Quick question while on the road trying to trouble shoot.
Every few days I have to dry out my air filter because one unit will not start.
Has anyone encountered this? The filter seems full of fuel,
Stopping air flow.
Looking for reason this would happen!

Definitely fuel? Is the airtube which goes from the airfilter box to the carburetor wet, as well? My experience on purchasing my first Champion 2000 Watt inverter generator a couple of years back, I opened the box in the parking lot at the Sam's Club and filled the car and the generator with fuel, leaving the gas shut-off in the on position, I drove home. It leaked fuel from a tiny little vent-hole in the carburetor everywhere. Turns out, that for whatever reason the float shifted and held the needle and seat open. Removing the bowl and emptied the fuel, shifted the float and it operated up and down with my finger, put the bowl back and never did it, again. That is the only think I could think of. Good luck. If that doesn't help, customer service.
