Generator woes

[Scott]

Todd, sorry about comming in late to the discussion. I also HAD
Kohler/Perkins problems and the Kohler folks just wanted to "buy and
throw parts at the problem" After about 3K I said uncle and decided
to go new. I too have a new PowerTech 12kw genset and could not be
happier. It was put in our 86FC the install was "creative" to say the
least but none the less it is great. Reliable, QUIET, and new
technology. You will not go wrong with a PowerTech. They are quality
guys.

BUT I have my 12.5kw Kohler/Perkins complete unit still and for sale.
It has about 1800 hrs on it, tons of new part on the Kohler, and the
Perkins runs like a sewing machine, and does not leak a drop of oil.
If interested contact me offline cme4boat(at)aol(dot) com.
