Does anyone know where I can get Bill Rodgers book "Home Power Producers Guide to Electrical Reality".  Utterpower.com says they are sold out.

Hi SteveU,

Thanks for the welcome.

My memory failed me again.  The engine is an in-line twin not a V-twin, and it is an overhead cam with an external timing belt.
I can't find the model number, only the 359 cc marking.  I'll try to get some pictures up when I start working on it.

Craigslist has supplied me with a 3813 Honda lawn tractor.  It has a 13 hp water cooled V-twin engine.  I still find them listed from time to time. I also picked up a 5 hp, 230 volt, single phase, 3515 rpm induction motor from Craigslist.  I would like to get them put together before winter. 
I plan to get it working on gasoline then convert it to natural gas after working some of the bugs out.  I'm going to set it up for a 2 KW output and recover as much heat as possible.  I'm hoping that being connected to the grid will give a fairly constant load for the governor to maintain.
