Is anyone using a propane powered generator in their coach? As I was pondering the problems with gasoline degradation, I wondered if running the gen-set from the propane tank would make any sense. It seems that the generators can be converted to run on propane, and you wouldn't have to worry about gumming up the carb as the propane doesn't turn to gel like today's ethanol laced fuels do. When I contacted Generac about the use of ethanol laced fuels in their generators, they recommended using straight, non ethanol laced, gasoline.
