Something to be aware of. I've read Diesel engines last longer when they are being taxed. ESP. when at a constant load like a generator. If you dont have the engine opperating at a RPM that puts a load on the engine you increase the risk of coking the injectors, rings etc.

On a car this coking does not happen as easly because of the moving thru the power band compared to a generator that just stays at one RPM.

With this in mind sounds like your generater head wanting a lower HP than the engine puts out you may have a problem. That being said though from what I have read some suggested that an occasional alcohol injection or water injection might be help clean things and could maybe avoid the coking problem.

Why dont you run this thing on Waste Vege oil fuel?
