Avast:


Morning
Please can you suggest a good generator to buy, just for powering blender @1000W, a washing machine, a ceiling fan, bread toaster, laptop and bulbs.

Considering Fuel consumption level

Thanks

3.5kva is good..

Go for Firman sumec

nwaozzugwor:


Tell your technician to ring the engine... but ask him to check the engine block first ...if damaged, no need for ringing..

if engine block is wounded then buy a new half engine..

but while ringing... insist on sumec piston and rings for durability..

Hello, I'm about to go for half engine for my generator, it's 2.5KVA is there any particular model I should insist on ?

bro my generator recently doing hard start. I will need to first bend the generator download the carburetor side for the fuel to Flow for a minute. before it will start. from all indication it's the curbrator I have lose the screw underneath it to leak out the fuel. with no improvement.

I was to service the curbrator. I use to service my I pass my neighbor curbrator way back. I want to know the spinner I need do it so that I can buy them.

is it 8,9 and 10 ? both ring and soccet spinner?

Please I need honest opinions. I was advised by the sales guys in a generator shop to buy Maxmech generator, 3KVA for 88k. They assured me it is durable, and according to them, it is the best in terms of fuel economy.

I just have 1fridge, 1 flat screen TV(32in), 2 ceiling fans, 1 laptop and some energy bulbs in my house.

Please guys most importantly, is the Maxmech generator a reliable one? and is it fuel efficient as they claimed? I intend getting it by Monday.

Thanks.

Don't trust anything that comes out of any sales personnel

Can a 2.5kVA power a pumping machine, fridge and TV few bulbs light?
The generator in question is a Maxi B20M

[quote author=kelvobas post=92829782]

I bought mine (constant elepaz key starter ) in benin city for 103,000. But i do not know if it will power 1hp pumping maching[/quote

Please which model did you buy?

Good evening able engineer. Thank you for the good work you have been doing here.

Myriend told me how a gen engineer worked on his small tiger gen so he can get the best out of the gen
He said the engineer changed the capacitor that came with it to much higher capacitor. So now the gen works without stress, and thereby saves fuel, and the voltage it produces is high enough/bright to carry all his basic appliances.

I want to ask if this technique is true. And wat capacitance of a capacitor (the uf and volatge) will you recommend to upgrade a small tiger gen so that the gen can work with ease and save fuel and still carry the required load?
Thank you sir.

Well, I don't like condemning others...All products are good but it all depends on your maintenance skills..

Always change good oil and then you are good to go

The issue of upgrading small tiger engine is either here or there..

The call for capacitor is just to help the coil achieve it's maximum purpose .

The best capacitor in the market is the white one ..don't opt for the black or aluminum one

Always go for 24uf for small I pass my neighbor (price is 500 naira).

Servicing of cabulator needs expertise but if you are sure.then go on..

From your description, the problem of your engine is just the cabulator..

But I will advise you to get a technician or buy a new one...is not costly

Hello The Engineer and everyone,

Please I just bought my Gen, but I don't know how frequent I should be changing my engine oil.

I have bought the Gen now , more than 1 month.
This morning when I checked the engine oil level, it's still full like the first time I bought it

Change Oil Every 30days

Hello, please help me out.

My gen is refusing to stay on when it starts. starting it is a struggle, i have cleaned the plug, there is oil in the gen but it still refuses to stay on after starting. its a fairly new firman gen about 4 months so i dont expect all these stress. what other reasons can there be for the gen not starting??
the sound it is giving is like that of the choke being turned off and it just goes off less than 1 minute after starting

it's the curbrator or piston valves. if curbrator be its a product of bad fuel. service the curbrator. good luck.

you don't need to clean it often. plug does get spoiled easily. it's can last 1 to 2 years.

Can a 1.8kva power a pumping machine?

please help i did general servicing today on my genetator. I remove the fuel tank clear all the dirt i side tank. I wash all the body with fuel and the top of the curbrator was dirty so I lose the curbrator in the process of losing it I saw this spring on the ground and I really don't know where it fall from.

after I finish clearing the curbrator I put everything back on the generator. now when I start the generator I start and off within 3 to 5 minutes. I changed the plug the same thing it off like something that is strongly yo get fuel.

I plan on buying a new curbrator now. how much is carburator? and where does this spring come out from?

Remove the fuel tank and snap pictures the top of the carburetor maybe is from the carburetor

Hello!!!
Please I want to know if 2.5KVA rating generator can power (say 2 deep freezers) and which brand would be recommended.... Thanks

Wisin:

it's from the curbrator. the generator spring. after I went to check another generator I den figured out from where the spring cut from.but the technician I met there told me that is not why the generator is getting off after on for 3-5 minutes. he told me even if they remove that spring it should work.

anyway my first attempt is i bought the governor spring which came with another governor N200.

I put it but it's was still the same problem. I was also suspecting the paper pad that was on the curbrator which got partially teared and was not lapping properly against the air filter rubber.

I then bought new caburator N1200 and new curbrator rods N200 for the two rods. when I start it, it work properly.


I then buy N200 for new ON/OFF switch. I changed oil also.

when I insert everything it work fine now. but the curbrator was firing too high.

I remove that spring and the generator see still work. the spring isn't be doing as nothing really.
