Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that the 2000i has a pressure oil system. I'm pretty sure that it does for the fact that it has an oil shutdown system...
I think they are talking about the peak voltage for the batteries and not the peak AC voltage for the charger. You are talking about using an external battery...
As stated above, put it at ground level with the generator. Also, you do not need a line going down into the fuel in the Honda tank. As long as the cap it...
... paralleled? Roy: As a matter of fact, I did just that a year or so ago. The original post is reposted below from RV.net. The original is found at ...
No, the 2000i uses a float type oil level detector. Sometimes the 2000i will shutdown soon after starting when the oil is thick and sticks to the walls for a...
Overall I am very pleased with the 2000i's performance. My only reservation is that I like to run the unit with the eco-throttle feature on. Occassionally,...
I'll pass this on to those who use a Suzuki w/V6 or Tracker's with same engine as a toad. I found that I can split a rubber hose from the fuel pump to the...
... trailer - ... compartment ... caps ... Don't know if it is appropriate to respond to my own thread but it seems a success story is a good way to close...
Absolutely excellent data as testing - thank you very much for the report. It looks like unit one in your testing consistenly pulled more load that unit two....
I wouldn't go that far! I took the data over a year ago. So, I don't recall the exact conditions. If I had it to do over again, which I might in the near...
Except for adding expensive quick connects (I compute about $20 per connection), has anyone come up with a solution to this? It is difficult to tighten the...
I just bought my Honda about a month ago. I haven't had time to really use it yet. Yesterday I took it out to start it up and see how it works. It wouldn't...
I don't really have much advice for you. Do you know for a fact that the gas is good? I know that Honda's are picky about having clean gas that is relatively...
... snip I had the same problem and it turns out that the carburator is dirty. The jets in the little carb are soooooo tiny that the smallest particle will...
Dean, The 4 conductor outlets are for 240v AC. Two of the conductors carry 120v each, one is neutral and the last one is ground. If you are just using a single...
Here is a tip for those of us not fortunate enough to have our own source of renewable energy in such an outtage. I live in an area where winter storms can...
Chris, As I understand how the Honda EU's work, the generator which is started 2nd in a paralleled set will track the 1st one. This is how it maintains phase...
Mobil 1 from day one in both of my EU2000's and nary a problem. Cheap insurance in my opinion (especially since the EU's hold so little oil). David W. ... 1 ...
The unit always ran on fresh fuel. The intake valve has a rubber seal to keep most oil out of the valve stem but even a little could have gummed it up. It...
I was brainstorming over on RV.net about how it would be neat to have a remote activated switch for the Eco-throttle that hooked to the air- conditioner...
In my setup made last week by reading this thread, the 5/16" marine grade fuel hose attaches to a straight, long, brass barb epoxied through the fuel cap. sI...
While riding into Slab City yesterday I got behind an old RV with a Honda 2000i on the back bumper. The owner had made a custom fitted angle iron cage around...
Dave, it's almost surely due to fuel gums/combustion byproducts blowby. Use of a top quality high detergent fuel such as Chevron with Techron (propietary...
Mike R. over on RV.net pointed out this item on e-bay Gen-A-Shed for EU2000i EU1000i Honda Portable Generator http://www.hayesequipment.com/hayes_products.htm ...
All, I've heard you don't want to run synthetic in a new engine. It will not allow the rings and valves to seat properly. I was told that it is best to go 2...
On the first oil change I went with synthetic. As mentioned it takes so little so why not? The brand makes little difference as they are all good. Some have...
The Eco switch is just single pole - single throw (SPST). It would be simple to have a DPST relay connected to the AC's fan to give the generators a heads up...
