Propane generators

Help Me, please......

This is all the stuff I got off my generator-
TroyBuilt 5550 watt but it also says Briggs Stratton
8550 starting watts/ 10 HP OHV

Looks like this-

 

Here's a guide to identify B&S engine models
FAQ: Finding Serial & Engine Model Number | Briggs & Stratton

With the model number of the engine you can find the correct conversion kit.

 

You will have to pretty much stand on your head to get the correct information.
90% of the time the tag is at the bottom of the front cowling.
The Ventura is the same size on the 10 Briggs American vs the metric Briggs
This is very important when ordering a kit, Basically one is American 1/4 threads and the metric I think is 4 mm threads
That's the only real difference.

 

Did you know that a diesel engine can burn almost any flammable combustible fuel along with diesel fuel?
Look up diesel intake fumigation.
They can run propane, natural gas, alcohol along with diesel fuel.
Running diesel engines off diesel fuel and a mixture of air and natural gas has been done since the 1930s.
I wouldn't advise trying gasoline.

 

Yeah, We were doing 70/30 mix on 12 V 71's Nat.Gas and Diesel

 

Diesel is needed , !!
I've been on methane run converted Diesels with sparks instead of injectors .

 

There is a Cummins engine plant just down the road from me that makes most if not all the spark ignition Cummins natural gas engines for the entire world.

I have seen that diesel engines can be built to use up to 95% natural gas.

Might also be worth noting that a 20lb propane tank is only equal to about 3 gallons of gasoline.
So unless you have at least several full hundred pound bottles (each one still only about 16 gallons worth of gasoline) or a 500 gallon tank it seems kind of pointless.
