Honda generators 2.0

Well , I have nothing against generators , but really ? If the only time you need the generator is for the 'hair dryer' would it not be easier to have a set of hair clippers and keep the hair at a # 3 or #4 , that means only needing to start the Genny once a month or so .....think of the $$$$ you'l save ....LOL ....

What sort of 'box' is it ? Where is it located ? I have the same genny and on a slide out tray, within a sealed steel compartment that has an external door...all built in with the van..fumes are not an issue. To vent potential fumes if they should arise I installed a Camec breather vent in the hatch door as insurance (but that would only ever be noticed outside). I suggest one would hardly get rid of a Honda (top quality) until a check over by a technician...you may have a minor leak (and a tiny bit of fuel can make a big odour in confined spaces).

The box is at the back drivers side
It takes up a bit of the vanity space but from outside
I don’t know about brownie points but the genny stays
Ive resiliconed the inside of the box maybe vent indoor is the go too

When you stop the genset, turn the fuel tap off on the tank and let it run completely out of fuel. That way, there's no fuel left in the lines or carburettor to give off fumes.

But even at that, the tank is vented through the cap (it has to be vented or a vacuum would form inside the tank while its running and the engine would eventually starve of fuel) - and the only way you can stop petrol fumes from emitting from the tank cap is to tape up the tank area around the cap with 100mph tape.

Gensets are best carried in boxes completely sealed from the 'van, and vented to the atmosphere, where the fumes vented cannot possibly enter the living area.
If possible, run a vent line to the top of the 'van.

Petrol fumes are the most invasive and unpleasant fumes you can get. My missus can smell petrol on me, and recoils, even if I spill just two drops on my boots - and up to 6 or 8 hrs afterwards. She's got a nose like a drug searching dog.

I can put a couple of properly sealed poly jerrycans of petrol in the boot of the Missus' Camry - and the smell just from a few drops of spillage, when filling the jerrycans, will go right through the car, even though the A/C airflow is from the front, and out the back.
