Kipor Generator Won't Run

Generator Model: Kipor KGE 1000Ti
I no longer use Harbor Freight Super Heavy Duty Degreaser in my ultrasonic cleaner. Harbor Freight changed the recipe. The bottle previously stated "NON-CORROSIVE". Now it says "CORROSIVE", "do not user on Aluminum". It now damages most carburetors. Recently I have been using Simple Green PRO HD with good results.

Thank you so much James. I knew you would be able to bring my generator back from the dead. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

I was the repair agent for Kipor in Cairns Australia. Sometimes they take forever to start after a carb service. Biggest fault they had was being overloaded and blowing inverter boards. Most were not worth repairing. Used properly they are a great generator.

The drain line on the bottom of the carburetor. If you rotate it upside down. Then open the drain screw. You can see the fuel level of the float bowl. You can use this trick while the engine is running.

Watching your videos are therapeutic for me for some reason... Good on you getting that little guy running again.. One thing to mention, I've noticed in my years that the fan you have on that space heater could introduce a lot of THD in to the system when measuring.. Was still less than 3%, but sometimes those fans are "noisy."

Excellent job at identifying the problem and resolving it, well done. Nice quiet little machine🧐🇦🇺
-
the shortest hose you could buy, 5 feet......now you have 4 feet 10 inches left over! Thank you James

For a 10 year old generator that looks pristine.
-
Real detective going on this one. I could have worked on that for a month, and likely it would never have worked right. Learn something from almost every single video. 👍

Am learning more and more about these small engines. Your systematic evaluation and "treatments" of the problems becomes more and more valuable. I have a 5K watt generator that needs an overhaul and I am ALMOST ready to tackle the beast!1 LOL. Maybe I need to watch just a FEW more of your excellent videos. MANY THANKS!!

Been waiting to see you learn to rebuild the stator. Knock out old windings, put in new paper, make new windings. Lol. I watch a little Chinese girl on youtube does motors, pumps, generators. My wife hates when I watch it. I find it interesting as hell. She does it without saying a word. She adds some text. Don't speak Chinese anyways. Lol.
