Pls i bought the gen 2 weeks ago 4.0kva/4.5kva and i am wondering why it won't power my washing machine. Kindly advice pls

UbongCR7:
So I started following this thread cos I moved in to an apartment and to my utmost surprise, I realised that the area has not had light for about 3 weeks prior to my moving in cos of transformer issues.

So I am now left with the option of getting a generator in the interim.

Which generator would anyone advise me to get, that is cost effective and that will be able to pump water, my smart TV, a fridge, and iron (all won't be running concurrently)

Cost effectiveness is also of importance.

Thanks.

DanielsParker:
How useful can this be for me?
Our transformer is bad, I don’t know how long this is going to take to fix.
My main generator has spoilt beyond repairs and my budget is limited.

Im a single guy, I don’t cook often’. I need my laptop, phones and Tv on all the time. I’ve got a smarttv, iron, microwave, 145L fridge. Although I don’t want to use all at the same time..

frankobobby:
Please house, can 'I better pass my neighbor' gen power 43 inches television? If no, what is the minimum generator I can buy to power my TV? Thanks

DAVIDOLAWALE:
Good day house please I use sumec Firman 2700 how many liters of petrol can it consume per hour ?
Thanks

TheDoc:
Good evening house.
I took my generator (3000) for repair after being kept for very long period of time due to breakdown and was advice to better change the half engine of which I was giving 3 quotations, 36k, 45k and 68k.
I need it just for pumping my 0.75hp borehole.
Will the 36k half engine be enough for me? Will 3000 gen be OK for 0.75hp borehole?
Champion is the name of the gen.
Kindly advice.

casig:

Thanks a bunch. Please can you give some of the safety measures?

Akell:
Please, just this night, I tried turning off my generator but instead of shutting down, it kept on running and I could see sparks and dark fumes coming from the exhaust with a little bit of gunshot sound.

My professors, what could be the issue?

OllyArt:
Please I want to buy this generator 5.5kva for 155k what's your thoughts I want to use it for my printing business, can it power a DI machine or Heat Press Machine?

Yamleg:
Please I need a pumping machine technician.

I need your inputs, please.

Since last week, my pumping machine only works with Generator. While it does not pump using Nepa/phcn light ( although the switch turns oN).

I've replaced the capacitor yet issue persists.

What could be wrong?

Enyinne:

mistarsam:
I know this question might have been answered before but there's no harm in asking again.

Is SAE 40 (Mobile/Techno brand) engine oil good for generators (Sumec Firman Eco3990es, 2.5KVA in particular)?

AgentGoat:

I want to replace the "follow-come" carburettor of my big generator with the the hybrid carburettor that allows the use of both petrol and cooking gas. Is that a good idea?

KINGKONG:
Dear gents

I want to get a good generator for my wife's shop, What she sells are just sewing supplies, But there's Industrial weaving machine (1pc), Stoning machine (This machine is really heavy on generator), Industrial sewing machine (1pc) and i'm planning on buying button tacking machine too

Note: This machines are not operated everyday except for the weaving machines because she's not into full time sewing again.... But i need a generator that will carry that stoning machine comfortably without issues.

Budget is not an issue........

EmmanuelCena:
The gen has compression:
The plug was removed and manually started- There was forceful air observed coming out.

Fuel supply is okay:
One of the bolts beneath the carburettor was loosened, fuel was observed to come out.
After it fully drained out, the fuel pump was put on to confirm there is no blockage to the flow of fuel- Fuel was observed to come out with no restriction

The oil alert switch has been disconnected:
a yellow cable, the oil alert cable was disconnected and the gen started
It still did not come up.

I also tried another plug but, the gen still did not come up.


Any suggestions on what the cause could be ?
thanks

Nu3L:

Hello bosses, what's your take on power value 3800 generator. Is it a good product?

ajimuguda:
Good evening,

Please I would like to know types of half engine to buy for my Haier Thermocool Tec Gen Petrol Major Electric Start Major 3500es 3.0KW/3.3KW. The gen is consumed oil and I was advice to buy half engine but dont know types to buy and horse power.

Please any price idea?

Spirit04:
how good is this generator?
I'm planning on buying it tomorrow

EmmanuelCena:


Good evening boss.

My Sumec Fireman FPG4800E2 just tripped off.
I put it on; it powered for about 1 minute, and suddenly tripped off.
I tried to start it manually but, it did not come up.

I then changed the oil (The oil was actually spent as evident in the color).
I also cleaned the plug, it was not really dirty (but to play safe)
I checked the oil filter, and it was good. But, it still did not come up, both via key start or manual start.
I then changed the plug with a new plug, but it still did not come up.

It is not even starting at all, not like it is a choke problem.

Please, What could be the issue?

I purchased the sumec in February from an authorised dealer, so I'm sure it's not fake.


Additional info
The only load I use it with is a Thermocool inverter freezer, smart Tv and power-saving bulbs.
Whenever I make use of a 1,000 Watt Microwave, I always put off the inverter freezer to ensure the load is not excessive.

When it tripped off, the only load on it was the inverter freezer.


I don't want these repairers to start touching things that would result in more faults. (Except it's absolutely necessary that they check it) .

Good Afternoon

My generator is burning oil as the engine oil always short. I called a repairer he said I need to buy half engine (35k) that if I rinse the engine that it is 50 : 50 chance it will work that it might take sometime before it start burning again. He said if it's rinsing that I want to do that I will buy Piston, Centre Package and Connecting Rod.



Get a half engine...that's the price now.

35k


The generator is I think less than 2 years old bought it brand new (Maxi E10M)

House please what do you think

Professors In the house I need your guidance. I intend to get a half engine block for this gen and I'm confused at the different prices i'm getting. Someone told me to go get it at Ebute-metta. I reside at Sangotedo Area Lagos. Please I would like your advise on where to get it and if you have an idea of how much it will cost. Will appreciate your quick response. Thanks.
