You are a true hero!! I’m the time of need your video helped us get out generator going again. Here’s a little contribution for your efforts in trying to help complete strangers. God bless ❤️👍
Generator would start, run 5 to 10seconds and shut down. The low oil light was on, but the the oil level was full. I found the yellow wire coming out of the crankcase, disconnected it and electrical taped both connectors so they wouldn't touch each other or any part of the generator. It started and ran like a Rolex. Thanks for the very helpful, detailed and easy to follow instructions.
Thanks for this video. Taking apart a carburetor scared the crap out of me. This video really simplified it and gave me the courage to do it. My generator is back up and running thanks to you. Thank you!
Tried to start my generator yesterday. It is the exact model you have so finding this was lucky for sure. Today I did as you show and found the jet clogged, a bit of cleaning and reassembly and it started right up. Without the guidance i would not have fixed it most likely , Thanks for helping me get it running again!
Thanks mate, you got me going again. When I checked my oil level, it was almost empty but after I topped it up, the generator started immediately. You have saved me a lot of hassle. Well done and great video.
Very good tip Mate ! I oftentimes forget to check suchlike things. Cheers ! One reason I love the Harbor Freight Neon Spark checker, you can test for spark with virtually any engine that produces a spark save anything that has individual coils on each cylinder.
The air compressor blowing out the carb did it for me! After over two hours of playing around with it I was about to take it to the curb. I watched your video, now it runs beautifully... THANK YOU!
I have to thank you for saving me from buying a new generator. I had the carb off apart and back on in 1hour it started right away. awesome video! and I am a carpenter not a mechanic:)
It actually worked for me...just now , I decided to check TH-cam to see if I can get my generator fixed ...and presently I'm charging my phone with my generator power ..thanks much
Thank you very much for this video. I have a generator similar to yours, and the same problem. I followed your steps exactly, and it actually worked from the first time. You are a wonderful person, may God bless you.
Thanks so much for the tutorial. I had been trying to get my generator that sat for over 4 years going and had no luck. You showing how to take the carb apart and clean helped tremendously. My generator started on the first pull.
My generator would only run if I sprayed carb cleaner in carb. I took the carb off, cleaned it per your instructions, and it starts first pull now !!! YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! Thanks for the lesson.
I like your accent, also this is helpful. I'm trying to fix our undiagnosed Husky 1850W, and while watching this I'm cleaning the chassis because it hasn't been interacted with for 5 years or more.
Many thx for the video … my carburetor interior and particularly the float were a deep yellow colour. I tried compressed air and a deep cleaning but didn’t work. Starting again tomorrow but planning on disassembling and cleaning the jets with carb cleaner and steel wool - wish me luck
@@mygiguser works now, thx for the excellent video and the 🤞. the main jet didn’t appear to have a slot in the brass bolt. I applied carb cleaner down the tube - two side jets were easily removed-.at first the screws wouldn’t budge - great care must be taken with these brass screws because the metal is very soft - so I applied penetrating fluid and waited 30 minutes. Thoroughly cleaned the jets with carb cleaner and slid a thin needle through the tiny holes in the jets. Didn’t start last night but this morning it’s working like a … we’ll, like a generator
I guess the consensus is that the problem was old gas. I didn't see a lot of gas in the carburetor. I use leaded gas in my small engines. Its expensive and the octane is high, however, the ethanol content is 0%. Ethanol invites moisture (water) into the carburetor and before you know it, you are either rebuilding the carburetor or replacing it. The alternative to leaded gas, if you can't find it, is to buy gas with a low ethanol content and treat it with StaBil gas additive.
Spark plugs rarely fail on small engines, I work on them it’s usually the carburetor that’s clogged up because of ethanol gas. Spark plugs usually last the life of the engine
Drain the old gas, open the screw on the bottom of the carburetor as shown in the video, put everything back together, fill in new gas and you're good to go.
Check thermal circuit breaker sometimes they fail open circuit and won't reset check wiring and sockets for continuity you should be able to test the resistance of the stator through the mains outlet and this will prove the generator will work if there is a rotating magnetic field. If the generator has been dormant for a long time and it is self exciting type the rotor can lose residual magnetism needed to self excite unfortunately only way to fix that is remove the rotor which is the spinning bit inside the alternator and give it some loving with a strong magnet not important to be perfect just enough to leave a residual field to get things moving probably not a bad idea to test the diodes in the rotor field f accessible then put it back together and run the generator it will establish correct magnetic field once it's generating again. If unit is externally excited then could be a faulty avr ( automatic voltage regulator ) board or worn brushes and in rare cases open circuit winding in rotor in this case repair gets expensive.

