Help Me Identify The Problem With My Generator. by PROVERBZ(m): 4:49pm On Nov 04, 2021
So guys I've been trying to turn on my generator a couple of times now and I noticed this:
I've put in enough fuel but after like two minutes, the power coming in begins to dwindle and then it turns off as if there is no petrol inside.
For those with the knowledge try and point out what's the fault so that I can watch YouTube videos on how to fix it.

Please don't come under the comments and suggest that I take it to the shop or call a guy.
I'm trying to be that guy that fixes things around plus I'm a student and have no money currently to fix it lol.

Change the engine oil and if it’s small gen, mix enough oil to it.

Check the hose that connects fuel tank and carburetor... make sure the hose is free.

Check fuel tank for rust particles, e fit block the fuel tap.


Finally if e no be "I pass my neighbor", check oil.
