7 Days now Generac running 10 hrs. with a two hour cool down and back on for 10 more every day.
Burning 1/4 qt 10-30 Synthetic every 24 hrs...
Consuming 100 lbs of propane a day...

Patti & I ran to Wally World at 6:30 this evening, gave Generac an
extra break while gone for an hour and half. Pulled in, hit Auto switch
fired right up, opened garage door went inside unloading our supplies..
All of a sudden total darkness ..
Grabbed flash light to go check old faithful. OverHeat light flashing red !
You know what I said and it was not "Oh my gosh"...
Long story short the two spade lugs to the temp switch were not making
a good connection.. (God bless Google) Cleaned and tightened them up and Varoom...
Generac running smoothly again ! I hate spade lugs in a high vibration
heat situation.... Going to drill holes and put screws with lock nuts
when power comes back on... FP&L is saying Tuesday..
One glimmer of hope was an Asplundh crew was on my driveway today
from 9:30 till 4:30
Only need pole replaced and line crew now.
Seems to be a shortage of poles which makes sense with Texas
taking most of them...
If we get power by Tuesday Patti and I will likely only be able to come
for the Saturday pot luck...
