The 12.5kw generator is likely very similar to the Kohler I have in my coach. It is a workhorse. Mine has over 3800 hours on it and runs strong. The best thing you can do for a generator is to run it under a heavy load at least once a month for about an hour. We run ours almost all of the time that the engine is running, especially in the summer so we can run the a/c units. A rarely used generator would concern me more than one that was used frequently. Newell's John Clark discussed that issue at the rally in Spearfish last summer.
