    Honda Generator Problems

    B5MECH , you have hit the nail on the head . I think some plug / connection wasn't right and they plugged in and away she went . Got to make up a story now to charge the minimum hour and hey presto a blocked carby ! Last dollar I will ever spend in that place

    Honda Generator Problems

    The dealer will not elaborate more than blocked carby , which is a complete load . I'll take the side plate off and see if I can see any signs , I'll check all the screws to see if any others have been taken out also . If I find something I'll let you all know . But of a mystery really ??
