Generator related questions

John:
Thank you very much. Just what I needed. I had figured out the oil
and fuel filters today at NAPA but the rest of the those numbers are
just what I was looking for. For some reason, the numbers in the
manual for the Kohler in my bluebox are not the correct ones for my
generator. Those switches look familiar also. I'll check when I go to
the storage lot tomorrow to change the oil in the generator.
I noticed there was some weeping on either the low oil pressure shut
off sender or the gauge sender so those numbers will be of immediate
use.
