This Ryobi generator has a plastic cooling fan that shattered and broke into pieces. The generator was left running and overheated until it lost compression. The engine is not seized, but there is little to no compression. The head gasket is blown and the top end is a mess with baked on oil and the oil low and like tar. Will walk you though breaking down the engine and repairing the damage.
Fan Part#: D264601
Head Gasket Part#: D96089
UPDATE what I think happened to this machine:
1) The ground wire was unplugged from the magneto.
2) Engine was low of oil and could not shut down due to the magneto ground wire being unplugged.
3) Governor broke due to lack of lubrication and engine raced.
4) Increased speed caused excess voltage caused the digital meter to melt.
5) Cooling fan came apart.
6) Engine overheated and head gasket blew.
