How to fix a Wen Portable Generator that won't start?
- DDonald Walker PhDAug 7, 2025
If your Wen Portable Generator engine won't start, there are several potential causes. First, ensure the engine switch is set to ON. Check if the choke is closed. Make sure the generator has enough fuel and that the fuel isn't old or contaminated; if it is, drain the tank and refill with fresh fuel. If using electric start, the battery may be out of power or too cold; try using the recoil start or storing the generator in a warmer place. Also, check the oil level, as the engine won't start if it's too low. Finally, inspect the spark plug for dirt or damage, and clean or replace it as needed. If the carburetor is air locked, remove the nut from the bottom of the carburetor, take off the carburetor to allow it to reset, then replace the carburetor and reinstall the nut.