Followed exactly.. Still not running or even almost starting. Of course in the middle of the night with no power. Only thing left is to try new plug. It looked fairly clean when i took it out to look..but thats the onoy thing left it might be... Plenty of gas, blew out the carb holes.. Nothing.
oh man, sorry to hear. my power is out too right now. what are the odds. did you check the oil? there is a switch that turns it off when the oil is low!
Forgot to add reply... Took apart carb again, used air compressor to blow out holes.. Works like a champ. Now at least I know how to take it all apart.
@@mygiguser thank you! My adjustable wrench couldn't fit the tight space but I managed to remove it with pliers. Thanks to your instructions I was able to make the generator work.
So here's a question: I cleaned the carb (2 pinholes, blew out the emulsifier tube as it cannot be removed). With a drained carb it starts on brake cleaner, but when I open the fuel valve it will not start, not even on brake cleaner. Where should I look?
Well in this case metal shavings were blocking one of the jets. This must have happened in the production process of the carburetor. It was working for at least 20 hours, as it all of the sudden quit, and then never started again.
tip to easy start. just put quick start propane gas into the chalk filter. and thats it. also you cn use the lighter propanane gas if you not have the quick start be sure to adjust the level of the lighter to high to give more gas to the filter .
At the throttle, I see the thicker wire. What is the tiny wire ? What is it supposed to be connected to ? I had to manually hand-jive my throttle for about a minute before the engine would run on it's own. Thanks !
turn gas valve off....when storing...and run until gen stops. This will empty the float bowl...so as not to collect water and prevent corrosion of old gas. Sta-bil should be used if storing for longer than a week.. Gas looses octane quickly.
Do you happen to know how to set the *governor* on these small _Champion_ generators? My 80cc Champion generator surges like crazy anytime the load changes.
Hey man, i have dual fuel generator i mean generator use natural gas and petrol as fuel . now generator works well with petrol but not with gas, what will be the possible problem with my generator, please tell me.
@@mygiguser thanks i end up looking up information i got some carb cleaner. But your video helped 1000x to find the issue was in the video my actual problem.
lil tip it worked for me ....the filter in the tailpipe was completely dirty and that wasnt letting the fumes out ... there fore shutting off the engine ......so i clean it and problem solved.
@@abrakamjoxmhlanga1551 You should be able to run two stroke fuel in a four cycle engine just as long as it is just one fuel tank without damaging any internals just as long as the fuel isn't too rich. I do it all the time.
You need air, spark, fuel ! Pull carburator before spark check ?? No ! If spark , fuel, clean air filter , problem could be old gas ! Spray starter fluid into unchoked carb, close choke, try starting ! This should work for almost all starting problems !!
most of the times, the needle get stucked and don't let the fuel get into the carburetor... especially on 2 strokes engins, because oil residue turn into some kind of glue
About the biggest issue with ANY generator is leaving the gas on. ppl see the ignition sw. or engine switch that says run/stop. they flip engine stops an that's IT no worry about leaving gas in the carb for months at a time with no stabilizer in it. YUP that'll send Gertrude in a tizzy well that is what I call her. When I work on a gen 1st things is to check oil, how much and the quality of it. mostly every engine has a low pressure oil shut off, a yellow wire from R. side is wired into the ignition magneto so if oil pressure decreases, mag is shorted and plug will not fire. If gas has has not been left in the carb, make sure oil is within a two threads of dipstick before it starts to run out and unhook the yellow wire. Good chance engine starts, if it shuts down when ylw wire is hookt, oil sensor switch is probably stuck, unhook wire and restart, keeping eye on oil. possible oil sw. will free up inside and allow engine to run with it hookt up as it should be. other engines have a little cube with 2 wires leaving it, This is either a diode or quite possibly a transistor.
Yes, that's right. When the switch is closed, the wire is grounded, and the engine doesn't start. Either not enough oil, or the switch is broken. Make sure you have enough oil! It doesn't take much to wreck an engine without oil!
No hay que dejar con nafta el caburador y / o tampoco la nafta mucho tiempo en el tanque , forma acidos en evaporacion y se destruye el mismo , mirar la bujia antes de arrancar por mucho tiempo, le hace bien , a medida que el generador cumple horas de uso se hace mas visible el desgaste y el consumo de aceite , que sube o bombea el piston ..... mrar el aceite , con nivel de piso a 0.... el aceite , tiene que salir , por agujero tapa... ahi esta bien.Tambien ver si la boya del carburador esta alineada a la base del mismo....

