Worth knowing
The engine counts more than the badge
John Deere, Volvo Penta, Perkins and Kubota engines show up inside many different brands' sets. A photo of the engine tag helps us price it.
Makes in depth
Notes on the makes we see
We buy every make. A few notes on the common ones.
Engine brands
Many sets are built around Perkins, John Deere, Volvo, Detroit, Isuzu or Kubota engines. The engine plate matters as much as the brand on the enclosure.
Alternator brands
Stamford, Marathon, Leroy-Somer and Mecc Alte alternators are common. The alternator plate gives the kW or kVA rating.
Home standby brands
Generac, Kohler, Briggs and Stratton and Champion home standby units are bought too.
Older makes
Onan and other older makes still have parts value.
Brand names
Brand names belong to their owners. We're not connected with any manufacturer.
