“Theirs a shit load of shit over here “😂 got a sub from me nice review

I biught one just about 2 hours ago how do you charge this machine ut has two cords not one to put in wall to charge im disappointed i was so glad i found this never had nothing like this we are aboutvto get hit with ice storm and snow just got back to somewhat normal since Helene hurricane how do you chatge if you dont have cord just car one and some other cord Thanks from SC

I drilled a hole with a step bit about 1/2". In that black plastic strip that blocks your straight shot to the idle screw. Now it's much easier to the screw off and started without cross threading it.

Great channel!

I cant wait for the bigger ones to come out! I bought the solar jackery small one from harbor freight and love it. Waiting for these to come out to get a bigger generator!

I think the power station has an advantage of being able to hook a solar panel to it while its being used to extend the use time during the day. It'd be an extra cost over the 2 battery packs, but if you're going to be in the sun anyways it could at least offset some of the usage.

They are a must for preppers. I charged 3 craftsman batteries at the same time even my cell phone. Definitely a must for shtf preppers

I actually like mine. They're a good tool for an emergency. I charge my craftsman batteries with it. And it'll run a corded hammer drill as well. You could also run a fridge or tv. I like the idea that i can charge if with a solar panel. And i can charge it in my truck if i had to.

Thanks mate! Highly helpful in getting us to get the job done!

Working on the same issue today on mine

No app and no fast charging No expansion battery?

These battery banks were 10x the price a few years ago. It’s getting more viable by the day.

I returned mine. The box says 2 hours to fully charge it. It’s actually 4 hours. It even says in the manual 4 hours. I liked it, but I don’t like this misleading information, so I returned it on principle. Btw, the same thing happened to me. I had to ask, and they had them in the back.

Just happened to mine. Dealer said it was on National back order. Changing the tank tomorrow. Did you flush the system?

EVs are cheaper than ICE vehicles…

The same exact thing happened to me. It said it was in stock. I ran over and couldn't find it in the store. I asked someone, who said it was still in the back and gave me one. I don't know how many came in, but in two days, they were sold out. I'm glad I was on top of it. I love it so far; it works awesome.

For a company to offer a generator and only give a 90-day warranty is absolutely ridiculous and then have the gall to charge you an enormous fee for extended warranty, that you have to buy because they fail so frequently and forget about getting parts. You’re better off buying American made Champion 5500-Watt Electric Start Gasoline and Propane Powered Dual Fuel Inverter Generator with CO Shield and Quiet Technology 3-year warranty. Last I looked was $899.00 and the Predator 5000 was $1099.00 with a 90 day warranty.

Same thang I did lol 😂

Does you gen drip fuel?

Great vid !!! Thank you for sharing.

You can use a strand from a BBQ brush to clear jets also👍

I just passed your jeep and looked up your TH-cam lol

Dumb video your an idiot

Looks fun let's roll some time.

Same here! 2020 gladiator 🤦

You don't have to turn off the main switch on the panel with a generlink, you just have to off all the other breakers.

Great video!!!

This fixed mine. Thank you to the creator.

why is it no motor is made to hold a even quart of oil? they do not even hold a even metric amount of oil.

please post before you go were you will be camping at. as running a generator at night will get many people mad at you. and kicked out of camp grounds. i boon dock, i do not like the heat. but the rules are for everybody. no noise after 8:pm. no noise before 7:am.

I have the same unit. I installed a conversion kit to run it on gas or propane. I lose a little power on propane but i can run it either way. It runs great.

What size a/c do you have?

Dupi color do them yourself did mine same color looks great and it's a deeper red

Rocking the Cleetus Glasses! I'm here for it! lol

It looks like you removed the carbon filter, that's a good thing, don't forget to put a cap over the nipple on the airbox, the air bypasses the filter and goes right into the carburetor. Also, when I did mine, I took the hose that comes from the top of the gas tank, and I drilled a hole in the bottom and ran the hose out the bottom of the unit make the hole slightly smaller so the hose fits tight, I also put a fuel shut off in the vent tube where I can get at it through the Oil door so I can keep the air sealed when I'm not running it. When I open the fuel shut off valve it vents the tank.

New subscriber. Great video. My issue is just the opposite of yours. Mine surges at idle and runs great under load. Would you suggest cleaning the jet would resolve my issue as well?

I picked one up from a guy that had it listed on marketplace for $50. Said it just quit running. I got it home gave it a few pulls and it fired off for about 10 sec and died. It came with a new spark plug and air filter installed and all I did was replace a gasket and clean the fuel system. Runs great now.

I have been struggling with this for over a year. I've cleaned the carb jet a dozen times and to no avail. Watched your video and it's running smooth. Ty sir. A brother in blue had my back! Edit: After setting idle, it spit for a few minutes but eventually came around. I watched the video earlier this year and even comment it was a carb cleaning. I was absolutely wrong. Also if you don't get the screw just right it'll run rich. Make sure to count the screw in turns. That'll help you get back to where the idle should be set.

Can anyone tell me if this will help the surching that makes it stall out? If this little piece is cleaned will it stop doing that surging and stalling? And my eco switch when pressed does nothing ..what dies that mean? The electric start does not work as well ok plmk if anyone can help ..thx

If you haven't found it already, mine was leaking right down the wire coming from the low oil shut down sensor in the block very subtle,, but it leaks down that wire and it actually filled up the spark ignition module. It's behind the opposite side cover. Hope this helps.

you are a GOOD man ... thanks for heads up on remote ...

Gotta hand it to Harbor Freight. They are active in fixing issues and offering incredible value. The Predator 5000 is a really slick generator. During this recent storm Milton, they sold out of all of them at my local store. I picked up one but am trying to decide if I will keep it. I have been wanting one for a while. Picked up a magnetic oil plug and will likely get an NGK spark plug. Do the break in period and all that. It's a nice unit.

the issue was fixed and updated models are out

Great video, thanks ! First one that showed up when I googled predator 3500 surging. I let mine sit with ethanol gas in it for about a year and when I started it surging was terrible. It didn't shut down but it was very annoying. I just put up with it, then Helene hit last Friday. We used it like it was for 4 days and power is still out. This morning 10/1/24, I shut it down and cleaned the orifice with a needle as suggested. Since it's really easy to do I went ahead and pulled the carb and checked all of the jets. They were clear but a tiny bit of varnish on them. I used a torch tip cleaner to clean as much as I could. Put it all back together and it works great! I probably didn't need to do the whole carb but I couldn't help myself. The small black orifice is tiny. When poking the needle through you can see the tip come through. Be careful because you wouldn't want it to break off in there. The idle adjust screw just provides a stop for the electronic throttle control so it doesn't do anything with fuel flow through the carb. It is a pain to get it back in without cross threading, but it's doable. They are saying power will be back on on October 3rd but I'm not holding out hopes for that. I've never seen such a devastating storm here in upstate SC. In the meantime, the Predator is running great! Thanks again!

Dude is probably overloading the generator and why didn't he fill the oil? etc... This video is a "How NOT to run a generator"...

Y'all need to make sure your titles are correct! This is an inverter! Jesus you guys make it impossible for people to figure anything out

Ever look into Bluetti solar generators?

I have a 2021 with a 2.0. My reservoir top and bottom halves separated leaving me stranded. I now have 3 spares in my garage.

My spark arrestor never gets clog. It is in the tool cabinet 😅

They are lying, mine did the exact same thing yesterday . Called jeep and they braid two weeks to get one delivered,luckily my buddies shop was able to order me one .How hard is it to remove that coolant tank ?
