To Next PageTo Next PageWhat to do if the Honeywell G0062610 Portable Generator engine cranks but will not start?
If the engine cranks but won't start, first replenish the fuel or turn on the fuel valve if it's out of fuel. Also, clean, re-gap, or replace the spark plug(s) if they are defective. Repair wiring if there is an open #14 wire from the engine control board. Reset valve lash if valve lash is out of adjustment.
Why Honeywell G0062610 engine will not crank?
If the engine won't crank, the possible causes are: a blown fuse (correct the short circuit condition by replacing the 7.5 Amp fuse in the generator control panel), loose, corroded, or defective battery cables (tighten, clean, or replace as necessary), or a dead battery (charge or replace the battery).
Why does the Honeywell G0062610 engine start hard and runs rough?
If the engine starts hard and runs rough, check or replace the air cleaner if it's plugged or damaged. Also, clean, re-gap, or replace the spark plug(s) if they are defective. Confirm the fuel pressure to regulator is 10-12” water column (19-22 mm mercury) for LP, and 3.5 - 7” water column (7 - 13 mm mercury) for natural gas if fuel pressure incorrect. Move selector to correct position if the fuel selector is in wrong position.
What causes the Honeywell G0062610 Portable Generator unit to consume large amounts of oil?
If the unit consumes large amounts of oil, it could be due to the engine being overfilled with oil (adjust oil to the proper level), or a damaged gasket, seal, or hose (check for oil leaks). See “Engine Oil Recommendations” if you are using improper type or viscosity of oil.
