Hi
Can you tell us about the motor?  Is it a motorcycle engine?
Thanks!

I wouldn't say that I'm 'hung up' on any single component. Instead, I tend to scrutinize ALL components... providing it's cost effective to do so. Realistically, if we wish single-out ICE powered genny losses, the engine alone is the single most contributer. Knowing that, I have invested about 6 months and a little over $400 so far in modifications squeezing an estimated 10 HP from 200cc @ 2k RPM (on LPG no less).  So it would be a little disappointing to hang a belt on it.
