First of all, I would think that the subject of grounding is as, or even more important in marine use. All that water ! You are right, the generator doesn't...
I would respectfully disagree. A load which has a ground is a three wire load, black (hot), white (neutral), and green (ground). The green or ground may be...
REMEMBER: IF THE GENERATOR ISN'T GROUNDED TO THE BOAT, YOU CAN'T GET ELECTROCUTED BY CONNECTING TO THE ELECTRICITY IT PUTS OUT. A CIRCUIT IS JUST THAT: A...
When I grab the positive side with one sweaty hand, and the ground side with the other, only the resistance of my body limits the current flow... Am I being...
There is not enough information in your description to answer your question. You would need to clarify what "positive" and "ground" means for your description....
Thank you, Roger Blair, for a good explanation. I raised this question with my recently retired, and former ham radio operator electrician friend. He mentioned...
Krylon Camouflage Olive Drab. It works great. You may want to wait a week before you spill gasoline on the paint. After a week it holds up great. Spilled gas...
I mixed up the first tank of gas with Sta-Bil in Nov 2007, and have run it only a couple of hours since then. How long is it safe to leave the gas in there...
I've always used one year as a rule, and have never had a problem. I do think that smaller carbs gum up faster though, so you may not want to stretch it as...
i mark my tank with a strip of masking tape and the month/year it was filled. I try to change it out after one year if it hasn't been used up. A few times I...
It might also be helpful to drain the carb (little screw at the bottom of the carb connected to a clear plastic drain hose) at the same time the tank is dumped...
I always recommend for long storage mixing a slightly "Stabil-heavy" batch of gasoline, then run that through the engine until it runs out of gas. Then drain...
Hi everyone. I use my generator to run computers for a computer class which I hold on a converted mini-bus for school children. The other day, my husband...
OK, since it's been running fine for the last year, and this only began when overfilled (quite a bit) with oil points to the problem. How is was so overfilled...
Yea JD I have been thing about that too.Considering your told that you need to fill the oil up too the bottom of the threads of the Oil fill hole.Any extra...
There has to be more to this that too much oil. With the generator setting level and the oil fill cap removed it is impossible to "overfill" it. Jim \...
All I was doing is taking at her word that her husband overfilled the crankcase with oil. If true, then the symptoms she described are a classical result of...
Yes, it certainly can. It can certainly get into the carb via the crankcase breather and air filter, and ultimately out the exhaust. I've not heard of turning...
I have turned mine upside down several times with no ill effects. I use a turkey baster type bulb that is made for adding water to a battery to get most of the...
Not to add fuel to the fire, but I own four 1000s and a 2000, run them in sequence for 100 to 140 hours per week (fulltime RVer off the grid), buy gas from...
Not fuel to the fire at all. Observations and experiences are what these forums are all about. I know I keep harping on the crankcase breather, but this small,...
Does anyone have a graphic diagram of the crankcase breather and how it vents into the carburetor? I think the answer to the high oil lies in this area. To the...
I want to run one of the modern three stage chargers with the EU2000i. I have had several technicians from the charger companies say they have heard that...
I have both of those items but have not used them together. The charger gets plugged into the building power for the weekend. I will have to try them out. I...
