I did some more inspection on this generator while we where back home for thanksgiving. Its an Onan 5.0cck, which seems to have a cult like following on smokestack. I have been reading over there but have still not been able to get an answer on my question of ng to lp, I guess I will post and find out. Turned out this unit is only a 5 kw not the 15 kw I was told but I think it will be plenty to run the house since I have lp heat, lp hot water heater, lp cook top /oven, and newer appliances. It is a neat little generator, looks to be made in the sixty's or seventy's and only has 100 hrs on it and the operating rpm is only 1800 and has electric start. Im going to dig it out from its retirement at christmas and haul it home, my main concern now is I think it has been sitting for around 25 years but it has been stored in a dry building. Pictures to follow later in the month
