Why won't my Hyundai DHY6000SE/LR Portable Generator diesel engine start?

If your Hyundai Portable Generator's diesel engine won't start, start by checking the fuel level and refilling if it's low. Ensure the fuel tap is in the 'ON' position. Also, verify the engine oil level, ensuring it reaches the upper level. If these steps don't work, the battery may be flat and needs charging or replacing. The starter motor might be turning too slowly, so inspect the battery charge and connections. Other potential issues include a fuel injection pump not delivering enough fuel (requires testing), the governor lever not being in the START position, or a carbon-filled injector (needs cleaning).
