Well, they say it's a Cat unit, so probably one like this :
http://www.cat.com/cda/components/securedFile/displaySecuredFileServletJSP?x=7&fileId=1081064
How long can they go on those 3000 gallons under their current
load?
That engine is rated to consume 70.9g/hr at 50% .. so using a conservative estimate, I'd say about 42 hours.

Wouldn't the conservative estimate be 21 hours? (3000 gallons, 142
gal/hr at 100% load);
you'd get more hours out by guessing at what fraction of full load the
generator is
running, but anything longer than 21 hours is fudge-factor guesstimate
based, and not
to be counted on.
