    Leave the plug out when you just want rpms to test generation.

    Hey Mustie, do you know if one of these engines could be used as a replacement engine on a locke mower?

    Mustie1, I first came across you in various VW videos … very engaging, but a bit over my skill level. This video, however, is perfect and I want to get a similar generator running. Thanks for showing so much of the details as it will be invaluable as I attempt my project.

    My neighbor was getting rid of his Coleman 1997 2250Watt generator. FREE! I knew I would get it working and I did. It was the brass float in carb. It had two cracks in it and filling with gas. Rebuilt carb and new float, runs like new again, won't tell him that! LOL. Can't find the owners manual on line though. Also put a new pull cord on too.

    So awesomethat you had one same as the one I was gifted. Mine leaked gas from the carb area. Thinking the float has some issue and it probably needs some good can cleaning (what was that cleaning soluction by the way?). Thanks a bunch for the close ups and step by step….Peace

    Looks like my sears generator except my take is attached to the bottom of the carb

    I got one of these green things, not the same but very similar. I laughed when you mention early in it doesnt have a kill switch as if it were a snake it would've bit you. LOL. Anyway got mine started tonight for good measure…That damn choke. I gotta put it in the middle to get it to go and any other extreme will just tucker me out pulling on the starter . Apparently these were around the early 90s it was my dads… so may be time to upgrade just for fault tolerance.

    I just picked up 2 of these. 1 looks like this one and the other a little different like an oval air cleaner
