Honeywell 2000i fixed
I have one of those hard starting hw2000i generators, hardly ever use it, but start generator up every 6 months or so when I'm in shed. Today I decided to finally fix it so it starts up easier. I picked up a squeeze primer bulb used for outboard motors put it between tank and fuel cut off switch. There is a compartment under tank, bulb just fits after a little trimming.
After gassing gen. I pumped primer until I could see fuel go thru fuel filter. Started 2nd pull. I went back out several hours later and first pull starts it. I was kinda proud of myself.
