Re: Honda 2000i Carb Job With Photos Must Read!!!!!
Thank you, thank you...(still feeling a bit proud) It was really all very simple now that I look back at it. Those instructions were amazing and how thankful I am to those people that take time to help others. I telephoned the local repair center and was told minimum of 3-4 weeks and many $$$$.....HaHaHa!!!!I feel good!472Views0likes0CommentsRe: Honda 2000i Carb Job With Photos Must Read!!!!!
Yeah...Taking a bow! My FIRST carburetor job!!! Wouldn't start after working on it for most of the day...I think I have pulled that cord well over a 100 times...taking apart the case was like a cartoon in itself. Thankfully found the video that showed the two long screws from the rear. DUH sigh..difficult when you are working with someone with "all the answers"....anyway...Cleaned the fuel filter also but wouldn't start. At dark thirty with one last attempt I insisted on removing the carb and following ALL of the directions with cleaning out the jet too. Doing the happy Dance!!!! Started with the very first pull. Oh yes, found some trash in the bowl that my SO didn't want to remove and clean also earlier. You guys are the greatest! My genny and I are happy!!! By the way...I am a 60 year old woman that has never done anything like this before...proves all you have to do is try! :o)472Views0likes0CommentsRe: Honda 2000i Carb Job With Photos Must Read!!!!!
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!!472Views0likes0Comments
