convert gas generator to propane
Has anyone done this conversion on a Onan 4K and what was the cost and where did you find the best price on parts needed. Thanks John

Of those 23 responses, about 14 of them have stated to some degree that you shouldn't make the conversion. Not knowing how you use your generator I won't assume to know what's best for you, but will say it all depends on your usage model. I have a propane 4k Onan, and it's a good choice for the way I use it. In 10 years, I've needed it for the air conditioner about 2 times. I don't use it to charge the battery because it's so darn noisy, using a small portable generator instead. The Onan gets used infrequently for short periods of time, more often than not for running the microwave. Having to top off the propane a bit more often is a lot easier for me than worrying about old fuel and/or a gummed up carburetor.

And I just made it worse with another post that doesn't answer your questions.
