@@colloidalsilver1096 thanks for watching! I’ve used this one because it’s a Huayi carburetor: a.co/d/7fRZeg2 and had great results. I’m probably going to start selling carburetors soon with the proper connector as well.
Hey bud I have a questions, I have one of these generators… recently took apart the carb and cleaned it up really well to include the jet and the brass orifice…. Used some carb cleaner so it was super clean then I ran fresh diesel into the tank with some seafoam…. To make sure it cleans anything that I might have missed…. My issue is that when I get to around 1600 it stumbles on its face then slowly tries to ramp Back up….never got it high or it to show overload any clue why it might be doing that ?
1600 watts? If your initial issue was old gas/gummed up carburetor, you probably didn’t clean the carburetor good enough. Those are really good engines and they will tolerate a lot so it’s not surprising that it’s able to run. I’ll be doing a video on carburetor cleaning soon but if you cleaned all that’s visible (including the plastic pilot jet) then just do the following 1.remove carburetor 2. Remove bowl 3. Blow compressed air into the small brass hole on the choke side of carburetor (there are two holes, you want the one on the side with the pilot jet) 4. Alternate spraying brake cleaner (no carb cleaner) and compressed air a few times and it should be good to go
@@ThatGeneratorGuy cleaned it out again and replaced the old filters, ran some ethonol free gas from buccee’s and some seafoam It finally ran to higher wattage and thanks!
@@dieseldawg7132, these carburetors have rubber parts and the carburetor cleaner will destroy them and make them gummy (float needle tip, bowl o-ring, and o-rings on the pilot jet). I use brake cleaner (the non-chlorinated) the whole way and never have to worry about ruining components. 👍🏻
@@ThatGeneratorGuy I see a lot of people just cleaning the carburetor. I left gas inside for like 2 months and it wont start now. I had a different generator do the same thing. Could a simple cleaning fix it? How do I know if I need a replacement
@@stormstrike1845 , You almost never need a replacement. Cleaning works 95% of the time for me. Most people though either don’t have the knowledge to properly clean it or just don’t care to spend their time cleaning and would rather toss a $30 generic in and have it up and running fast and easy. That’s why I made the adapter (for people who want to simplify their repair)
@@sreihart, Yes. It’s cheaper!👍🏻 A new OEM carb is $100+, plus tax. A generic carb will be $15-$25. If you’re the type of person who will need another carb in the future, great you already have the adapter and get another cheap generic, if not, it’s still cheaper than OEM to buy the connector too.
Hey sorry after looking at other comments and responses i ordered thank you for the videos and product
@@ClintSchuver thanks for the support!
Please recommend an after market carburetor for a eu1000i that you most use.

Can I purchase a plug that u make ?
Where did you buy the jst connector for the Honda cable. If I had one, I could fix mine. Great video, btw!
Thanks!
I think I got them from Digi Key
My carburetor is stuck to the engine, and my front gasket is caked on. What would you recommend to pull it off? It won’t event budge.
Thanks!
@@maximussam2466 , just pull harder. It will come off. It’s probably just stuck on there with old gas
Also, I’d tap/smack the bottom of the carb with the handle of a screwdriver to help break it free
Are you willing to sell the adapter. I would like to purchase one.
Yes,

Do you have the wire diagram trying to understand what the wires do
@@darrellwagster1619 I have never seen a wire diagram for the Honda step motor. I don’t know if there is one.

@@ThatGeneratorGuy quick question why the brake cleaner over the carb cleaner ???? Is there no coating on the fuel system we should worry about ???

Do you sell your conversion adapter?
Yes I do. You can get it here:
www.ebay.com/itm/135227537968
$60 shipping?
Usually it’s like $8. They’re UPS rates, not mine. If it’s that expensive you either selected a fast speed or you live far.
@@ThatGeneratorGuy ok

Is the pink on the new carburator the red on the factory plug?
Yes it is
If you're interested in purchasing the adapter, you can do so on ebay here: www.ebay.com/itm/135227537968
Wow. $43.30 for the adapter? That sure seems to be kind of high. I appreciate the video, but...
