[AT] A little Off Topic - Fuel usage

[Jerry Rhodes]

Farmer, the Dason 4 cyl I had with a std 4 speed tranny in 4th gear turning 
a 8kw gen would use about 7 gal in 24 hrs under about 20 to 70 % load. That 
would be running an 220vac well pump, refig, freezer, 2-3 lights my ham 
radio, etc..O it ran at 780 rpms