This is a great job sir
Difficult to come to terms that the spark plug was not checked at all,and probably one of the major causes at generator startup failure.
Spark plug may be second on the list, but thanks for the comment.
Spark plugs rarely fail on small engines, I work on them it’s usually the carburetor that’s clogged up because of ethanol gas. Spark plugs usually last the life of the engine
@@mygiguser "Spark plug may be second on the list...", but 10 times quicker than all the work with the carburator.
Thank you. I think this is exactly what I need to do. Carb has old gas in it. 👍
Das ist sehr gut! Ich habe ein mit der susamen problem. Es ist zu kalt jezt, but I will do the carb removal and try that. Danke!
Not the cause here but as an fyi, use no-ethanol gas. Ethanol kills these small engines. Hard to find sometimes but will save you in the long run.
By the way: Most of the time it is old gasoline, that prevents the generator from running. It seems to collect in the carburator.
what do you do if its old gas
Drain the old gas, open the screw on the bottom of the carburetor as shown in the video, put everything back together, fill in new gas and you're good to go.

Great vid! Probably better and easier to drain fuel from the carb drain bolt.
Great work... Excellant
Hi , great video , i have almost the same problem but mine start and turn off right after
before I removed the carb I would have removed the spark plug and checked for spark
So here's a question: I cleaned the carb (2 pinholes, blew out the emulsifier tube as it cannot be removed). With a drained carb it starts on brake cleaner, but when I open the fuel valve it will not start, not even on brake cleaner. Where should I look?
maybe the fuel valve is clogged? or the gas tank vent not working?
The second thing to try (after checking there is fuel and it's not flooded) is to check the spark plug.
Great video, thank you!
God job,, Thanks very much !! I can Use my generator
That was a great video! But what was the problem? it didn't seem to be diagnosed
Well in this case metal shavings were blocking one of the jets. This must have happened in the production process of the carburetor. It was working for at least 20 hours, as it all of the sudden quit, and then never started again.

"chalk filter"???
Check for spark before tearing down the carb.
At the throttle, I see the thicker wire. What is the tiny wire ? What is it supposed to be connected to ? I had to manually hand-jive my throttle for about a minute before the engine would run on it's own. Thanks !

Drain all the old gas first, and then use new gasoline before you start the engine.

Not sure what you did here, you cleaned a clean carburetor now it works?
ns671fr there was a tiny piece of dirt stuck in carburetor. The generator was only a few hours old, ran maybe 100 hours before it stopped working.
Though it’s often the carb and bad gas you should have addressed doing a spark and spark plug check
Thank you god bless you
Use Starting Fluid first.
always!!
most of the times, the needle get stucked and don't let the fuel get into the carburetor... especially on 2 strokes engins, because oil residue turn into some kind of glue
Nando Z great, but this is a four stroke engine.
Really didn't have to take the carb off to do that. But it looked simple enough.
surely you check for a spark at the plug, before you take the Carb appart ? 👀⚡😎😎
not really, no
same generator as my 1500 / 2000 watt Buffalo tools sportsman ,but green and has a near useless 12 v dc. i just had to put a new ignition coil on.
About the biggest issue with ANY generator is leaving the gas on. ppl see the ignition sw. or
engine switch that says run/stop. they flip engine stops an that's IT no worry about leaving
gas in the carb for months at a time with no stabilizer in it. YUP that'll send Gertrude in a tizzy
well that is what I call her. When I work on a gen 1st things is to check oil, how much and the
quality of it. mostly every engine has a low pressure oil shut off, a yellow wire from R. side is
wired into the ignition magneto so if oil pressure decreases, mag is shorted and plug will not
fire. If gas has has not been left in the carb, make sure oil is within a two threads of dipstick
before it starts to run out and unhook the yellow wire. Good chance engine starts, if it shuts

keeping eye on oil. possible oil sw. will free up inside and allow engine to run with it hookt
up as it should be. other engines have a little cube with 2 wires leaving it, This is either a
diode or quite possibly a transistor.
PROBABLY PROBLEM: 1- CARBURATTOR, 2-SPARK PLUG,3-CHOKE VALVE,,4-ELECTRİC CABLE,AND BUTTON.
Unplug the oil pressure switch. If it starts, change the switch. If it still doesn't start look for another problem
Yes, that's right. When the switch is closed, the wire is grounded, and the engine doesn't start. Either not enough oil, or the switch is broken. Make sure you have enough oil! It doesn't take much to wreck an engine without oil!
