FUEL REQUIREMENTS
The NP-66G generator is equipped with a gasoline fuel
system as standard equipment. Specific installations
may provide either a separate fuel tank for the gener­
ator, or the generator may “share" the vehicle engine's
fuel tank.
NOTE: Some installations using a “shared” fuel tank
may have a generator fuel pickup tube that is shorter
than the vehicle engine’s pickup tube. Such an arrange­
ment causes the generator engine to “run out of gas”
while adequate fuel in the vehicle remains in the tank.
To reduce lead and carbon deposits use high quality
UNLEADED gasoline with the generator. Leaded
REGULAR grade gasoline is an acceptable substitute.
NOTE: Using “Unleaded” gasoline contributes to
longer engine valve life by reducing lead and carbon
deposits.
CAUTION: Generac does not recommend using
any gasoline containing alcohol (such as “gaso-
hoi”). If you use any gasoline containing aicohol, it
must not contain more than 10 percent ethanoi and
it must be removed from the tank during storage.
Do NOT use any gasoiine containing methanol. If
you use gasoline with alcohoi, inspect more fre­
quently for fuel leaks and other abnormalities.
ENGINE OIL REQUIREMENTS
Use a high quality detergent oil classified “For Service
SP and with an oil viscosity rating of SAE 10W-30 oil.
Do not pour in any additives to the recommended oil.
Engine crankcase capacity is 1.5 U.S. quarts. See
MAINTENANCE section for oil level check and filling
procedures.
