What's a bell end?
Just watched your EM500 Honda generator video. Did you ever finish it and have it fully running?
Nice banded wheels on that Moggy.
Hi Adam I just wanted to say that I will be thinking of you both on Monday, and also Adam with the hit and miss engines are they more likely to throw off the belt rather then the other ones? Great video again,,thanks from the Steve in Sevenoaks.
Will be thinking of the you on Monday happy new year to you both x
That's the only job that WD40 is any good for.
Love your videos - I'm from thursford but I live away now - so it's lovely to see the stuff I grew up with on the farm! But don't get the chance to play with as much anymore !
Hi Mr And Mrs Mancave, That look like a good day out mrs mancave looked well all though she is not bless her, You both have a take care of yourself.🛠️🛠️⭐️👍👌
Thumbs 👍
Love to you and your wife hope she has a speedy recovery I’m David I have Parkinson’s and had it 8 years and just love your videos very entertaining you remind me so much of Fred dibnah whom I met very lovely person all the best and keep the videos coming love to you both x x 🥰🥰❤️❤️
I like his videos aswell they are amazing!!
the wd 40 man is at it again
Very good
I'm surprised you didn't give it a blow down with your new air compressor first, before using WD and your cleanest dirty rag.
I cant tell you how emotionally invested I was in you getting this going. Great channel mate, only just found you. Subscribed.
Thats sounds great and looks in great condition
Absolute beauty mate!! Nice score!! Maybe a bit heavy as a solar back up for the van , but it would make a nice power cut genny to put a couple of lights and the wireless on i reckon!! What sort of voltage regulator does it use? I know you said that you don't know much about generators, but that's not really true, you know something about most things and seem to work out the happenings on what what you don't know too. Nice one fella!! Love to you and the lady wife, hope she's doing well. Xx
I used one of those after the 87 storm to keep out freezer frozen when we had a week long power cut, every time I felt cold I would pick it up and take it for a walk better than any gym that’s for sure.
In our little collection, we have an E300E, E800E, and an E4000E, but not one of these, nor the next one up. Take a look inside the door of the control box, you might just find a circuit diagram in there - there certainly is on the E4000E. I'm not sure about the E800E without taking a look. I would expect this one to use a current feedback transformer in the excitation circuit - that's pretty much standard fayre for Honda/Sawafuji generators, not counting the sub 800 watt models. It would be interesting to see if it was the case with this one.
Do they have any kind of AVR in them or just run a basic governor system?
@bushratbeachbum The current feedback transformer is effectively the AVR, but it's a direct feedback from the current being drawn by the load the greater the load, the greater the current, and the greater the excitation voltage will be. Inversely, the lower the current draw, and the lower the excitation voltage will be. It's a very simple system, but it worked extremely well. The excitation current needed to be rectified before being fed to the rotor, which itself is the field. This is a two pole rotating field generator, as is the case with most modern generators. It dates back to the early 1970s, as with our small selection. It could be described as a brute-force system from a time before electronic regulators. It's certainly a more expensive arrangement, and is definitely much more robust than the modern electronic AVRs.
@@whitesapphire5865 coolo, makes sense, I've used genies with similar set ups. I now prefer the 4 pole gens as they're usually diesel and I run them on old veg oil and jet fuel. 1500rpm is a much nicer tone than 3000 too if it's within earshot of where im working!! Thanks for the reply, much appreciated!!
@bushratbeachbum I couldn't agree more on the engine note. We have a Lister ST2 waiting to be coupled with a BKB gen-end - Only 6kVa, but looks more like 10! Two pole rotor/four pole static field excitation. The engine sounds deliciously sweet at 1500 rpm.
@whitesapphire5865 sounds like a lovely set!! Enjoy!!
STP Carb cleaner good stuff mate from ATJ
She’s a goer
I have the same machine in my garage. I bought it about 10 years ago. It is a very heavy machine for it's output. It is an absolute problem to start for the first time after a long storage period. Once started and run it will start with little trouble thereafter if used at least once every week... It has no automatic speed/output regulation and requires constant adjustment as the load varies. A 1700 watt kettle makes it grunt....and 2500 watts is a pipe dream. It's old technology...nearly 50 years old now. I keep it for nostalgia's sake...
It's only rated to 1500w isn't it?!!
And it'll have a governor which will regulate the speed related to the load, even if it doesn't have a modern AVR, id be surprised if it didn't give a reasonably stable output if used within its power spec. If it's constantly requiring adjustment, the governor, carb or something else requires attention.
Happy New Year you two 😉🥳
You too hope you have a really good one xx
You got a good one there Adam, you soon sort the carb out
Practically new old stock realy all hondas are good but vintage just that bit better charging straight away to perfect be worth keeping for power cuts mate

You could do with a little diesel heater in the mancave to keep you warm over the winter. 👍
I have the bigger version E2500 . now in the care of my son , it can be seen on my you tube .
65quid well spent! Lovely old thing
I have a spare alternator for one of these.
While you're messing about int shed, Mrs mancave's got her feet up ont sofa finishing off the Christmas sherry.
Good for her.
Hi Adam, removing the spark plug and heating it a bit usually helps an engine that's been stood a while. Nice little genny and it sounds quite smooth running too👍 happy new year.
That little Fergi will be around 2 1/2 ton lighter now without all the hedgerow growing on her She were more like a MOSSEY ferguson LOL Proper Job
You got a really good deal on that one, she's sweet. Outboard?
Sweet as a nut that little engine. Love how you clean it with the 2 dirtiest rags in the world Adam 😂😂😂
Your a lucky boy that’s money in the bank 😃😀😃😀
Yet another cleaning video
You like them?
Roll the credits x2 sort him out mrs man cave ❤
That is an old Geny but it's a Honda so you have a tool for life, I have five Honda engines running various machines all are great. Cheers
High end gen set in its day, serious quality, that old girl will not let you down.
Well that’s not strictly true cos it’s let someone down ….hence it’s in the auction and sold for <£70
@iansmith7369 it's not let anyone down what you talking about? No need for it any more
@@iansmith7369s been moved on . Just the comment not needed,
You cannot run the generator on another engine as the 70 volt excitation coil is behind the flywheel along with the ignition coil. Also a detergent cleaner such as elbow grease would clean it better followed by wd to protect it
Yeah i would not think it would work either. To many wires going from gen to engine. So obviously talking to each other.
Sell it
Lol. I'm guessing you want to buy it?? 🤣🤣🤣
the firm i worked for had one of these in the early 80s for light site work drilling steel etc
Nice pick up Adam 👍 love your videos
Worth a bit of moolah Adam, help you and your good lady out!
That Honda generator sounds great Adam
Well done 🤠
Another great video Adam ha aaaaaaaaar .
Hi Adam, Your magic touch has worked again and it’s come up lovely we done mate. Happy 2025 take care of yourself.🛠️🛠️🛠️⭐️👍👌
Nice one Adam clean little unit
Will is start 🤔 Think our English is better than yours 😂👍🇮🇪
