Thanks for the great thread, it's come in handy...
I do have a problem still however -
EU1000 is my model, last year I used it pretty hard for one weekend max load 16 hours straight a day for 4 days,,, new oil to start and new oil afterwards - always use Seafoam then it was put away and the first time I started it no proper idle - choke required - ah dirt ok - followed instructions near exact for 1000..
It never responded - so 3-4 attempts of cleaning and reassembly taking very close note that all gaskets hoses etc were proper...still same hunting at idle and needed half choke to run,,,
Ok now finally get back to it today - determined to fix it - pulled it all apart thoroughly cleaned all parts with carb cleaner and compressed air 3 times,,,, not tested yet fingers crossed....
First issue - I noticed the throttle doesn't spring back it stays were I place it - did a thorough cleaning of it...I guess I managed to leave it in wide open position as when I started the genie for the first time after re-assembly it ran at 5440rpm with eco throttle on..
SOOO I pulled all apart again another thorough cleaning and drying with compressed air and turned throttle closed this time no spring action...reassembled and voila seems to work great at idle with max load it increases idle and goes back down -
Second issue - idle on eco is now running 4150rpm no load when it use to be 3950rpm,,, is this a problem I can resolve..
Third Issue - it hunts with full wide open throttle with max load... not terrible hunting but it is hunting almost 200rpm up down with max load on,,
Any suggestions ??
Again great site and Honda Genie thread
Thank You,
Regards,
Brian
