In Part 2, I’m back in the field chasing down a rough-running Generac generator while checking over a newer unit to make sure it’s 100%.

This Generac generator troubleshooting covers rough running, AVR issues, valve adjustment, gas pressure checks, spark plug gaps, and compression testing. 00:00 ice cream to generator 00:48 Looking at Claytons dads c generator 02:10 Checking Gas pressure 04:11 checking spark plugs 08:00 wrong spark plugs? 10:00 checking the book for ideas 10:40 compression test 12:10 valve adjustment checks 17:45 compression recheck 19:00 what’s the book say? 19:55 new battery and other checks 21:10 voltage regulator problems 24:00 speed controller servo testing 27:30 in-laws generator checks 29:35 how to shutdown a generator before checking the oil #Generac #GeneracGenerator #GeneratorRepair #GeneratorMaintenance #Troubleshooting #SmallEngineRepair #HVACTech #FieldService #NotOnCall — Purchase your tools at https://www.trutechtools.com/home?aff=13 and use the offer code SURVIVAL to save 6% on your total purchase (exclusions may apply) — — TOOLS I USE — FULL TOOL LIST ON THIS PAGE - https://kit.co/hvacrsurvival 💥 Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/ref=as_li_ss_t...
