I have had to take my eu2000i carb off once to clean it out. Owned about 10 years now. Not putting a fuel shut off is a bad choice by any generator maker. They by nature will sit until needed. The Hutch mountain fuel shut off is the best thing. Actually not a fuel shut off, but putting in a remote kill switch and letting the gen run out of fuel on it's own. The new switch it comes with is to kill it right now if needed. I wrote this for future readers maybe wanting to do this mod. It is a great solution to a great generator with a small flaw. I get what the gentleman said above. Who wants to have to fix something when all you want to do is use it.
My used like new eu2200i companion is in transit. I hope UPS is kind to it. Just today I received a new companion connecting cable set and an adapter for the round 30 amp companion plug to my Bigfoot RV plug. It came with it. Also from Hutch Mountain. I also just talked with my neighbor today about helping me lift the AC unit up on top on my Bigfoot this spring. I would like to do it now but it is in a carport and it's 20 degrees out.
I also sewed up a generator cover for my eu2000i made out of modern convertible top material. Now I need to make another one.
Is it summer yet?
EDIT: By the way, I use PRI-G fuel stabilizer. G for gas, PRI-D for diesel. The stuff is way better than stabil. It will even bring back old gas. I have used it for years and I living in the middle of nowhere with 21 power outages last year, store fuel for my home generators. It is a good product.
