    *100% best **Generater.Systems** I have used. A test for hurricane prep here in Louisiana: three AC units, 5000, 5000 & 8000, 3 fridges, 2 device power setups, 4 flat screens....AND I had 40% of the power meter to spare.*

    UPDATE:1 year and still cranks within the first 2-3 pulls. Probably will buy another when this one finally does bite the dust ua-cam.com/users/postUgkx43QMbQqu67IZadu9ou8Sg1BdrunMRNqX . No issues at all. Very happy with it.UPDATE: After 6 months of use and over 70 uses I would still highly recommend this pressure washer. It does vibrate a decent amount but never had it “walk” like others have mentioned. No oil leaks, still seems to run like the day I bought it. Still cranks within 2-3 pulls every time. Very happy with my purchase!Have used it about a dozen times now. Plenty of power, cranks up on 1-2 pulls every time. My only complaint would be I wish it was a little taller to make it easier to walk with it (hits my ankles a lot) and that the two hose connections were a little further apart but it hasn’t caused me any issues. Seems to run a good 1-1/2-2 hrs on a full tank, overall a well built machine and definitely worth the money in my opinion.

    I have a Generac GP7500E made is 2014. The engine was surging/hunting. Cleaning the carburetor with spray stuff didn't fix the problem so I decided to change the carburetor, $100 for parts, 2 day shipping and sales tax. These directions were PERFECT. It saved me time and Hundreds of Dollars. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

    I bought a little powermate couple years ago & just recently tried to start it up. Stored it covered outside in dry Arizona - but the carburetor linkage had corroded solid in wide open position.
    Boy, did it ever start up. Hope engine does not require a gentle break in period haha
    Ordered a new carb for $19.99. Pretty much the same as video showed - thanks for instructions

      I am trying to find that fucking carb and can't. Mine has that exact carb and it's nowhere to be found anyplace. Pramac tells me it's a chinese WEN engine and I believe it is... Only I cannot find that carb everyone but that carb

    Hi, is there another gasket on the other side of the carburetor?

    On my generator, I think the polling rod is in the correct spot. However, the regulating spring has a few different holes and I am not sure where it needs to go. I'm not talking about holes for the regulating springs on the actual carburetor, but on the other end of the regulating spring. I want to make sure I am on the correct setting so that I do not burn anything up. When I first got the generator it burned up the coil and spark plug. I replaced those items and then noticed that the choke lever on the carburetor was broken. Anyway, the company sent me a whole new carburetor assembly as it was under warranty. Do you know which setting/hole it should be on?

    For the 2350 is there any kind of mixture screw adjustment on the carburetor? It runs a little rich @ sea level. It's about a year old has a few hours on it. It's been great other than that. And over the weekend it was running at 5600 ft . I know there is elevation kits.. but I'm just wondering if there's a mixture screw? Or am I blind cuz I cannot see it.

    Nice quality video. However needing to replace a carb is extremely rare. 90% of carb problems are because they need to be cleaned, while another 9% are external issues such as air filter or choke.

    • @disguisedcat1750
      @disguisedcat1750 Рік тому +1

      Yes so instead of putting in a new one, take it off, clean it and put it back. Cleaning videos often dont show how to take it off.

    It is pretty sad when you have to LEGALLY tell someone to make sure the generator is OFF before they remove a carburetor. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I say thin the gene pool

      You can, but a new carburetor is only $20 bucks. Rather then mess with mine I just replaced the entire thing.
