power. He was finally able to take it
offline a week or two ago to perform much
Just be glad you're not in Lake Charles, Louisiana.

There is no more smug feeling than when you're enjoying the comforts
of civilization while your less-prepared brethren are not. ESPECIALLY
if they ridiculed you while you were working on setting it up.
The only trouble is when you make it TOO automatic, and you don't get
