Also, check the fuel supply, fuel lines, and fuel filter for any blockages. Replace the controller fuse (F2) and check the wiring to the controller. Replace the auxiliary winding fuse (F1); if it blows again, test the generator components. If the engine is hot, check the air intake, fuel, oil level, and air inlet/outlet. For low oil pressure, attempt startup; if the unit shuts down and displays 'Oil Pres Low Shutdwn', remove the lead from the LOP sender and reset the controller. A successful restart indicates a faulty LOP shutdown sender. Reduce the electrical load if the engine is overloaded. Check connections at the P2 plug a...
