I am a reformed Honda Engine dealer, last that I knew Honda built NO engines to run on propane.
It seems that after 400 or so hours they had a bad habit of dropping a valve from lack of lubrication (or so I ASSume) to the valve train I have seen 3 or 4 engines do that, and I have only seen 4 or 5 Honda engines with propane conversions. There are companies that do the conversions and just handle the warranty on their own.

It is a Honda EU 6500 converted to run on propane. It is sweet. I haven't found out yet if the conversion cancelled the warranty. This would be too small for Allen's current project, but it seems like a good solution for many systems. Drake Chamberlin ATHENS ELECTRIC LLC OH License 44810 CO license 3773 NABCEP Certified PV
