That's a BLOODY long way to drive to get an engine! You are really keen. Looks like it was worth it though.
Maybe I should expand my search area. Mate has started truck driving again so I could look farther afield and still not have to go that far!
NICE solar ground mount array in the background too!
What is that, about 6KW?
The solar array belongs to the fellow that sold me the generator, he operates a bed and breakfast for livestock. Which is kind of amusing, cattle being sent to slaughter after so many hours in transit must be watered and fed with so many hours layover.
He recently expanded the operation and purchased a larger generator which is used only for standby power should the grid go down.
He purchased the Petter used fourteen years ago and spoke fondly of the old girl, like she was a family member heading off to college.
There's a story behind that old Chevy and it should not have been used for that trip, my significant other half was pulling a power trip about taking the Dodge Ram. So I purchased a 7 day permit for the junker.
Woman after menopause, end of story.
Now to make room in my man cave then unload the generator into her new home.
