Has anyone used a syphon tube droped into a vehicle gas tank as a fuel source on the Honda ? I was looking at the line going to my aux tank and just wondered...
While I haven't tried it, I don't think it would work in my case. I don't think the Honda runs very well on diesel. Kidding aside, I don't see why it wouldn't...
... Probably not. I've tried to siphon from a 2002 motorhome, a 1999 Saturn Car, a 2004 Suzuki Grand Vitara and there is a blockage to prevent the siphon hose...
No can do on the syphon bit on vehicles in present day era. When gasoline was not available during the week after "Rita" and no electricity in Gulf coast area,...
You can't use a siphon hose to feed a Honda for running purposes. To siphon, both the upper and lower receptacles have to be vented to atmosphere. The...
I t appears I missed some messages concerning siphoning gasoline from automobiles during an emergency. The experiences of those who suffered throough the ...
Bruce, I'm a little confused here... Why would storing 2 gallons of gas be any safer than storing 15 or 20? As long as they are in proper containers and...
... Of course the time to find out all of the above information is before you need it <g>. I find that one cannot siphon gas from modern automobiles. There...
Hello All, I am considering purchasing an EU2000i to run an A/C unit. I have a Honda ex1000 and a eu1000i. The ex1000 will start and run my 5,500 btu A/C...
... I have the Coleman EF 13,5000 btu AC and 1 2000 ran it this summer without any pronlem. ***************************************** BOONDOCKING in the...
... I tested my eu2000 on my MH's 15,000 btu AC at Death Valley, 300 ft BELOW sea level and it worked. Sluggish start of the compressor, but after the...
Another point to consider is some A/C units have "soft start" or "easy start" kits already installed in them while others do not. The kit runs about $50 or...
Use great caution tapping into modern automotive fuel systems with fuel injection -- They operate at much higher fuel pressures than the older carburated...
You best have your ducks in a row if there is a remote chance that you will lose all outside power. IMO, depending on fuel from your vehicle for your emergency...
My Honda EU2000i is now even quieter! Boondocking on rocky, sandy, or muddy ground can be a problem for the generator sitting on the ground. I have been using...
Tell us more! Does the generator just sit right on this foam? Is it the slick-type foam for a float or the squishy type used in noodles? It must be hard...
Woke up at 3am this morning to find we had no power in the house. No power = no heat. Got up and dug the Honda 2000 out of the 5ver. At -20 degrees F, it...
That's a good idea Dave... My daughter wore out the electronics in one of those red octane dance pads (it's for a PS2 video game you "dance" on buttons on the ...
Greetings, I uploaded a photo of my sound dampening pad for the EU2000. Just can't believe how well it works! Amazing! Sounds like an EU1000. The photo is...
I just remembered that I got an e-mail from Yahoo! that the photos section will soon have different features. Apparently, we will no longer have folders in...
I keep my honda in the house, nice and warm. Is there some reason why you would not do this? Dean ... From: Ron Day To: Honda_EU2000_Generators@yahoogroups.com...
Best reason I can think of is gas fumes. Even if you turn the gas cap vent to off, you still get some fumes. Not a good idea to potentially have gasoline fumes...
I kept mine in the back seat of my crew cab truck for 10 days in Baja and never once smelled gas. That was over some pretty rough dirt roads/trails so it got...
... AWWWW, the 2000 is a quieter unit than the 1000, so it sounds like your going backwards <g> The 3000 is quieter that either the 1000 or 2000, doesn't seem...
Thanks to mchero over on RV.net, I put some links to Honda EU2000i parts listed over on Boats.net. There are three links under the Links section that all...
