When switching from gasoline to propane, or propane to gasoline, you're supposed to shut the generator off first. As you discovered, it throws the gen into a fit when you do it on the fly.
Wow I typed this generator in the search bar and your video was the only one that shows up do know you if this generator has an auto start port or something like that I have a renogy solar inverter and it was a autogen start option which means if there is a compatible generator it will automatically turn it on when the battery bank is low
You never opened the choke after it started. Thus the engine shaking on fuel and loading up on propane after the switch over. Choke is only for starting and instantly open the choke after she fires up. Just a reflex after using generators for work for years. Its a great unit. I have the exact one except 12k watts.
That's what I keep telling people. There are several dual generators now that can be changed over while running. You can tell I was even running rough on gasoline because he didn't have the choke open...of it was, the change over would have worked.
@@Po7ent i love mine. I only run it on propane so i dont have to deal with carb getting gummed up for long term storage. Runs my entire 38’ travel trailer also. Best one ive found for the money. I have the 12k.
Wow, not sure what's up with that gen, but it ran like poop on gasoline, and then doggy poop when you switched it over to propane. Hope you got it working.
I gave you a thumbs down, because right when you switched it to propane you ended the video. I was just getting into this...you realize this is the reason we are watching this?? Because of the dual fuel...

Actually you can change it over while it's running, he just didn't have the choke open.
You could tell because it was even running rough while on gas.
hey smarty on this model you can it is clearly written
Why did you end the video after switching to propane when it sounded like it was crapping out?
Your video ends right when you are switching to propane ?
How many hours on a full tank?

Why would the 240 outlet of generator only output 215 but when checking each leg to ground it does give me 120?
Do the math and you might want to learn a little bit more about electricity and how it works
@@johnbennett9149 sorry I edited the message, do you know why this would be now?
Yes sir because that's the way it's supposed to be 120 per leg 120 and 120 makes 240
@@johnbennett9149 please read the comment i get 215 when checking leg to leg but 120 on each leg
@@johnbennett9149 it should make 240 since I am getting 120 on each leg but it is not, it is giving me 215 total instead of 240

Would you recommend this generator?

Why can it work on both at the same time 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
can it work with natural gas? (metano)
Sounds not too good when you switch to propane from petrol...
Probably because he switched it on the fly rather then turning the engine off. Probably low pressure in propane line
Pulsar use what type oil engine ?
4 cycle engine oil SAE10w-30
You are not supposed to sniff gasoline.
