Ryobi RYI2300BT Inverter Generator Repair

Made a quick video on this machine. its actually very nice for features. Cool thing to note is that it has the same exact motor as my Yamaha EF2000iS inverter generator. The features are pretty cool too being able to control it from a phone app and see how long of a run time is left before you are out of fuel.
Apologies as I was not able to video it being load tested. This unit had a fouled carb and the low oil sensor saved its life because the customer did not screw the dipstick cap on right and it dumped all the oil out.
Any questions please let me know!

Excellent review! I can say that this generator offers safe power for sensitive electronics allowing for a change in RPM for fuel efficiency but remaining with stable voltage.

I pulled out my generator in preparation for hurricane Ian and even with Stabil in the fuel it varnished. Thanks so much for the video. I was able to get it running so if the power goes out I at least have something.

FYI, I’ve had my two Ryobi gens for two years now. Bought together with the 30 amp combiner box. Gen 1 has 190 hrs gen 2 has 440 hrs. At first they operated the same, then Gen 2 would cut out when combined for high load, but otherwise work fine. Now Gen 1 is surging and cutting out. Changed Gen 1’s carb and both Gen’s spark plugs. Gen 1 was heavily sooted whereas Gen 2 looked fine. And just another side issue, both gens start cords have fraying 4 inches (or so) from the handles. Re-tied the cords to move the frayed part. Changing out cords is a HUGE hassle.
@Bassguitarist1985
@Bassguitarist1985 3 года назад
Gen1 is burning oil, likley piston rings and valves. Carb wont fix issue. Could have overheated, lack of maintenance, or simple misfortune the engine is failing

I love the generator and use it constantly since I live off grid. In 6 months I put about 2000 hours. But I just recently started having trouble getting it to shut down remotely. With the timer or force shutdown from my phone it will almost completely stop running but the suddenly rev back up and run. Sometimes after a few tries it will shut down but I have had to go out and shut it down with the knob. Any idea what could be the problem?
@Bassguitarist1985

Sounds like a bad transistor that may not be biasing properly to ground out the ignition. It could be as asimple as a bad ground too.

After purchase I would immediately change the oil and refill with 1/5 of Marvel Mystery Oil even if they tell that they kept up on the oil changes. Be VERY CAREFUL not to overfill the oil reservoir. It will cause issues that cannot be remedied without thorough repair. If they sell it to you with gas in it AND it runs well with that gas I would immediately pour two ounces of MM Oil in the tank after you get it home and then run it for an hour AFTER you change the oil. Do that if you are going to have it sit and not use it right away. At each tank full also add an ounce of MM Oil. Enjoy!

I just bought a lil generac (same internals) i think im going to try to buy some 100LL avgas to do test runs. When I use it run pump gas, drain it, run avgas and drain it again as that shit won't foul the carb. Seems like the overwhelming majority of problems with these Ducar gensets is carb issues.

@Bassguitarist1985
@Bassguitarist1985 2 года назад
Is the unit out of warranty? i believe the sensor is built into the inverter unit itself since it is close to the air box. I haven't tried to bypass and neither should you. It means you have inadequate air flow to the generator anyway. Possible to move it to another location? Maybe nose of trailer?

Try adjusting the cable, it’s a bad design and it won’t choke all the way to start, there’s a screw, loosen it, pull the cable gently with pliers a little, tighten it back up,if you put your finger on the throttle you can see it still can move to the left a little, just be careful when you adjust the cable, mine shows the cable from new is already twisted, like I said bad design.
