Overcrank Fault Generac Protector QS Error code 1100. Way too cold to start.

Generac Protector QS series generator won't start. In this video, I troubleshoot a Generac Protector QS generator that has an overcrank fault. Join me as I inspect the generator and find that the battery post had significant corrosion and the block heater was not operating.
On the day the overcrank fault occurred, the cold weather hit and the temperature dropped to a frigid -2 degrees Fahrenheit. Due to the block heater malfunction, the generator struggled to start and just kept cranking.
Natural gas generators can struggle to start in cold temperatures without a block heater due to several reasons:
Cold Oil Viscosity: In cold temperatures, the engine oil thickens, making it more viscous. This increased viscosity makes it harder for the engine to turn over because the oil doesn't flow as easily through the engine components. A block heater warms the engine and oil, reducing the viscosity and allowing the engine to start more easily.
Battery Performance: Cold temperatures can significantly reduce a battery's capacity and ability to deliver power. A block heater helps keep the engine warm, which in turn reduces the load on the battery during start-up.
Fuel Vaporization: Natural gas needs to vaporize to mix properly with air for combustion. In extremely cold temperatures, the vaporization process can be hindered, leading to incomplete combustion or failure to ignite. A warm engine helps improve the vaporization of natural gas, ensuring a proper air-fuel mixture for ignition.
Condensation and Icing: Cold temperatures can cause condensation to form within the fuel lines, which can then freeze and block the flow of natural gas. A block heater keeps the engine and surrounding components warm, preventing condensation and icing issues.
Engine Block Temperature: The engine block itself can become extremely cold, making it difficult for the combustion process to start. A cold engine block can absorb heat from the combustion chamber, making it harder for the initial combustion to occur. Warming the engine block with a block heater helps maintain a temperature conducive to efficient combustion.
Starter Motor Strain: Cold weather increases the strain on the starter motor because it requires more effort to turn over a cold, stiff engine. A block heater reduces this strain by keeping the engine warm and easier to crank.
By using a block heater, the engine's internal components, oil, and fuel are kept at a temperature that allows for easier starting and more efficient operation in cold weather. This helps ensure the generator can reliably start and operate when needed, even in harsh winter conditions.
Please Note: Always refer to the generator service manual for specific service information.

      La otra manguita es por donde sale el exceso de gasolina en el caso de que la aguja de la boya no funcione como debe ya sea por que esta sucia o dañada. La aguja previene que se sobre llene el bowl de gasolina. Si se sobrellena entonces se sale por esa manga para prevenir que te inunde el generador.

    • @tacticalpowerpro

      All liquid cooled and air cooled generators will need some sort of block heater (inline coolant heater, oil pan heater, dipstick heater, oil filter warmer etc.) to keep the generator warm and ready to go at temperatures under 32F. So it doesn’t matter what brand of size generator you looking for, make sure it has a working block heater (or cold weather kit) during cold weathers. As far as the weekly test you are correct. The problem occurred during it’s weekly test, that’s how the store found out and gave me a call.

I'm getting fuel to the carb but I didn't take apart the carb like you did. I'm guessing the main jet is completely clogged from non use?

      To remove the carburetor you will need to remove the black air box which has 1 uncomfortable bolt in the bottom back of the box and two nuts in the front of the carburetor (one is inside the air box the other one is outside). Once you remove the air box you can slide forward the carburetor, remove the throttle linkage and spring and remove the fuel line (make sure the fuel valve is off).

    Una pregunta!!!! Mi generador inverter es de 2000w prende muy bien... es muy estable... pero aveces prende el overload y no pasa corriente... Lo hace literalmente cuando le da la gana.... puede estar horas prendida o solo unos minutos... El punto es que lo hace cuando se le pega las ganas de jod3r..... CREES Q SOLUCIONE EL PROBLEMA COMPRANDO EL MODULO NUEVO???? ya se verifico todo hasta saque el modulo y no veo nada explotado... PUDIESE SER Q SE ESTE DAÑANDO POCO A POCO??? SALUDOS DESDE PR..

      Saludos! Primero asegúrate que en realidad no la estés sobrecargado con lo que le estas conectando. Lo otro sería verificar que no haya conexiones sueltas en especial desde el modulo al circuit breaker y receptáculos que causen un arco con la vibración del generador y se proteja tirando el overload. Si todo eso esta bien pues entonces el módulo inverter esta malito.

    • @tacticalpowerpro
      @tacticalpowerpro 11 днів тому

      A few things. Verify carburetor gaskets are good and placed in the correct spot. Verify the plastic spacer between the carburetor and the engine block is not cracked. Make sure the carburetor is secured (both nuts are nice and tight). Make sure fuel flow to the carburetor is good and not restricted. Make sure you have fresh fuel and not old bad fuel in the tank. Gap your spark plug to the correct gap. Or you have a bad new carburetor, It has happened to me before specially with the cheap Chinese carbs (give the new carb a clean)

    Hello Tactical Power Pro, great video. I have a question, in 2019 I bought a Westinghouse WH2200iXLT inverter generator identical to the one you show in your video, I took it out of the box, ran it for about 16 minutes to test it and to finish the small amount of gas I put in and then, kept it all this time inside my house (air conditioning), today, in preparation for hurricane season, (I’m in South Florida), I took it out and put a little gasoline and oil in it and followed the instructions to start it without success, I noticed that almost all the gasoline had escaped from under the inverter. Any idea what it could be? Thank you in advance. 😃😃😃

    • @tacticalpowerpro

      Also, if the gasoline is coming out the inverter you might either have the carburetor fuel drain screw open, the float needle is stuck or a cracked fuel hose.

      @@tacticalpowerpro Thank you tactical power pro for your response. As I mentioned before, when I took the inverter out of the box, I turned it on for about 15 minutes in 2019, and from there, I put it away. Yesterday (01/08/2024) I decided to turn it on and it didn't turn on and I found a puddle of gasoline under the inverter. Today I tried it again and surprise, it turned on for about 8 seconds but I it ran out of gas since I hadn't added more. (By the way, the carburetor fuel drain screw is not open) Since I am not mechanically oriented, I am going to open it and use common sense, I am going to follow the course that the gasoline takes from the tank to the carburetor to see if I see a leak, I assume that perhaps the fuel has degraded a hose or joint that bring the gasoline to the carburetor. I hope it works and thanks for your help. (Out of curiosity, do you have a video "How to repair a Ryobi inverter electric generator" in Spanish, do you speak Spanish?) 😃😃😃

      @@tacticalpowerpro Yes, I do. I am from Colombia but I came to the United States many years ago. I used to work on an Italian cruise ship and I used to go at least once a month to Puerto Rico, beautiful country and good food. Regarding the fuel leak, initially, I asked my son to put gasoline in it and I think he spilled it, I checked since yesterday and the inverter does not leak, so that is not a problem anymore. I drained the carburetor and the first fuel that came out was somewhat greenish, since then I have filled it and drain it 3 more times. I was able to start it few times for few seconds which is encouraging; a friend suggested putting in injector and carburetor cleaner or something similar, he thinks that might help to clean it. That is my next step. Thanks again Tactical P P and I will continue watching your videos, I have learned a lot so far.

    Can the fuel be turned off and the carb run dry between uses?

    • @tacticalpowerpro
      @tacticalpowerpro 28 днів тому

      No, the way the fuel valve on these Ai-power inverters (and other brands of similar size) work is they integrated the fuel valve, the choke and the ignition switch all together in one switch (the start, run, stop switch). So if you close the fuel valve at the same time it will ground the ignition switch turning the generator off. Hope I was able to explain it clearly.
