I have the Generac 11kw, bought in Feb., 2014, on Propane, 250 gallon tank. Auto on/off, runs 15 min once per week to keep things in ready to run order. I did the unit installation and gas co. did the Propane installation. Coop power company checked. Only problem over the years was an oil filter OEM installed too tight, failed a couple of years ago, like most everything I have bought lately with an OEM installed filter......too tight, had a slight leak at the crimp seam....gotta buy the $450 auto/manual transfer switch to go with it if not offered with the unit.
House is on Propane for the big heating things (space heat, hot water, dryer, kitchen range) so I can run the whole house on it.....keeping in mind that you don't need to have everything working all time. Like you don't need the Iron, coffee pot, and microwave all running simultaneously while the AC is running sort of thing. Ref and Freezer no biggie running. Never had a black/brown out.....never tested how much of what it would take. Never had a problem with AC compressor cycling, or a load problem if it, the ref, and freezer decided to kickin together as far as I know...house is well insulated, zone cooled, and about 2000 sq. ft cooled area when on the standby gen.

Today's Featured Article - Timing Your Magneto Ignition Tractor - by Chris Pratt. If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
