    When attaching an external fuel tank, does the tank need a return line to it or can you use the built in 12 gallon tank return? I'm looking at a 150 gallon and they come in 2 different configurations with and without return line fitting. Thanks-

    MEP-003 Max AC Size?

    I'm looking at a MEP-003, what I've read in the forum, and Onan's site is that they are designed to run at short burst of about 300% over the rated 10K. What I am after is to connect it to the 200A Auto Switch (Generac RTS200-A3) I have (already know it will not start the MEP), and run the...
