Great video! Hope to see more generator review videos in the future! I'm skeptical of which one i should purchase, just not sure of how big of a load i may have, ya know
@@WeSRT4 Depending on ambient temperature, that may too thick. per harbor freights generator's owner manual, it states 10W30 is recommended for "general use" running a 15w40 in too cold of temperatures could (per Amsoil's inside track viscosity recommendation page) "be too thick to flow quickly enough to fill the spaces between the crank journals and main bearings while the engine is running."
Another cool video! Fun stuff.
i would recommend a magnetic oil plug to get the metal out of it. Could you please share what software you used to show the sinus wave?

Oh yes i definitely know what you mean brother my loads are huge these days so a good generator is a must!
If you are breaking the engine in, you may not want to run it under load.
Anyone that has this model.. does it have a gas gauge? I have it and drives me nuts.
@@joshfiske6312mine does not!
@@Mikebuildss ok lol so it's all of em. Drove me nuts
@@joshfiske6312 I feel your pain, the larger 2000 watt one and up do have fuel gauges,
Very loud generator... don't camp next to me with that rock rattler
@@ramlinman2004 agreed it’s loud, the 2000 watt one is much quieter
Seeing people use 10w30 in an air cooled engine makes me cringe. I realize the manufacturer recommends it but they aren't doing you any favors.
I change it very often!
@@Mikebuildss Do yourself a favor and use Rotella 15w40

@@alwaysandy1 Not for me... I live on the Gulf Coast. During the winter I would run a HDEO 10w30.
