You're welcome Katie! Glad I could help!

That's a great idea!

Thanks!

Again, Great video! Now for the bad news. It does not fit the new model generator. The latest model Predator 9000 has a different air box. The inlet is in a bad spot. I had to loosen the bracket that goes to the new carburetor and leave it dangling so I could rout the air inlet behind it. I still made it work but my carb inlet is dangling so I will have to strap it up with a zip tie or something.

Dustin S I bought a big Champion generator at Rural King instead it’s dual fuel already set up out of the 📦 box

Here is a reminder about portable generator safety: This advice is just to make sure that everyone is aware of all the warnings and it’s just to remind people to be careful using portable generators. Everyone has to see this safety reminder for safety. Every year, hundreds of people die or get injured when using portable generators due to carbon monoxide poisoning and electrocution. Make sure you are using your generator carefully and keeping others safe as well. There is something very serious that everyone should always be aware of when using generators. Some people do run their generator indoors which is not safe and that increases the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning which can cause death of family and you. Some people run their generator in wet conditions which can electrocute them. Please remember that you should never run your generator indoors. Remember that carbon monoxide is an odorless and colorless gas that you cannot see or smell. Carbon monoxide is a silent killer. Keep that in mind. Make sure your generator is 15-20 feet away from your house and away from doors, windows, and vents. Never use your generator in your porch too. Having a carbon monoxide detector is very important against generator safety. Some people also allow children to go near the portable generator which could pose risks. We need to keep an eye on our children making sure that they are not near the portable generator so they won’t get electrocuted or burned by the generator which is dangerous. A locking enclosure also keeps kids safe. A generator shed might look like a tempting place to explore, or take cover during a game of hide and seek, but a generator is a dangerous piece of equipment that can cause injury. It says on the manual that we should also keep children away at all times from the portable generator to avoid injuries. Please do not allow a child or unqualified people to operate the portable generator. Just because some manuals missed what should be listed doesn’t mean it’s safe to do. Always follow the generator safety rules when using portable generators. Generators pose electrical risks. If you need to use your generator during wet weather, you need a generator tent to protect your generator from getting wet. Don’t let your generator get wet. Keep your generator dry and before using your generator, please make sure your hands and your generator is dry. Do not wear loose clothing when operating the generator. Everything that is said on the generator’s operating manual should not be ignored. Never smoke cigarettes near the generator. Please keep flammable things away from the generator. Never overload your generator too. Your generator can catch fire. Never ever try to plug a generator cord into a wall outlet to avoid back feeding. Back feeding your generator is dangerous. Always turn on your generator first before plugging in appliances and shut off the appliances before turning your generator off. Use a heavy duty cord for your generator and the cord should not be worn out. All the instructions should be followed carefully. Never refuel your generator while it’s running. It can cause fire if fuel spills while your generator is hot. You should turn off your generator and let it cool off before refueling it. Having a fire extinguisher next to the generator is also important. This is only a reminder for everyone’s safety of using generators. Make sure your generator is properly grounded. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-I1jT3ANENvI.html and here is a video more about keeping others safe when using generators and also about our family’s safety. Hope this helps. Thank you. Be safe. All generator safety rules are needed to be followed carefully.

Yes you will always need to shut off the propane at the source. Let me know how the conversion goes.

Hey Soat Mon, I completed my conversion today but had to do some modifications to the air intake box. I actually have a 2020 model 8750 and Predator switched the location of the air intake hose. The air intake box is actually entirely different than the one on your 9000. The fuel tank air hose is on the side of the 9000 but on the back of my 8750. Long story short I found another video thankfully that actually addressed a work around. Not a huge deal breaker and we are in business! 👌

@@trinityacreshomestead4147 which video did you find to address the newer 2020 predator 9000? What modifications were required? Thanks

@@mintytoo if you have the 9000 I believe you will be able to complete the conversion without the modification. I have the 8750 and it required the work around. Don’t fret it either way though. If you have even basic ingenuity skills I’m sure you can figure it out. Keep doing searches until you find what you need. Good luck 👍

@@mintytoo Probably referring to this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Cf4_73UmvNE.html

The benefit to me is that I can run it off of my propane tank that will run it for days.

