My 5.5kva Petrol generator runs for about six hours, I want to know if there is any company in SA that makes like mini fuel tank that can feed petrol directly into the Generator without having to turn it off......

Nothing Overkill, but I would like to double the running time of the generator to say 12 hours....

I thank you...

:unsure:
 
Post pictures of the genie, I'm sure someone on here would have the means otherwise we 3D print a fuel tank.
 
25L Jerry can secured higher than the generator, take a pipe in from the top of the Jerry can and make sure it can reach the bottom of the can, take the other end and attach it to the carburetor inlet

Its cheap and nasty, but it will work

Nah, Morty, I wouldn't even consider this. If anything goes wrong insurance won't pay.

Actually, I doubt whether insurance would pay if they can show that any kind of modification was done from factory spec, but I assume you'd want it done as safely as possible.
