This is a pre start up report on my little Champion 2kw inverter gen.
It isn't going to start.
It didn't start without starting fluid (and I do know how to use it, in the filter element not down the throat of the carb) last time,
and it isn't going to start this weekend when I test it.
So....my thoughts are to dump out all the gas, ethanol free or not, and start over, and run it for several hours with a good slug
of Sea Foam in it. I bet it's that simple. Something must be sticking as I don't smell gas after pulling and pulling.
And no, with treated non ethanol gas, I haven't been running it dry. Sometimes that doesn't help either I've found in the past.
