    Unicor NF2D Light Tower/Genset

    Replying to my own thread - replaced the breaker, and I now have power on the 15A receptacle again, though I'm almost wishing I would've bumped it up to 20A. If I ever used it for an actual home backup, I'd want the extra amperage to account for startup amps on refrigerators (mine pull about 15A...

    Unicor NF2D Light Tower/Genset

    Any specific size on the tube? I actually thought about that. Or is the tube the same size as the tire? I don't own anything with tires this small, and the only tubed tires I have are on my diesel tractors. Maybe because it's a small displacement head? My TDIs have aluminum heads and run at...

I wouldn't use a Chinese knockoff, ever. One thing I do need to do is a coolant flush. I've been trying to transition...

    Unicor NF2D Light Tower/Genset

    Long time lurker, but haven't been on in a while. This is currently my only military surplus genset. I switched out the ballast and bulbs to MH not long after I bought it, and replaced old fuel lines. That said, it runs a bit too cool for my tastes. Does anyone know if I can get a hotter t-stat...