Gasoline left in the generator becomes stale and useless, gas tanks accumulate rust and sediment, gasoline may be hard to find in a large power outage.

Sounds like a kindred spirit. Glad you figured it out and got it to work for you. Thanks for letting me know!

You are welcome!

Thanks Gary!

You bet!

You shouldn't need the chock on propane. I would cover the nipple when not in use to keep out dirt, bugs etc. Good luck with your install!

Thanks!

Let me know how it goes!

I would appreciate hearing how it loads on NG . Thanks

I did as I said...worked fine. And runs great on ng. Thanks for the video

So this carb works on natural gas from the house? The Amazon link say gasoline and propane?

Typical corporate control freak move. Glad you got it running. Carb needs a modified airbox sold with it now 😀

Thanks for your input!\

Thanks for sharing your experience.

flow screw is probably for the gasoline, read thru most of this and seems adjusting the gas pressure at the regulator should help. Some here running less than 1 lb pressure

The electrical wire on the bottom of the float bowl is to stop the gasoline from entering the engine after the engine has been turned off. It is not technically needed on propane or natural gas. The tubing with the spring on the outside goes to the float bowl to drain the gasoline when changing over from gasoline to propane or natural gas. At 0:03 I believe is the mixture screw for smooth running. It is in front of his index finger.

If you tap into your house supply, nothing extra is needed

*NOT FOR NATURAL GAS !!!* the link provided takes you to Amazon where product description says LP/CNG conversion kit. CNG is Compressed Natural Gas which is not the utility being fed to your house thru a gas line. This is the pressurized version they use in some city buses and truck fleets. You can get a carburetor for household natural gas, but it is not the one shown in this video !

Everyone really needs to watch this video about generator safety ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-I1jT3ANENvI.html

It's just a standard pressure regulator like you would use for a BBQ grill.

Not sure what that could be, it sounds like something is stuck open. Maybe you got a defective one? Hope it works out for you.

it could also be the regulator valve you use on the tank. The first time i did one of these conversions the generator wouldn't stay/start running and it seemed like gas was leaking. I found an adjustable regulator and set it pretty low it started and ran great and didn't leak. These do not need much gas pressure to function(and in my case too much was preventing it from running properly)

It does do 220v Two 3-Prong, duplex NEMA #5-20 120 V GFCI One 3-Prong, NEMA #L5-30 twistlock 120 V One 4-Prong, NEMA #L14-30 twistlock 120 V / 240 V One DC Outlet 12 VDC The wires on the carburetor are to shut off the fuel if you lose oil pressure. I hadn't seen them on a small engine either.

Yes, once converted it will run on either one.

It will run on propane (LPG), natural gas (NG), or gasoline.

No this carburetor will use propane/natural gas or gasoline that is what it means by dual fuel. You just turn a valve to choose which one. It's confusing because it says dual fuel and then talks about LPG and CNG but they are counting those two as one option and gasoline as the other. I have used it on gasoline and propane but have not used it on natural gas. Hope that helps!

Just make sure the carburetor says it will work with natural gas and you should be good!

I was worried about that as well when I bought it but it seems to work fine and appeared to be the exact same carburetor as the original just with the propane port. I figured for the cost why not try it and it worked out.

I don't really know to be honest. I saw multiple people suggest it and it makes since as gasoline has some lubrication in it and I figured that may help the piston seat better and since it comes set up for gas I figured why not break it in that way. Good luck with your generator.

It's not my kit, I just bought it off Amazon. Sorry I don't know if it would work for your application.

I don't know for sure but they look identical to me except for the propane port.

It'll work

Can you give a reference to what you are asking about? Maybe a timestamp in the video showing the part?

