You will need to start with an electric start generator. I don't see that with a Yamaha 2800i or 3000i.

Yep, but if he has one he can tell if it is possible. Maybe the four inches is fuel tank. I have never been able to look at one but did see spark plug access low on the side.

" Have not tried to see if my current one 3000i will fit under the RV. Might be fun to try"

Aren't there a lot of gasoline inverter generators in the US market?

None with electric start that will fit where the Onan 2.8 fits. The Honda 3.0 has electric start but is too tall. Don't know...

Look at Telair's website under petrol. An Onan replacement exists! Need 60Hz and 120 volts but it does look like our Onan boat anchors might be on borrowed time.

Somewhere I picked up the info that the engine in the latest Onan 2.8 is made by Subaru. Maybe they should just buy the inverter technology, too!

The best solution, proposed by Booster a while back, is a thermoelectric generator that burns propane (quiet) and produces 5-10 amps 24/7. I think the thermoelectric generators in satellites and Mars...

"The real reason an Onan is called a 4 stroke engine is that the average owner suffers four of them trying to get it to run reliably."
