Is there some carb cleaner that you would recommend using on a regular interval, as a "preventive measure". I have a newer H2000i w/ only 1 hr on it. Would some regular spray cleaner help keep it cleaner-longer ? Also, using this procedure, have you ever chg'ed the jet to a "high altitude" one ? When is that really necessary ? My manual doesn't say. I'm going to S. Utah, Grand CAnyon areas-avg elev 7500". Thnx
My Carb Cleaner of choice is "Sea Foam" you can find it in wally world in the auto dept.... use as directed.
I use it in my gas with all my old snow blowers, generators lawnmowers and cars and i like it. it can also be used in the oil or dumped in the carburetor while running.

We have traveled and ran our Eu2000i genny clear up to 9500ft many times without changing the jets. The biggest load we ever put on the genny is for the Microwave. We do not have AC. I do run to recover my
Engine power will begin to suffer as you get over 4000ft.
I do run premium gas and exclusive (most of the time) Chevron with techron. The techron keeps the valves and piston top clean.
If I think we are not going to use the genny for a couple of mos I will use a dose of Stabil in the tank, and run the genny for 10 min or so to make sure it gets into the carb.
It's pretty hard to spray Seafoam into the carb while running. I elect not to do that. You can get the kind that you can add to your fuel. Again I elect to use Stabil.