Sorry no. I run it off the tank that feeds my house and I don't notice the difference .

Sorry I don't know the answer to your question. Good luck with the new carb, I bet it will fit

It hasn't and the two carburetors look identical except for the propane port.

@@StevensStuff brilliant, my man. Thank you.

@@Ungovernable74 was trying to figure it out myself, found it and figured I'd share. seems a 5/8 hose has a 3/8 inner diameter as well. So I ordered this one....www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NO1O6ZC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

nip the tip and hose clamp it, at least that's my plan.

@@StevensStuff well, I did the conversion, installed the hose I bought from your link and I can seem to get it started on propane. Gas is fine. I've experimented with different pressures on the dial and I can get it to start. Have you had any luck?

That's the one I have been using.

I don't know the size of the hose you bought but it should be the right size. Can you tell by the size of the fitting on either end of it? Good luck and I'm glad it worked out for you.

@@SoatMon I also bought the grill propane regulator but I'm having trouble getting it to run.. I switch on and prime the propane but it won't run.. Can you help?

Hold primer button for about 3sec. Once I got it started I had to adjust the orange valve that controls the flow for Ng or lp once I did that it worked great

I don't really know. There are too many variables. Start with the basics to figure it out. You have to have fuel, air and spark. Make sure you have all 3.

@@SoatMon You don't use a choke for natural gas or propane.

Glenn Felpel yes it will you will need a L 14 twist lock plug and flexible 10/3 wire the twist lock plug on that generator will do 220 @ 30 amps

Thank you - I wanted to use if for our well pump and the 30 amps will be just fine. Thanks again. William

I'm running natural gas from my garage hook up to my amazon carb and it runs great, If you get the natural gas/propane carb you don't need to do anything to the air box.

I use it with my home LP tank. You should just need to run a line to it.

Thanks, got it on order!

Ever figure it out? Might be the regulator.

Unfortunately I don't have a lot of information to help you. I use it as a backup generator and haven't needed it since I set it up other than testing it a couple of times. I would definitely do it again. The carburetor I put on is identical to the one I took off except for the propane part. They look like they are made by the same factory. Good luck with yours!

I think it would work from what others have said but have not tested it myself as I only use propane. Some of the reviews on Amazon said that it worked for them...but on real life experience for me.

I have not done it but the carburetor shown is supposed to also do natural gas.

Yeah I was worried about the size of the carb as well but as I read the reviews on it others had used it for the 8750 generator so I gave it a try. Works great, as I said in the video I think it's the exact same carb with a propane jet. I don't know of any damage that a lack of propane would cause, just low power if you are not delivering enough but I have not had that issue. Good luck on yours, I hope it works well for you!

* I bought a variable presure regulator and run it less than one pound. Once the engine is running the regulator can be adjusted -- if too lean or rich the motor runs rough. * There is a valve at the bottom of the regulator to drain the GASOLINE float bowl. GREAT as GAS gums and corrodes the carburetor, and I will NEVER run gasoline again. * LP gas BURNS CLEAN, combusts with a little less force, so the engine should last MUCH LONGER.

Charles Clever thanks for the info. I still haven’t even started my generator. I’ve decided to put it out by my shop instead of by my house. I can back feed from there and the generator will be far enough away so I should barely hear it. Trying to finish up the electrical and plumbing now.

I was concerned about that too but the carb and throat sizes are identical so it shouldn’t affect the aspiration at all. I’m sure there are adjustments if needed. Great vid, thanks.

Generator safety first ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-I1jT3ANENvI.html hope you stay safe

Sorry I don't know how to adjust it. I think the valve turns off the gasoline.

@@SoatMon Natural gas would be a different orifice size (I believe much smaller)

LPG is the same as propane.

Thank's Soat now I can put the carburetor on.

Yes we are

Thanks for sharing.

After you shut off the fuel you can drain the carburetor with that valve in the on position and then put it back to off to run propane.

