    Would this be worth getting fixed?

    Since it has been very poorly maintained, not likely. Expensive repairs - $500 + to fix Oil leak, sharpen blades, check belts etc. Get Compression checked FIRST if going the repair route.

    Propane conversion for my Storm Responder 5500-watt generator

    Do NOT engage your blades at idle. Belts are stretching.. Blades are NOT to be a knife edge but actually square, 0.050 vertical gives 2 cutting edges. This Topic should be ended now.

    So the Cone is at the Other edge. 3/16" difference from centre.. Still centre of weight distrubution. It's not the Space Shuttle per "Terryl". !
