Most generators these days have a low oil shut off sensor and will not run if oil is too low. Add oil, or bypass the sensor to check if that is the problem.

@@bassetofl Locate a yellow line wire from the low oil sensor, then depending on your generator brand, you may find a green wire connector.

Thank you i took the generator ALL apart because i suspected that the governor gear was broken the generator ran before i took it apart just ran WIDE OPEN would not regulate. While i was taking it apart i made the mistake of not draining the oil and when i tipped it a certain way oil leaked all over basically probably all internal parts stator, rotor ect.. now do you think this would ruin them internal parts hindering it not to start. Or maybe the valves might not be in the correct position that could cause it not to start also right. And thank you fir taking the time out of your day to help out s complete stranger. You are a blessing to me.

Now, battery is charged, but no power shows on the charge indicator light and no power to the starter. It does not fire when pulling the recoil either. Fuel is on, tank is full, On/Off switch is on.

Generator refuses to start I have a 3-year-old ipower 12000e generator with 10 hours on it. Basically it's a Honda clone from China. While using it it suddenly stopped running. I replaced the carburetor and a new fuel solenoid. I disconnected the low oil sensor. I changed the oil. I am getting good fuel flow. I was getting a spark with the old spark plug but I changed to a new spark plug and there is no spark with that plug. I am thinking about buying a new coil these parts are fairly inexpensive.

The biggest problems with generators not starting is the use of fuel with ethanol in it (standard US gas station fuel). Always use non ethanol fuel (about $1/gal more), or buy the stuff in the cans at the hardware stores. Fuel with ethanol can start gelling up filters, screens and carburetors within months. This is the same problem you will have with any engine not regularly used such as chainsaws, snow blowers, weed whackers, etc. Do yourself a big favor and use non-ethanol fuel, it could save you in a bind.

I can start my generator but not conventionally at all. Backing up a sec. I do not know more than the most basic things relating to small engines or gas engines at all really. But I know big diesels so I'm capable. Lol. I cleaned the carb. No start. Fresh fuel same. Disassembled the carb. Cleaned the needle float. Everything. Still can't start it. Shot of ether it fires right up. But only till the ether is burnt off. Squirt gas directly into the carb and it will fire but still won't draw fuel to keep running. If I drop the drain screw on the bowl fuel dumps out. So if it can get fuel into the carb why won't it draw up the needle and run on its own? Please if you have any ideas. I am about ready to leave it on my tailgate and go 4x4 ING for a while. More info. When I got it I broke the vacuum line fitting off the side unloaded it. But I used it no problem for 2 years intermittently. It sat for a year in my storage trailer and since then I have managed to get it running a few times only and only briefly. Maybe 5 min once at the most. Thank you

Hi, I have the CMXGGAS030731 Never really used it, Tried to started up nothing, but when I use stater fluid it acts like it wants to starts then dies, My friend said that I may have a bad carb.

Use or predator 9000 almost daily. Was turned off because of a little white smoke near choke area after sounding like it was going to cut off on its own. Now I can’t get it to start. It’s trying but it’s a no go. Can’t figure it out.
