As I was thinking about backup power the other day the following
train
of thought occurred to me:-

1. Generators are available powered by diesel or petrol

2. Petrol car engines are easily converted to run on LPG

3. My gas hob is easily switched between natural gas and LPG

So I was wondering whether or not it is possible to get a petrol
generator running off LPG, and if so, could it be further converted
to
run off mains gas?


Machine Mart do a kit to convert their Honda petrol sets to run on
LPG.
How easy it would be to run on natural gas I don't know - suspect with
a
bit of carb tweaking would be very easy.

Thanks - from these 2 replies I'm clearly not being as stupid as I first
thought :-)
