I WAS GOING TO ASSEMBLE THIS GEN-SET TO COMPLIMENT MY SOLAR SYSTEM, IN CASE, OR WHEN, THE GRID EVER WENT DOWN. THE ENGINE IS A 5 HP KUBODA, DIESEL, IT SIPS FUEL (HOME HEATING OIL IS THE SAME FUEL) THE GENERATOR END IS BRAND NEW, UNUSED, ALL THAT HAS TO BE DONE, IS TO FABRICATE A STAND, AND WIRE IT IN. HARBOR FRIEGHT HAS GREAT PRICES ON A/C TIE IN SWITCHING. I WAS GOING TO MOUNT IT AWAY FROM THE HOUSE WITH ITS OWN FUEL SUPPLY IN ITS OWN LITTLE (DOGHOUSE SIZE) ENCLOSURE. 2.5 KW IS ENOUGHT TO RUN ALMOST EVERYTHING IN THE HOUSE, BUT NOT ALL AT ONCE! THE ENGINE WAS PURCHASED FROM THE STATE, IT WAS USED AS A STANDBY FOR A DC SETUP TO CHARGE STORAGE BATTERYS, IT APPEARS TO HAVE ALMOST NO USE. PURCHASED SEPERATLY THESE TWO ITEMS WOULD EASILY EXCEED $1000.00. I AM RELOCATING AND DONT WANT TO DRAG THEM WITH ME. SO MY LOSS IS YOUR GAIN. OH, IT CAN BE ELECTRIC START AND COMES WITH A CRANK ALSO..! NOT ENOUGH POWER? ASK ME ABOUT MY FRIENDS GENSET HE HAS FOR SALE, IT IS AN OLD 5 KW AND WEIGHS A TON! (REALLY,,MAYBE 2000LBS) BUT WOULD BE GREAT TO USE WITH A SYSTEM TO SCAVENGE THE HEAT FOR RUNNING INTO A HW SYSTEM TO HEAT THE HOUSE. CALL ME AT 302-322-0587 MAKE SURE YOU ASK ME ABOUT ALL THE OTHER THINGS I HAVE FOR SALE, UTILITY TRAILER, RARE BIKES, TOOLS, AND MORE..!
