two stroke generators,

Same here mate.

I am on my 3rd from Bunnings.

The first one was never started as it P E E 'D fuel out of the Tank seam when first fueled.

No. 2 for some reason (unknown) just started P E E I N G fuel out of the seal where the fuel tap joins the tank.

Member 'Des Lexic' suggested it is because the Chinese haven't got their fuel/rubber(seals) match up to standard yet. I think he is right.

May I suggest that you buy it from Bunnings. They are a $168 there as well and with the GMC badged model you get 2yrs warranty. Also there is never a question on a Bunnings return.

For me, this type of generator suits my purpose perfectly - running power tools when town power is not available.

Other than the fuel they work like a dream.

So gennies are NOT banned in all Qld nat parks , get ur facts right before u post.

U obviously didn't visit the Govt site. When u do you will see quite clearly what the site says about Generators in Qld National Parks.

They are banned in all national parks with exceptions are made only in specific cases. Beach camping on Fraser being one of them It is the only place in the Great Sandy NP that u can use them.

The Govt site is quite specific, as is their printed literature.

So, I stand by what I said. Check out the site and read for yourself. I can add no more than that.

Cheers

Read your own answer to the original posted question,, you state that gennies are banned in ALL Qld national parks,, my reply asks is fraser a national park ?? as said before get ur facts straight before u deem to give advise,,Fraser and Moreton islands are both national parks and u and anyone else can use a gennie.

You can use a gennie on the beach as I said and no where else.

But I really can not contribute any further to a discussion where one party in the discussion will not go off and read the information offered by the other party.

So, you may believe what you wish. There is no law against that.

You can maintain you are right and I will hold to what I orginally said and maintain I am right.

Cheers

Have read all the information and physicaly go to the national parks and use my gennie and have contact with the park rangers on the ground and u are wrong in ur statement that gennies are banned in ALL Qld national parks,, not just the beach ,, try kenilworth ect.
