Man I’m sorry to hear. Have you tried or have any starting fluid? I usually have to use some the first time.
I was about to take the carburator out and my roommate pointed out a small valve on top of the gas tank... Thank God for second opinions

Yep. My problem is not having an easy way to hookup and with all of the heaters & pumps I was already pulling 3000 watts of about 5000 useable. Leaving 2k for fridges, one light and phone chargers.
Well power out again. Seems they're gonna roll a minimum 3 hrs.... im sleeping with Jenny tonight... forget the grid. Talk to him in morning. Enough of this.

I'm a total airhead, I forgot to open the airvalve... All is good on my part now haha
Good. I pulled mine 25 times after it was out in the cold for a few days under the covered patio And no start. I usually start it once per month and, of course, it starts on the second pull in the warm weather. One shot of starter fluid and it fired right up.

I had to tell another reefer to always run it in your back yard and never in front of your house for that very reason. Generators are one of the most commonly stolen pieces of equipment.

Yep I always worry about that. That’s why I take the handle bar or whatever you want to call it off. Then it becomes a dead weight that people have to lift. I sleep out in the living room where I can hear + a light test is on the genny. It wakes me up pretty quick when the sound goes away and the light goes out. My shotgun is on the way to the front door for that very reason.

I would really like to move it to the backyard.
