Is this generator a tri-fuel ?

The way it is configured now, it's only gasoline. I'm sure it could be re-configured for alternative fuels.

I don't think it can, I'm not 100% sure. Why don't you try the generac website. I do know that the smaller generator does come propane ready, BUT I recall reading that it will run 4.5 hrs at half load on a 20 lb cylinder or propane. That is the same size your gas grill uses. I don't know where you live but here in penna that costs me 15 dollars to fill that cylinder. So I'm not sure why you would want propane over Gas. I'm quite happy with my 8000 gas and will continue to use it. Hope this helps answer your question.

I have ran mine for 8 hours under a full load and kept filling the tank, while the generator ran. Has been a great little generator. Just want to run the generator out of fuel while shutting of the gas.

I am not sure. I purchased the generator as a Christmas gift for my daughter and her husband.

No. Sorry. I bought a gas generator by mistake. I called the Company and they told me that none of their generators can be converted.

My apologies, I took the generator to a vacation home and have no means of finding out this information at this time. It's a nice generator though!

Yes there is. Or you can buy one already converted. They have an official distributor in the US doing tri-fuel conversions on them.

The are designed to run on gasoline, mine is quiet an powers the house with no problem. I had a 6250 W generator that I was able to convert to LP for my Sister-in-law with a kit from US Carboration. It was easy to install, I think they also have natural gas kits. Some kits will run gas, lp, and natural gas. Check out their website: http://uscarburetion.com/

Yes you can. The "how" is always a question of having all the necessary parts and a little bit of know how with ordinary tools. You are better off buying a whole kit from one of the suppliers like Hydro Club USA that puts together all the things you need such as a water tank, hoses and clamps, wires and so on along with step by step instructions. One of the key issues is to have a way to take care of the fact that your on board computer won't understand this new fuel mix. So you need a special electronic device to balance things out. This is all easy to do when the company you buy from has a good technical support team to walk you through and difficulties. You need more than the HHO generator but when you save about a quarter of your fuel bill the added expense and effort will pay for itself many times over!

It was included, it's been a great generator. I've only run it on propane. It runs a vacuum and a carpet cleaner at the same time, about 25 amp draw with no problems.

The generator listed #56352 is a gas unit. No oil mixing with gas. It runs on regular.

Yes, but it had a different fuel inlet than the original one on my 2002yr generator which had the fuel filter going right into the carb. Instead of the fuel filter being attached to the carb I have to put a filter inline before the carb with fuel line attaching it. Not a big deal.

Nope! I made the mistake. I put this on a 5kw generator with 11hp motor. The flow with gravity feed is such a slight trickle that the unit starves for gas in just a few minutes. It's obviously for a system with a fuel pump. It does however appear to be better made than similar filters I've used on pumped systems so the few I bought won't go to waste.

Your husband probably mixed oil in the gas. He probably has power equipment that requires premix, like a chain saw. You probably then put the premix in your generator, rather than pure gas.

You would need to change the pressure regulator and jets to run the generator off natural gas. The gases are compatible, but the delivery pressure is different, hence the need to change a couple parts.

I'd say the generator is medium in engine noise; it is not a quiet running engine nor is it disturbingly loud
