I run our camp on one of the Predator genny's. 2000W start up with max payload of 1600W. I use it to run the whole camp. It's been a solid running machine for the last few years up until this past early teal season. Surged and sputtered, lights were dimming so I borrowed a genny from my neighbors camp for the rest of the week. I had no idea how simple the fix was and you tubed it when I got back home.
Disconnect the fuel line and INSIDE the metal fuel feed side of the carb is this tiny inline filter. I was amazed the genny still ran! Carefully pulled it, Cleaned it out, cleaned the spark for routine maintenance and fired the old girl up. She ran like a top and powered 2 small fridges, helps us refreeze bottles for ice, all our lighting (LED bulbs) and 110w water heater, coffee pot, etc. We adjust load demand as necessary to keep from tripping her out but burning 3 gallons of fuel in 24 hours vs. 6 gallons / night is a huge benefit.
Doing an oil change today on this little juggernaut reminded me to let y'all know what might be a problem with these little generators.

Listen to your elders. Not because they are always right but because they have more experiences of being wrong.
