  If your DuroStar Portable Generator's engine won't start, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the engine switch is set to “RUN” and the fuel valve is turned to “ON”. Check that the choke is closed. Also, verify that you have enough fuel and that it's not old or contaminated; if it is, change the fuel. Inspect the spark plug to see if it's dirty (clean it) or broken (replace it). Make sure the generator is on a level surface, and check the oil level, adding or changing the oil if necessary.

  If your DuroStar Portable Generator's engine won't start, several issues could be the cause. First, ensure the engine switch is set to “RUN” and the fuel valve is in the “OPEN” position. Check that the choke is closed and that the generator has an adequate supply of fresh fuel. A dirty or broken spark plug can also prevent starting, so clean or replace it as needed. Also make sure that the generator is on a level surface and the oil level is sufficient. Add or change the oil if it's low.

  If your DuroStar Portable Generator's engine runs but produces no electrical output, the circuit breaker might be “OFF”. Turn it “ON”. A bad wiring connection could also be the problem; in this case, replace the extension cord(s). Also, the device connected to the generator could be malfunctioning, so disconnect it.
