Generator no start
#35

Making headway. I relocated the wiring for the generator relay control box to the blower compartment. Now it can easily be serviced and away from vibrations. New relays came in and I replaced them all. Of course curiosity came over me to find out which one failed. I thought it was the run/solenoid one but it was the larger relay on the right which is the shut down. Since the coil would not close when energized, I can assume it would not allow power to the fuel solenoid relay. I put 14volts to it and it was pulling some current but would not close unless I pushed the contacts. It would release upon disconnection of power. The second large relay had a weak coil but still closed on its own. Smaller relays all had a loud positive click. Circuit breaker was broken from vibration wear but still kept the contacts closed. I replaced all but one which is to arrive today (Small metal cased relay)

The fuel lines coming off the generator to the pump had decent hoses but I wanted to replace them since I was in there. What I discovered was the use of hose barbs which in my experience do not have the proper diameter to seal against the hose without crunching down on the clamp. This is what they had done. You can see in the pic the space between the hose and barb. I found the proper fuel line hose connectors locally and installed them with the new fuel hose.
