I checked the BX's fuel consupmtion

[94BULLITT]

That's good I put 16 hours and I burnt 15 gallons hauling dirt and clearing brush with the backhoe But I'm still happy for an l45 and that good of fuel economy

That is .93 gal a hour which is good. Does the L45 have a auto throttle advance?

How big of a generator and snow thrower?

Big enuf to cause the engine to bog. Gen is 11KW -- oversized for the power available ... about 7KW is all you can get. Adjust ground speed or elect load so its right on the cusp. Easiest with the 50" thrower in heavy snow.

Ya and when I'm on the backhoe I put it at 2000 to 2500 Rpms

I use 5 gallons every 15 hours in my BX24. No mowing: mostly backhoe, moving dirt and grading. That's .33 gph.
