Generac Part 7990 Extreme Cold Weather Kit for 4.5L; RG048/60/80
Generac 7990 is an Extreme Cold Weather Kit for liquid-cooled standby generators utilizing the 4.5L V-8 engine (48kW to 80kW models). This essential add-on features an engine block heater (or oil pan heater) and necessary mounting hardware. It must be paired with the basic battery warming kit (7992) and synthetic oil to ensure the generator starts reliably in temperatures consistently below 0 F.
