    I had already disassembled my carb, cleaned the jets, and reassembled for generac 3600 watt, with 212cc engine. And it still surged. I tried adjusting the screw that you point out in your video. It smoothed it out a little but did not realize there was a jet directly below it that needed a cleaning, I pulled it out. Cleaned, it reinstalled it, and now it runs perfectly. Thank you

    Thank you so much!!! I was given a Ford FG2200IS generator that wasn't running. After cleaning the jets, this thing runs super smooth now!!! We missed cleaning the high output originally and your video helped diagnose it and solved the surging issue.

    Found it to be the gasket issue. Cleaned, resealed and all is good to go. Thx!

    So the idle screw on a big generator does not need to be set with turns, like the counting thing. Mine is surging on a brand new westinghouse and will try this cleaning..wish me luck..lol..Im a old gal.

    Hi. I have 9 kw generator was working fine. Then, it had some issues related to the valves so we decided to disassembling it and give it full cleaning. By mistake we disassembled the governor and when we put everything back it start working good when no load, or low loads. But with high loads it started surging. We checked the governor gear and wights, it has no problem. I even changed the AVR but still the same problem. Now i don't know if it is the same problem you showed in your video or not. Could you help me please

    Had a shop go thru my near new Generac GP3000i to clean out stale fuel deposits -- my fault. But it still hunts on no-load idle. Shop said California CARB requirements force too lean an idle. Do you know if I can buy a 49-state pilot jet package for it? Did you mean to say the Predator jet kits from Amazon were universal and could be fit to other brands? Doesn't sound right.

    I usually find some kind of booger in the main jet
