I was 'exercising' the generator this weekend and noticed it was running rough. First it took a few try’s to get it started. When it did start without a load it alternated between running low rpm and higher (not high) rpm. After about 1 min I turned on the water heater and the revving continued then I turned on one stove element and the generator ran about 1 min then stopped. I turned off the lgenerator breaker and started it again but still revved up and down. Then I turned it off.
The generator did not get used that much last year so this year I thought I would start it once a week just so it has a chance to run.
I think its a 5KW gen from Kroler. The gas is from last year. I was thinking it could be old gas but the main engines run fine. I did a search on clubsearay and it suggest changing the spark plugs. The Gen has about 60hr on it.
What does everyone suggest?
