Hello Professionals in the house ! Please the recommended oil for Firman Eco49990Es i bought recently is 10w - 30. I saw products like mobil, prime guard and prime guard premium on jumia. Mobli is pretty pricey. Please is prime guard a good oil? You can as well recommend alternatives. Thanks |
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by Ambihill: 12:12pm On May 27, 2022 |
Please, in the addition, the Eco49990es fuel consumption is quite high. How do i reduce it? |

earthrealm: 2— what’s a good oil changing interval based on hours. Generator doesn’t take much load, an SPG3000 powering a table side fridge, fan and charges laptop and max 5 phones? 3— what’s are your standard oil products that you can suggest. I’m currently using SEAHORSE. |
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by Gptech(m): 12:52pm On May 27, 2022 |
remi1444:Oil change should be between 60-100 hours max. Assuming oil standards are same, you should be looking at SAE 10w-30 or 20W-50. The former is really pricey. You can go for either Mobil or Total. 1 Like |

Ambihill:How long does a particular litre of fuel last you? What do you normally power with it? |
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by Gptech(m): 12:54pm On May 27, 2022 |
Ambihill:Its not just about the name, the weight and Api value are more important. You can go for Total 20w-50. 1 Like |

remi1444:Its good, you can go it. |
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by earthrealm(m): 2:33pm On May 27, 2022 |
remi1444: check your manual...oil change interval is specified there...its usually in run hours, visco 2000 is the oil I prefer, its reddish in color. seahorse may be ok ,, don't know. just try and change the oil as per the change interval recommended by the manufacturer. 20w 50 is the grade of oil recommended by most gen manufacturers, using a thinner oil 0w 30, will result in shortages |
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by remi1444: 2:52pm On May 27, 2022 |
earthrealm:Thank you. Barely put it on, in the past 3 weeks, I’ve used it in -6 hours. |
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by Angelasisiano(f): 3:26pm On May 27, 2022 |
We thought so too But thank God all jas been sorted now The problem has always been the house... it's actually a big family house with various flats, most of the flats are under lock cos the occupants are outside the country and the generator connection was done to power the whole house So using same connection, it's either the connection developed fault or there's an appliance that is turned on that we don't know about So right now we installed our own separate connection for the gen in our flat and it's working perfectly fine Thanks all for your suggestions nwaozzugwor: |

earthrealm: Please is there any repercussion if I use a 20w 50 oil for a generator that recommended 10w 30? |
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by Angelasisiano(f): 3:35pm On May 27, 2022 |
Sorted Thanks We did a different connection for our flat alone against the general connection we were using before rapthugx: |

Gptech: Thanks sir. It has been delivered. I called but they said they'll get back to me. I am yet to unbox it. So I don't know the recommended oil type to by. That's why I asked the above question? I need to set it up today |
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by earthrealm(m): 3:43pm On May 27, 2022 |
ogunlowoluseun: yes, you will ruin the engine over time, 20w 50 is thicker than 10w 30....so will not be able to lubricate the engine effectively, as its too thick to enter the tight spaces inside the engine, until after about 15minutes when the engine has warmed up...this is lead to metal to metal contact inside the engine with resultant production of metal shavings...and loss of compression, ultimately the gen will start smoking and stop being able to carry load ........... stick to what the manufacture recommends, this advice applies to cars as well 6 Likes |
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by earthrealm(m): 3:48pm On May 27, 2022 |
remi1444: the problem with non synthetic oil is that it starts degrading immediately you start using it. so even if you use it for 3hrs and leave the gen unused for next 30days, the oil has started going bad already. if you check your manual, The OCI -oil change interval, should be for eg 10hrs/15 days---which ever comes first synthetic oil doesn't hv this issue...but synthetic oil usually comes in thinner grades --0w -30, 10w-30 etc 2 Likes |
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by Gptech(m): 4:34pm On May 27, 2022 |
ogunlowoluseun:Unbox and check the manual, recommended oil will likely be 20W-50. Check under the gen around the engine block to get the engine number , that's what the customer care people should check. 1 Like |

Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by ogunlowoluseun: 5:33pm On May 27, 2022 |
Gptech: Yes I did. It's 20W-50 that was recommended. I bought Total as I couldn't get Mobil around. Is it okay to continue with Mobil later on? The engine start isn't working. I am not sure if I'm doing something wrong. I had to manual start before it came up. What could be the issue? |
