My opinion. You have just barely enough. Don't get mad....todays homes are power hogs. Turn everything off, turn the well on first. Bet that generator bogs down a little. If your house is all electric like range top waterheater etc. you don't have enough. Also if you have a high efficiency heater with natural gas the power must not bog down or drift frequency cause it can blow the control board. Not telling you to panic it is just you need to turn on only what you need and no more. Fridge, heater controls, water pump and that is about it. Equipment from even twenty years ago was very forgiving. Not so much todays stuff. My next door neighbor does HVAC. After a major power outage and people run a generator and have no idea and turn everything on at one time. The next several days he is running around changing power boards at several hundred $$$$$ a pop. Get a digital meter that measures frequency . You need to check your generators output and keep it there. You want as close to 60 cycles as possible. Also you want to run your generator on Hi-test gas. Beleave me on this. Let us see what others say about what you need. Most people I know that have recently purchased a generator went for a 9000 watt unit. Duel fuel is really a good idea cause you can run it on gasoline and you can keep several 20lb. Propane tanks in the back shed. One of those tanks is good for about 8 hours.

Today's Featured Article - Tuning-Up Your Tractor: Secondary Ignition Wires and Distributor - by Curtis Von Fange. In our last episode we spent the entire day checking out the spark plugs. Is that efficency? Actually, it took more time to explain than it really did to do the inspection. At any rate we decided that a compression test was in order so we could verify the internal engine status. That way we wouldn't buy any tune up parts until we were sure that the engine was in reasonable mechanical condition. Our tests showed a fictional compression reading of 85, 80, 82 and 86 psi. That is well within a
