Englandboy: Seems the oil in genset sump is too much. Guage it with its dip stick as you remove excess oil. |

Englandboy: One reason is because recent silencer designs are optimised to save material cost at the expense of a little additional noise discomfort. |

Englandboy: Air filters ensure that the air needed for combustion in your engine is free from debris. It is located at the entrance of your carburettor. You can clean it by soaking it in fuel and squeezing out to dry state before reuse. Remember to clean during every genset service. |

Babson4u: Your current caburattor valves are not allowing controlled air inflow into the engine because of wear. Replace the carburettor. |

seankafor: Yes, If the mains voltage is very low and below it's designed unsafe value, the stabilizer will not supply output. This is because it's output voltage will not be stepped up enough to a safe value. 1 Like 1 Share |

TheLoneCitizen: No, using the SAE 40 wasn't a good recommendation because SAE 40 is what is called a “straight-weight” motor oil. Its viscosity (resistance to flow) declines with increasing temperature, in accordance with the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) specification for a 40-weight oil. Your choice should be SAE 20W-50 is an oil containing compounds called “viscosity index improvers,” generally long-chain molecules that curl up at low temperatures but stretch out at higher temperatures, such that the oil has a viscosity characteristic of a 20-weight oil at the lower test temperature (IIRC, 100 degrees F) but that of a 50-weight oil at the upper test temperature (IIRC, about 200 degrees F). 20W-50 is just one of many so-called “multi-vis” specifications; the viscosities of multi-vis oils decline with temperature, but not as rapidly as a straight-weight. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Babson4u: The valve surfaces on your carburettor are worn thus restricting its free movement with air inflow. Replace the carburettor with a new one. |

Check out earlier discussions on the reasons for this oil-fuel ratio for better understanding. Ismaxtr3: |

Replace the cooling plastic. The plastic prevents over heating by directing cooling air over the engine fins. Also ensure the fuel oil ratio is 50:2. That is 2cups of oil. Ismaxtr3: |

mrrandomguy: @mrrandomguy you are right however, an oil ratio of 2:50 in litres guarantees a good performance of your engine .... whatever quality you have. |

fijiano202: The sound might just be from a loose bolt. Check for loose bolts and tighten well. |

Tip 24: Common Problems and Solutions Genset stops with loud noise and smoke escape from armature coil compartment. *When this happens, you will notice a loss of compression pressure if you drag the starter coil rope. The sound will also be different. Starting the genset again would be difficult. *The solution lies in replacement of the oil seal of the armature coil compartment. *Ensure you apply glue to the oil seal slot and tight fit appropriately in order to prevent slippage due to pressure. *Recouple genset and its back to normal operation. |

Onyedelichi: I don't think it's the oil change. However, maintain your previous oil brand. Investigate the source of the loud strange sound. |

Israeltt: No you do not have to service it if the 50hr run duration has not been reached. |

iBanger: Using a 3.5kva will be better because it will consume lesser fuel than the 4.5kva |

Tip 23: Common Problems and Solutions Recoiled Armature not producing full voltage on load. *Having recoiled your faulty armature and you notice a drop in voltage generated on load, the best thing to do is to increase the value of the capacitor slightly. *This can be done by using a higher value capacitor or adding in parallel, another capacitor to the existing one. *This increased capacitance will in turn improve the starter coil current which will in turn increase the rotor induced current and thus ensure the armature voltage is increased. *Adjust the speed of your genset to align with correct voltage on load. |

Ambihill: Yes your genset will consume slightly more fuel since there would be lesser back pressure and the noise generated will be louder too. It's advisable to close the extra holes. |

Tip 22: Common Problems and Solutions Damaged Rotor Coil Bearing. *You are advised to use a bearing puller to remove this 6203 bearing from the coil shaft. *Replace with same part no. and use a rubber mallet to refit back to shaft. *Ensure you note the position of the bearing pin when coupling the end case cover to align accordingly. |

kevoh: Service the carburettor. The needle valve and area within should be well cleaned. Alternatively replace the carburettor with a new one. |

Tip 21: Common Problems and Solutions Blocked Exhaust *A blocked exhaust causes the genset to work poorly. You notice the genset struggling to work. Sometimes this is accompanied with a lot of exhaust smoke. This situation continues even despite the normal routine service carried on the genset. *Loose the exhaust and decouple the inlet pipe to the main exhaust frame. *The inlet pipe is so designed to be blocked at one end with a lot of tiny holes drilled just before the blocked ended pipe. *Using a small screwdriver, unblock all the soot filled exit holes on the pipe *Couple back the pipe to the main exhaust frame and you are good to go. |

Tip 20: Common Problems and Solutions Worn armature bearing cover *This inhibits the free rotation of the engine's flywheel. Thus it's advisable to replace or pad up the bearing slot with a metal, plastic or rubber Oring. *The oring helps to prevent the support bearing from dropping far below its designed level. This in turn helps to keep the cooling fans in position and not touching any sides of the armature cover. *Alternatively, you could improvise a sleeve by tapping the bearing circumferential length with a paper tape or similar adhesive material. *Next shorten the length of the main coil slot on the front and end shield metal body by using a small piece of plastic, metal or wood. This is to enable the cooling fans have enough clearance not to touch the end case. |
