Ran mine for the first time today for about 5 hours, no load. Really excited about this thing. Ironically, the power went out this evening. But only for about 20 seconds. Just long enough for my wife to realize I truly am a walking, talking genius. 😂

I read somewhere it was bad to run the generator with no load for prolonged periods of time. At least a light for breaking it in, I remember reading.

Have run 1 HF 5000. For over 3600hr. Oil change started every 25hrs to first 100. Then 100hr after. Only straight 30w. Ele. Starter issues now. Traded in for a new one last Saturday

@neno1385 3 месяца назад

@Suds649 5 месяцев назад

Use a3 inch small windshield washer hose and push it on to the top of the spark plug then use it to finger start the spark plug. If it doesn’t go in easily then back it all the way out and try it again. Your chances of cross threading the plug is next to impossible. A thin film of nickel anti seize on the threads will help you the next time you change the plug. Be sure to keep the first couple of threads dry. This will prevent the anti seize from getting into the combustion chamber.

@WOODZMAN Месяц назад

Definitely

@vincentrobinette1507 7 месяцев назад

For the break-in period, I would just run the factory plug. After the break-in, put the new quality plug in the same time you do the first oil change.

@WOODZMAN 6 месяцев назад

That is fine also

@jefffrayer8238 6 месяцев назад

Not me, I put a NGK in, oiled air filter, removed spark arrester, Installed a small, paper gas line filter between shut off and carb before ever starting my two 2020 model 3500's. Factory plug and spark arrester are zip tied inside unit if needed in the future. Great, reliable outfits if used as intended and not modified by people that don't know what they are doing. Don't make oiling air filter such a fuss. Simply place a few drops of oil on it and squeeze as B&S said in the 60's. The oil will migrate to all areas just fine. Good video.

@motoxman568 Месяц назад

You should be putting filter oil on the air filter. Not motor oil. Filter oil will actually tac up and stop the dirt instead of motor oil being sucked into the intake because it never gets sticky...

@WOODZMAN Месяц назад

That is absolutely not true. Engine oil works fine, I like many others have used it for years on foam filters it it does a fine job of stopping the dust, and if you are sucking the oil into the intake then you have put to much on it.

@sandypidgeon4343 2 месяца назад

Great video. Question as I'm not spark plug "knowledgable": Is the factory spark plug gapped smaller because it runs on propane, or does that make any difference given the less dense fuel? Thanks...just got one of these for our new NO-BO 20.3, so looking forward to getting it right the first time. GOD Bless

@WOODZMAN 2 месяца назад

I don’t remember the gap, but I actually measured the gap on the factory plug and set the NGK to the same. I should have shown it in the video but forgot

Today is August 27, 2024, bought mine on June 13, 2024 and it’s a piece of Junk! Ran good for the first month and then running the same load it would shut down because it was showing an overload. It now does this even with nothing plugged in! I’m extremely disappointed! Now I have to drive almost 2 hours to harbor freight to exchange it.

The Predator 5000 is Recalled and out of stock. If anyone bought one, check out serial number and take it back if a bad unit. Many complaints that they shut off under substantial, but within specs, loads. Until they get this one correct, the Champion 4650 w/ dual fuel and remote start is the ticket. Just as quiet. No issues. If you really want a Predator 5000 they apparently will be restocking a 'fixed' unit Dec 21st.

@WOODZMAN 9 месяцев назад

Yea mine is not in the serial number range

Wrong type of oil used. That won't work well. Air filter oil would be a better choice.

@WOODZMAN Год назад

lol it will work just fine, I have used standard motor oil on foam filters for years and it does a fine job.

@jefffrayer8238 6 месяцев назад

"Air Filter OIl " ? So where do ya find that Einstein? A few drops of oil on a foam type air filter has been done since at least the late 1950's by many engine manufacturers and it was always a few drops of the engine oil and squeeze out excess.

@WOODZMAN 6 месяцев назад

You are correct! They actually do make air filter oil but standard motor oil works just fine.

@jefffrayer8238 6 месяцев назад

I must apologize as at 69 and working on engines all my life I never saw Air Filter oil in owners manuals or had anyone mention it. A simple Google search finds it. I just may look into it but only needing a few drops even a small botttle would last a lifetime.
