Fixit,
I just looked out in the genhouse and found I have on hand: One, a Facet Onan part #149-2272 fuel pump and a Holley 12-804 1-4 PSI Fuel Pressure Reg. Never tried the two together as I am a follower more than a leader. Do you have a Chinese genny? If so, maybe you might see what you can do and give us a report.

Floyd,
I wish I could test for you however, since my onan did not fit on my current 5er and my ELIM was a little noisy for me plus I did not like transporting gens again, I opted for the EU3000 since a friend was selling it and it fit in my "mini cave". I am giving the ELIM to my sister-in-law for her trailer so I don't want to mod it.
As Professor stated, these Chinese gens should take about.5 psi so you would need a regulator that could handle that. I wish I had the time to tinker like some of you but with raising 3 little ones, there is not much time so I opted for equipment that I can use pretty much out of the box.
BTW.. my Onan fuel pump had no problems lifting the fuel out of the tank that was two feet under it. Keep in mind that the onan's have 2 cylinders and a larger carb so you might want to find a smaller pump and regulator if these exist.
Maybe you can lead us on this one ;)
