Solar update for 1st quarter
Sometime during the night the engine block cracked -
I think it was fatigue and the oil drained out. Once the
black stuff got out (liquid smake ?!) it was all over.
Now, and someday, I might take the alternator and consider a homemade
job or buy a new engine. Still awiting a bright idea.
I'm thinking a 'Dutch' windmill generator - lawn decoration.
But most of our wind is 20 feet and higher.

Caution -
that is an RV generator - the 220 volt looking plug isn't.
Mine is somewhat like that - my Honda ran to long - over a week and
it was to hard on it.

A tip for running 10HP Max Eng-Gen sets
Run straight SAE 30 oil and change every 40 running hours or
quarterly.
Learned this the hard way from a small engine specialist.
