Does any one have any info on Kilopak generators? New boat has either a 6 or 8kw kilopak with a
3 cylinder Izuzu diesel engine. No manual and I don't have any diesel experience.
The website is pretty worthless. Thanks

Re: kilopak generator
I just bought the boat and don't have a manual. I don't know anything about diesels. I havent tried to start it. it looks to be in good condition. not much use.

Re: kilopak generator
Change the oil and filters every 250 hours, change the impeller every 500 hours, and you will be fine.
Mine has 12,000 hours and going strong. A reliable package.

Be brave, fire it up. See what happens.
If there's oil in it there's not a whole lot you can do to kill it.1978 53' Motor Yacht "LADY KAY V"
