Let's Talk Generators (is this a good one?)

Johnny,that's a heck of a deal...I have one suggestion for ya,get some straight gasoline, VP Racing fuels sells a 94 octane small engine fuel that has no ethanol..it's $10.00 a gallon,availble in 5 gallon pails.I run it in my small engines at my Fire Dept. Or,find some Seafoam addittive,to use with ethanol,but it's just as expensive..no more than you will use your generator,your carb will get gummed up,not starting when you need it. A rebuild on a carb. will be about $80.00

Johnny, similar to what Buckshot above said, I use Sta-bil marine in mine. When you get done with using it, run the gas out of the carb. It should have a tank cut off valve. First, before you run it more than just testing it, change the oil, and keep track of the hours or tanks of gas. you run thru it. Change it every 100 hours and it will out last you. Sounds like you got a very good deal. Make sure and get the owners manual that will give you the particulars on how it operates, and a wiring diagram in case you ever have to do any trouble shooting or decide to change the wiring in the panel... Good luck!
