FC Generator Replacement
Hey Scott, Last fall I replaced the genset in our 86FC35 with a
PowerTech 12kw unit and could not be happier. The unit is MUCH quieter than the Kohler and is much more fuel effecient. As another said I think it is several hundred pounds lighter as well. As far as we are concerned we think it was money well spent. NOW if you are looking to simply quiet the noise, I would consider reworking the genset compartment. John F and Woody have redone theirs and I have seen/listened to their units before and after. WOW WHAT A DIFFERENCE. Both have pictures on the forums. This modification is substantially less expensive than a new unit if you are just trying to quiet things a bit. Randy D helped John F and could probably give you some tips or even do it for you... Best of luck ScottB 86FC35 SC --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "Scott Forman" <sforman@...> wrote: > > I've just about had my fill of the FC Kohler generator and its > deafening noise.
