I just bought a 4104 with an 8KW water cooled diesel gen.
I never heard of this brand but everything I can find on the net seems to indicate it is pretty good.
The PO says it has a Kubota engine but I can't find the name anywhere except on the fuel and oil filters.
Anyone have any experiences with these?
Thanks. |

Yes,
I have a Power-tech 15 kw. It is basically a Kubota with PowerTech name on it. Ours works great and has 14,000 hrs. |

I had a 17.5 Power Tech for three years that I bought used and it worked great. It had a Kubota engine. I now have an 8 kw with the Cat engine and it also goes great. The service dept. is very helpful if needed. They are in Leesburg, Florida. |

Just bought a 8kw with the Cat motor. Haven't used it much at all, but they were very nice to deal with. |

I have a 12 kw Powertech with a Cat. I have had great luck so far. I would recommend this gen. to anyone looking for a very good and quite unit. |

Thanks to all, and all are very positive, good news to this newbie!!
Another question, does anyone know of the best place in Arkansas for bus work and especially a good 671 mechanic?
I'm just about as close to Memphis as I am Little Rock. Also about the same distance from Springfield, MO |

You might ask them if they have any used units. I got a slightly used unit for a good discount off retail price. |
