I have a Generac 15KW generator, it's been reliable for about 10 years. I shut it off while we are sleeping, simply to save a couple of bucks. This am, I tried to start it, and it would run itself for a few seconds, and then shut off. I checked the propane tank, so I had fuel. I checked the system fuse, it's ok. The oil is good. I finally got it going by turning all the breakers in the transfer switch off, letting the generator get started, then turning the breakers back on. Everything seems to be running ok, but the experience worries me, I am looking at 5 or 6 days of no power here, and temperatures in the low single digits. Any idea what happened?
