A mod for Honda EU generator owners
HERE. About 45 minutes. Just did mine
Forum Discussion
OK -- good video and good workmanship -- but now (of course) a few questions:
What does the cutoff valve accomplish that draining the float bowl doesn't accomplish?
I noticed that when he checked the float bowl after the motor ran itself dry, there was still some gas -- so it seems to me that draining the float bowl will do the same thing, only better?
And finally, I am a little surprised that he drained the gas right onto the floor of his garage. When I drain the carb, I put the generator up on some blocks and position a little paper cup under the outflow tube so that the gas does not spill. (On the other hand, I am one of those odd people who really like the smell of gas, so maybe I will start spilling a little on the concrete after all. ;) )
