Ok, here's the story. During the Ice storm of 2009, my parents had a natural gas fired Generac generator hooked to their house. They lost power for around 13 days and the generator ran pretty consistently. After the ice storm, they tried to restart the generator for its normal run interval and it wouldn't start. After playing around with it, I got the generator to run but it seemed to have a miss. They called their local generac dealership who sent techs out to look at the generator. They indicated that the engine in it had bent a rod somehow. Instead of fixing the generator, my parents bought a new one and gave the old one to me to fix or do whatever with. My question is, could someone who has typical small engine repair skills work on the engine? I know little about the difference between natural gas fired and regular pump gas fired engines? What do you guys think? Thanks!!