This advice is just to make sure that everyone is aware of all the warnings and it’s just to remind people to be careful using portable generators. Generators can be dangerous if not used carefully. Every year, hundreds of people die or get injured when using portable generators due to carbon monoxide poisoning and electrocution. Make sure you are using your generator carefully and keeping others safe as well. There is something very serious that everyone should always be aware of when using generators. Some people do run their generator indoors which is not safe and that increases the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning which can cause death of family and you. Some people run their generator in wet conditions which can electrocute them. Please remember that you should never run your generator indoors. Remember that carbon monoxide is an odorless and colorless gas that you cannot see or smell. Carbon monoxide is a silent killer. Keep that in mind. Make sure your generator is 15-20 feet away from your house and away from doors, windows, and vents. Never use your generator in your porch too. Having a carbon monoxide detector is very important against generator safety. Some people also allow children to go near the portable generator which could pose risks. We need to keep an eye on our children making sure that they are not near the portable generator so they won’t get electrocuted or burned by the generator which is dangerous. A locking enclosure also keeps kids safe. A generator shed might look like a tempting place to explore, or take cover during a game of hide and seek, but a generator is a dangerous piece of equipment that can cause injury. It says on the manual that we should also keep children away at all times from the portable generator to avoid injuries. Please do not allow a child or unqualified people to operate the portable generator. Just because some manuals missed what should be listed doesn’t mean it’s safe to do. Always follow the generator safety rules when using portable generators. Generators pose electrical risks. If you need to use your generator during wet weather, you need a generator tent to protect your generator from getting wet. Don’t let your generator get wet. Keep your generator dry and before using your generator, please make sure your hands and your generator is dry. Do not wear loose clothing when operating the generator. Everything that is said on the generator’s operating manual should not be ignored. Never smoke cigarettes near the generator. Please keep flammable things away from the generator. Never overload your generator too. Your generator can catch fire. Never ever try to plug a generator cord into a wall outlet to avoid back feeding. Back feeding your generator is dangerous. Always turn on your generator first before plugging in appliances and shut off the appliances before turning your generator off. Use a heavy duty cord for your generator and the cord should not be worn out. All the instructions should be followed carefully. Never refuel your generator while it’s running. It can cause fire if fuel spills while your generator is hot. You should turn off your generator and let it cool off before refueling it. Having a fire extinguisher next to the generator is also important. This is only a reminder for everyone’s safety of using generators. Make sure your generator is properly grounded. Having a fire extinguisher next to the generator is also important against the safety rules. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-I1jT3ANENvI.html and here is a video more about keeping others safe when using generators and also about our family’s safety. Hope this helps. Thank you.

No I didn't change the air cleaner. They must be using a different one.

Here is a video showing one guy's "adjustment": ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Cf4_73UmvNE.html

I hadn't thought about the difficulty of actually getting gas from a station to fill it but now that you point it out, that could be a real problem if the outage was wide spread. Thanks for adding your experience.

I got funky stuff when I clicked the link too. The first time, it showed an entirely different carb. The second time, it shows a carb that looks identical, but it says it is for a smaller generator.

Thanks for sharing your experience with the newer style.

"...put the big ol thick adapter on the carburetor..." What adaptor are you installing? This video is about changing out the entire carburetor assembly that requires no modifications.

@@mikejoyce7157 My kit is different than this one. I have the OEM carburetor on the machine, but my kit came with a billet aluminum shim, to place between the carb air intake and the air cleaner box, thick enough to house a threaded, 90° nipple the natural gas flows thru. So yeah, it's different than this one. I was just so excited to finally get it installed and running that I commented on the first video I could find.

@@heinzkitzvelvet So you have something like the "snoorkle" thingy that introduces the propane into the air stream.

@@mikejoyce7157 something like that

Sorry I don't really know, if it will mount up it should work. I would order it and see if it fits if not just send it back.
