  If the engine of your Generac Power Systems Portable Generator cranks but doesn't start, several factors could be the cause. First, ensure you have enough fuel and that the fuel shutoff valve is open. Also, verify that the fuel selector is in the correct position. Other potential issues include high fuel pressure (check and adjust if needed), faulty spark plugs (clean, inspect the gap, and replace if necessary), or valve clearance being out of adjustment (reset the valve clearance). If those steps don't resolve the issue, it might be a faulty fuel solenoid, which requires contacting an authorized independent service dealer.

  If your Generac Power Systems Portable Generator engine won't crank, start by checking the 7.5A fuse in the control panel for a blown fuse and replace it if necessary, addressing any short circuit conditions. If the fuse continues to blow, contact an authorized independent service dealer. Also, examine the battery cables for looseness, corrosion, or faults; tighten, clean, or replace them as needed. Finally, ensure the battery is charged; if it's discharged, charge or replace it.

Why does my Generac Power Systems G0072190 start hard and run rough?

  If your Generac Power Systems Portable Generator starts hard and runs rough, begin by inspecting and cleaning the air cleaner. Also, check the spark plugs—clean them, inspect the spark plug gap, and replace if needed. Make sure the fuel selector is in the correct position. Verify the fuel pressure to the regulator: it should be 2.49–2.99 kPa (10–12 in water column) for LP and 0.87–1.74 kPa (3.5–7.0 in water column) for NG. If the issue persists, adjust the valve clearance. For internal engine issues, contact an authorized independent service dealer.
