For discussion's sake, has anybody reading this thread ever heard of an eu-generator's timing belt breaking? I have to say I fear the plastic camshaft more than the timing belt, yet all I hear about these engines is that they just keep going without failures.
I absolutely don't like the plastic parts, but what matters to me in the end is the overall reliability.
No different than anyone else I wondered about those plastic camshafts before buying an EU2000i but with hundreds of thousands if not millions of these gensets in use around the world I concluded Honda engineers must know what they're doing. As it turned out I never had a lick of trouble with the 2 units I owned, one manufactured in Japan and the other in Thailand, and wouldn't have any hesitation buying another if it fit my needs. :B
