I found one of these Generac 4800 watt generators for sale used and had Miguel at MGM install it for me. Unfortunately it has a fuel delivery issue, which Miguel says is most likely the fuel solenoid not opening correctly, a very common problem apparently, and the part for this model is rather expensive and hard to find. His suggested remedy would be to disable the spring-back mechanism inside the solenoid by hitting it precisely, inside, with a hammer and nail, so the aperture would stay open. Well, i've tried many times, and this spring just won't quit! Anybody else have this issue before? Any suggestions appreciated, as always :)
Cheers
