Our Honda EU3000iS Extended Run Time Fuel Kit was specifically developed to work correctly with the Honda EU3000iS. It is not a through the cap, one size fits all, or a gravity feed system. Our kits use an internal fuel pump included in the kit to transfer fuel so the remote tank does not need to be higher than the generator to work correctly. Simply place the remote tank on the ground next to the generator then connect the fuel hose and you are all set. It is very important that you use only the components supplied in the kit, do not mix and match with locally improvised items due to the fact that they may not be 100% compatible and therefore inhibit performance of the kit. We do our best to select the highest quality components for our kits, for example we tested several different brands of prime ball hose before we chose the Yamaha hose due to the fact that it outlast the other brands and it stays more flexible in cold temperatures.
Convenience
You will never have to shut down your generator to refuel again. Our Honda EU3000iS Extended Run Time Fuel Kit is designed to alternate from one tank to the next while the generator is still running. Our kit will allow you to alternate between as many tanks of any size you choose. Based on manufacturer fuel consumption claims with a 6 gallon fuel tank you can run a Honda EU3000iS up to 13 hours at full load or 26 hours at half load before alternating to the next fuel tank.
Safety
You will never have to risk personal injury again pouring gasoline into a hot generator. With our AUXILIARY REMOTE FUEL TANK SYSTEM you can just switch to a remote fuel supply more safely at a distance of up to 10 feet away from this generator.
Compatibility
This product has been validated for use on gasoline versions of this generator only. It is not recommended for use on propane or dual fuel versions of this generator.
The fuel tank itself is not included in this kit due to the fact that it seems no two customers need the exact same size fuel tank. Here is a link that may help you find the proper sized fuel tank for your needs.

The kit works very well in above freezing temperatures. Below freezing gave me nothing but headaches and problems. Attempted many things with company support but eventually just had to end up removing it from my Honda 3000. Would not recommend if you run in below freezing temps.

I see you are in Alaska so I am not sure how cold it is getting there, however in really cold temps you must not allow ice to form in the breather hose. Honda is aware of the issue with ice forming in the breather hose on the EU3000iS and has issued a technical service bulletin on the subject. There are two ways to remove Ice that forms in the breather hose. The first method is to install the genuine Honda breather hose heater kit available at Honda dealers, part number 06390-ZS9-T20. The second method is less expensive, you could try using a rough service light bulb as a heater and hook it up the same way as the Honda kit. In either case you would then start the generator and run it off the stock fuel tank till the ice in the breather hose has melted and then switch it over to the remote tank and continue running. Keep in mind that the fuel pump is powered by crank case pressure and vacuum by way of the breather hose, so when the hose is plugged with ice the fuel transfer pump can not operate.
