In this video i am working on a honda generator that would run well, but then shut off unexpectedly and abruptly. The problem ended up being a very simple fix and hopefully this video can help someone out who might have the same problem!
Thanks for this! It worked at a very important time! We lost power from a hurricane 4 days ago and have been using our generator to keep the freezer and refrigerator operating, and watch a little TV, it suddenly began shutting off randomly. We checked the oil, the filter, the fuel, could not figure it out. But your video had the fix! Thanks!
You can always get a used one off another motor good chance it is the little square box on the outside! But doing it as your doing is fine also you just have to check the oil every-time you use it!
I was given a generator w less than 1 hr but hasn't been started in 8 years.i totally cleaned carb inside out w carb cleaner,put new gas,new oil,new plug,fired up 2nd pull,turned down choke after 10 min then bogged down? Only runs when choke is full? Thoughts? Thanks
He is Canadian (Saskatchewan) but his accent is "Newfoundland", Canadian. Newfoundland was an entry point for immigrants and the accent is a combo of Irish and Scotts with a little French mixed in.
