Safe to keep gas generator inside van?

[ttpadilla]

Thank you for that, I was wondering what gas cans had to do with carburetors...

At least you were thinking carburetors. I kept reading "carbohydrates"! lol

We need an acronym stickie around here...

I had an awful time with a bunch of them when I first joined...CT, TT, S&B were all foreign language to me!

And the electrical stuff, well that just made my eyes roll in the back of my head...

I have a Yamaha 2000 watt gas powered generator. Is it safe to keep it inside the van? I rarely use it. Should I worry about potential gas fumes or the thing possibly exploding?

Thanks,
Casey

My Honda 2000i has ridden 275k miles inside with me. I just keep the vent closed on the cap then open it when it is outside running.

I'm with you on the electrical stuff. As for the other acronyms, I think TT is travel trailer, and I'm still lost on everything else. lol

Oh, I eventually managed to figure out what everyone was talking about! Some days it was hours later that lights went on in my brain.

The electrical stuff, well, I'm almost figuring it out..crunch time comes in a few weeks when I have to start wiring the van.

Now if I could only figure out how to use my good camera on anything but auto...
