The generic Glyptal I used a few years ago is still OK.. no pealing, cracking etc. I just refurbished a mower deck 2 months ago. I sand blasted it, sprayed phosphoric acid on the bare metal, let set, washed and then applied Rust Bullet paint to the underside. I did not sandblast the underside (just the top of the deck). Anyway.. that rust bullet is some good stuff. NO grass sticks to the underside of the deck. I've used just about all the miracle rust paints out there. Por-15 is probably the worst of the batch. I've been using Rust Bullet for about 10 years or so and highly recommend it.

Good to know. I have mine mounted onto an I-beam frame. I have the Almand pulley and will be running at about 1500 rpm.

Interesting. I had assumed that the first thing most people did when they got some veggie was to turn it in to biodiesel. Never quite understood why. My 86 Diesel Jetta owners manual says to just add gas in the winter to prevent jelling. I just use a hydrometer. A little more gas in the winter than in the summer works for me.

Generic it is. Just ordered 2 cans. Thanks guys for the input.

Here's a close-up of my engine mount. It is a 200# mount. This cuts down the vibration significantly as well as the 100# mounts I tried. Once I hooked the gen head up (belt and tightened) the vibration increased.



Here is a general set up showing the gen head.  I was thinking of adding some isolation pads for the whole thing to set on. Any suggestions? Would adding pads to the feet of the generator do anything?

broncodriver..Thanks..I'm in!
