Hi dear, I have a Firman ECO3990ES 6.5HP generator. Before now, it carries comfortably my Sumo and big deep freezer. Now, if you put on the generator, it runs normally with a good sound but if you power the Sumo, the generator sounds like it is struggling to carry the Sumo. You can even feel it in the bulbs. I have to switch off other appliances just to pump water.

Also, if the generator is running and you touch the fuel cap or tank, you will definitely receive some electrical shock.

Please what can be the cause of this and what is the best solution for it.
Thanks.

Good evening engineers.. I got a maxmech generator rwd3800 2.5kva last month. The seller added oil for me as a gift.

Now I want to change the oil, what's the best oil spec for it and best brand?

Also I use 5ltr for 4-5hrs. Is this okay or too much?

What can I do to reduce fuel consumption if it's too much? Thanks.


Ps: I only use 32 inches LG TV, 3 energy saver bulbs, a laptop and phones







The gen still consumes fuel, how to tweak for fuel consumption has been treated in previous page.

mine 1k fuel takes me for 3days (7pm-10pm) ... And 4th day.. (7-9pm)
A fridge, TV, gotv,, 6 enegry bulb, 2 laptop, 2 ceiling fan, 2 standing fan, phones charging,

have you considered elepaq 2.5kva?

reliable and fuel economy. what do you intend to you it for?

I eventually went for the elepaz constant 2.5kva.

But i observed constant and yaofeng were crested on the to tank instead of elepaz.

Is this an original elepaz?is it better than normal elepaz

Engineers in d house please assist.

chelseamann:
check very well, it might be the oil seal that removed either from the front or back.Buy a new oil seal(#100-150) and replace it (if that's the case)..pls call an engineer if you can't do it by yourself.

you have to check first. because if there is no oil inside the engine. it will get knocked. you might be lucky Sha.

that why I check my oil level every week.
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by Habayomie(m): 4:24am On Aug 14, 2020
pls bosses, kindly suggest a 2.5kva gen that has low noise and good fuel economy.

bro my elepaq doesn't have any crested name. but it has been delivering and work well. so stop worrying yourself.

even some with crested do have issues. among all is to maintain the generator. always check oil level weekly. don't allowed it to be low. and the generator shouldn't work at a time more than 6 hours. allow it cool down.

from my observation lutian generator has the low know. I don't know how to achieve that because there are no sound proofing.

also giving generator load cause load noise. if you plan to give it load you should consider bigger Gen.

but if you lower elepaq firing down it's a bit low noise.

note, brand new Gen makes noise for up to a month or two before the noise normallized because the engine is not free properly expand are lubricated

if there is no firing at all when you drop the hook. check you plug. it might not be connected properly or bad plug.

also are you show the fuel tap is on?
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by fineboynl(m): 7:46am On Aug 14, 2020

every 100 to 150 hours or every month. also make you the oil is not low at any time ensure you too it when low on oil. adviceable to check every week. if it's old generator then check every 2 days.

ok thanks boss,
I don't think I need bigger gen, coz we usually have stable power supply in my area.
I have small tiger and 2.5 elepaq before,I sold the elepaq coz I hardly use it because of the stability of the power supply.I retained the small tiger,but my wife's cousin living around borrowed it last year for an occasion but did not return it ever since.
So I want something low noise and low fuel consumption., maybe I should go for the Lutian.
Gen is a liability.... economy is not smiling.

if you are sure the plug is good than service the carburetor.


before servicing the carburetor. first loose the screw underneath the carburetor to leak the dirty or contaminated fuel inside. then tight the screw back.

check if it will start.

note that if generator is not starting it's either the carburetor or the plug.
Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by fineboynl(m): 10:36am On Aug 14, 2020
this is the oil I have been using since I bought my generator. it's sold for 800N other I bought it 1200 at the market where I bought the generator. but at home it's sold for 800N. which means the selling guy cheated me at market.

do you know this oil? have you use it? and how much it's been sold at you location?

Re: Professor On Any Type Of Generator. by brandon180(m): 12:31pm On Aug 14, 2020

The bolded is not entirely true sir.
Plug and Carburettor are the first and second suspects but there are other factors like, a bad starting coil, piston/rings, valve and others.

from my experience, new plug is new plug..only packaging makes one costlier than the others.(I stand to be corrected though)

I don't want to go inside the engine and all that. but the most common problem is carburator and plug.
