All Power Generator APG3012 Fuel Leak Repairs - Petcock and Carburetor Gaskets 

Thanks for the info. It was very helpful. Also great trick with the changing license plates!

As complete a technical video as I've ever seen ; specifying wrench sizes , suggestions, tips etc.

Fantastic video! Exactly my model, my problem, and very clear and thorough instructions. Just saved me a bunch of $$$. One helpful tip... I used the sealant method and it expanded inside preventing floater from cutting off gas and resulted in the carburator still leaking. Be sure the floater is free when you put back together (I shook it to hear for shaking).

Nice work on the repair. It's amazing what people will junk for a small issue like this.

Direct and to the point. Great video

Your cat is big! Looks like the leaks are under control. Twenty years ago, I was given a 750 watt small cheapie gas generator with the same issues. Replaced the petcock, cleaned the bowl and replaced the bowl gasket. Worked for about 7 years (I used it for ham and swap meet events) then still ran, but did not generate any power. just gave up and scrapped it.

Awesome video mate, one of the best I've seen. So clear and easy to follow. Well done and thank you!

I bought this generator - identical except for the 'Kingcraft' brand - from Aldi about 16 years ago. Never had any problem, other than a slight surge while it was warming up. However, I did go over it to check the hardware, as I heard some users of these Chinese Generators had problems with brackets and fasteners breaking after prolonged use during Katrina. I found the bracket holding the big muffler to the generator housing had slotted holes with just plain bolts holding it. So I added flat washers to those for better support. Also, something I do with most power equipment that has a fuel cut-off, I shut it down by turning off the gas and let the engine use up the gas in the carburetor. If I'm ready to put it away, I also drain the tank. No telling when I'm going to use it again, so it prevents the gasohol from going bad, eating up the carb and building-up condensation in the tank.

We love what you are doing here! Great job!

Nicely done 👍🏽

Had a leaky petcock on my *new* Allpower. They have a definite problem with that part. But I found a replacement that fixed the problem. Hope you are not having any additional issues.

Good fix, always something

Awesome video. I have the exact generator but haven't run into this problem..yet. I'm about to attempt an oil change and would like to see video on that if possible..... Update: oil change was pretty simple.

Awesome! Exactly same type generator I got with same issue.

Thanks, great detail.

I'm not the only nut who puts his cat on a collar and leash. Yay

Helpful! Came home to my wife saying the basement smelled like gas. Went downstairs to find a small puddle of gas under the generator. Low and behold it had been stored with the petcock open. My guess is the fuel sitting in the carburetor degraded the gasket?

Thanks bro! It really helped me Alot!❤️❤️❤️

Nice video.

Really helpful

I Appreciate you, thank you very much

Good good

Could you help me in one more thing? My generator is leaking the fuel exactly like this and it is not starting?

What if the bowl won't sit on the carb. What can I do?

Nice leash on the kitty. I have two cats. How long of a leash would I need to put on them?

What size spring clips are those

Please someone tell me, how many times should I change the engine oil and at what time. And how much should I put 2 times oil to gasoline?

Most likely cause of leaking fuel from carb is the needle value on the float is not sealing and allowing the bowl to over fill.

7:27 Choke lever. 10:13 Yup, choke lever. 😀

I have a generator that looks same as yours. But mine is leaking gas from the air box. What would it be the problem any ideas ?

Is 5w30 or 10w30 recommended for this engine?

Is the on off switch a four wire?

aha so now I know my carburetor leaks because of gasket I never did that kind of repairs I just wanted to use my generator today and after 5 min he shut off so I inspected it and there is a huge leak from carburetor it's like water coming out of the faucet

AS our only small engine repair shop provides the same Chinese made aftermarket parts, I can buy from Amazon but at OEM retail prices , I would rather use amazon.

De tantos generadores que hay el más malo es este, lo digo por experiencia, tengo uno de 2000watts que estando en su caja cuando le echamos gasolina comenzó a botar combustible por el filtro, y de ahí en adelante comenzó la pesadilla, ahora le a dado por decaer en sus revoluciones, tengo un generador eléctrico de 2 tiempos que me a salido mejor que esté créeme, por suerte tengo un ingco de 3000 watts y estoy esperando uno champion, pero el generador all power le voy a dar vacaciones....

Freaking cat on leash? Only in Alabama......
