Generator Fuel Rules of Thumb [RE-wrenches]

[Travis Creswell, Ozark Solar]

Wrenches,

I have forgotten and can't seem to find anything (but I haven't looked very
hard yet) about generator fuel usage.  Does anyone have any numbers on
gallons/hp/hr or gallons/kW/hr?  Diesel and/or Propane?

I have a customers spec. sheet on a Propane Kohler 11RMY that gives
99cfh at full load.  It includes the conversion factor of gal/hr=cfh/154.3. 
The math says .64 gallons per hour but I thinking that is low.

Any help would be appreciated. 

Thanks
