Have been eagerly reading all that I could about servicing this Gen. Mine is 7 years old and has never been serviced! It has always started first pull so it was a surprise when it grumbled and died! Cleaned the carb (however didn't get into the jet part as S.O. said it wasn't gunked up!) replaced fuel, and spark plug. Have spark but sounds like its starved for fuel. Once got it to run for a moment but only weakly.
Should I look at the fuel filter? Have to add that it has run @ 1/2 throttle for years...only recently did it start to surge sometimes. Must add...I'm female and motors aren't my thing but I'm willing to learn! My little genny goes horse camping with me and powers all of my electric yard tools! We are companions!!
