How to check the valve lash on honda eu3000is generator
You have to pull the rear (muffler end) cover, rear muffler protector (the metal vent), the rear handle, the lower end plate, and the fiber muffler protector so you have access to the head cover. Remove the head cover, disconnecting the breather tube as you do it.
Turn the engine (using pull handle) to top dead center compression (both valves fully closed). Use feeler gauge to check the valve clearance between the rocker arm and the valve stem.
Intake should be .15mm +/- .02mm (.006in +/- .001)
Exhaust should be .20mm +/- .02mm (.008in +/- .001)
Adjust as needed by loosening the rocker arm pivot locking nut and adjusting the rocker arm pivot. Tighten the locking nut once set.
Put it all back together. :)
Do you know how to seperate /remove the generator
you need a tool that is like a rod which is threaded on one end and has a flat head on the other.they come in different length it goes through the rotor shaft and screwed into engine shaft using a screwdriver then you have to tap the end of rotor shaft with a desired thread pitch and use a bolt to drive into rod .
I have a Honda 7000
If the generator is an auto stop/start type for standby use, it would seem those solenoids are the reason why fuel isn't getting through. It would be a fairly sensible method of stopping the engine remotely.
An auto start/stop generator would need a battery for starting purposes, a battery that would presumably also provide current to energise those solenoids and allow fuel to flow.
I suggest you refer to the instruction manual in the first instance...
Stops generating and just idles
Check if there any alarm on monitor by pressing button several times. It has code like E-number. Replace spark plug, fuel filter. Clean carburator, spark arrester. Check wiring of thermosensor.
Honda EM5000SX generator - will not idle up when a load is placed on. Will produce power but will not idle up.
from your description and what you do , the problem is in the auto control unit
it will be in the system to reduce the rpm to idle when there is no load ( auto mains on off controller switching between genset and mains supply)
by turning the auto operation off you are committing the gen set to full rpms regardless of the power requirement
you have the option of having it fixed at an gen set repair shop or leaving it off and starting the genset only when you have a mains power outage
check with an electrician to ensure that it is possible to run it that way as if the mains power unit is not correct , when you start it and you still have mains power , it will destroy the gen set
How do I fix a 2006 Honda outboard motor with no spark at the plugs?
Hi there. The tips are generic and may or may not apply! 1)Does it have points with capacitor? It can be burnt or dirty.2) Check the cable feeding the sparkplug loose or cracked? 3) Remove the wires to your kill switch at the engine and try to start if it starts then with your ohm meter check switch working and wires for breaks or short circuits
How do i seperate honda gx 160 engine from generator
Dear Sir/Madam,
To dismantle the Alternator:
End Plate and Windings:
1. Remove the End cover and note (or better take a picture) of the wiring layout.
2. Undo the engine mounts from the frame and raise the alternator with a block of wood so the mounting studs are free.
3. Undo all wiring and remove the brushes.
4. Undo the 4 outer bolts holding the alternator together.
5. Using a second piece of wood and a hammer, hit the inside of the outer casing where the 4 bolts were attached. Hit opposites (a bit like on a car fitting a car tyre) until the end casing comes free. DO NOT SPRAY OIL DURING THIS PROCESS AS MAY HARM THE ALTERNATOR WHEN NEXT FIRED UP. The windings should also drop off during this process, slide off and place carefully in a safe place.
To Remove the Rotor:
Only do this if you require the Rotor off the Generator! Due to the design the rotor gets tightened onto the crankshaft with the turning of the engine, so they can get stuck pretty solid! There are a few ways to remove the Rotor (Armature). Below we have found a video that will assist you:
