What to do if my Yamaha Portable Generator won't start?
If your Yamaha Portable Generator won't start, there are several possible causes. First, ensure that fuel is being supplied to the combustion chamber by turning the fuel cock lever to the 'ON' position. Check the fuel line and carburetor for clogs, cleaning them if necessary. Also, verify that the engine oil level is sufficient, adding oil if it is low. Make sure the engine switch is in the 'ON' position. If the spark plug is dirty or wet, clean or dry it. If none of these steps work, there may be a faulty ignition system and you should consult a Yamaha dealer.
