Can you use this in a generator? My generator is burning a little oil.

Yes, this is essentially pure petroleum that can be used in any application where motor oil is used. Try this or try running Mobil 1 High Mileage in your generator. That made a world of difference in my father's generator.

yes, no question. Just let it burn for some hours after setting it up to burn off the oils used in manufacture. Just be careful. Regard the other posts -

Sorry, I can not answer that question as we have never used it with a generator.

Call or email the company for this. I have a Generac 20K house generator on natural gas.

If you have natural gas at your residence the generator can run for months at a time as long as the oil is changed on a regular basis, if you have propane it will run as long as the tank is filled on a regular basis

no, there is no oil filter with this generator. It will turn off if the oil is too low

I use Yamalube generator oil, it is not a two stroke, the oil and gas are separate.

They make kit to hook the generator into your power system for your house. If you are not experienced, then have an electrician do it. You could cause a lot of damage if you tried it yourself.

It's not recommend . I was told by the company to use an Ethanol treatment in the gas. This generator you do not mix oil in the gas . That means it needs oil put in it .

If you use the generator only in warm temps, I would say yes. If used below 50 deg frequently I would not recommend it.

I use it in my lawnmower and whole house generator. Any air cooled engine will run cooler using this oil. Used in all my automobiles for the past 15 years as well.

Don't think so.your generator at that wattage should have a 30 amp twist on it I would think

I don't know what the Horse Power is on your Well motor, but I'm sure it isn't more then the generators output. If your well motor is less then 20 amps you won't have any problems. I know you read my review on this generator, and this generator is a good unit, but I really recommend the Champion Power Equipment 46533 it's a little bit more money, but me and my coworkers think it's worth the difference. It's only $50 dollars more, but if you don't have the extra cash then this one will work fine. Don't for get to use synthetic oil! You really don't need any special equip, just make sure you have a extenuation cord that plugs into the generator. Good Luck on your project.

No, it would overheat the generator. It would also get in the way of plugging in the power cords, and refueling. It is a storage cover.

Are you plugging this into the generator? I don't see why it wouldn't work...

That will only do 5000 watts sorry. Swith not large enough for your generator
