About

I repair neglected power equipment. This channel was started because I found a lack of good content regarding portable generator repair and wanted to document some of the things I came across to help others dealing with similar issues. These videos are detailed and long, but would rather leave the details in to help those who are learning. Do what I do at your own risk. Generator voltages are lethal. Small engines can cause serious injury. Gasoline is explosive and moving parts can cause serious injury. Always use power equipment outside. This is not an instructional video but meant for entertainment. I am not a trained small engine professional or certified in generator repair. No information contained in this video shall create any expressed or implied warranty or guarantee of any particular result. Any injury, damage, or loss that may result is the sole responsibility of the user. If you want give back, use PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/jamescondonYT

Video Description

A local subscriber Bill purchased this DuroStar Diesel DS7200 generator new for his Mom. He fired it up for the first time and saw it did not produce any power. DuroStar covered it under warranty and told him to trash the bad machine. Instead he held onto it in hopes that it could someday be fixed or the engine repurposed. Hopefully today is that day. Bill donated the machine to the channel in hopes that I could get it to do what it has never done, make power! Generator Model: DuroStar DS7200 Engine Model: 10HP 418cc Yanmar Diesel Clone Ryobi Rotor: HM-310772056 Ryobi Stator: HM-310771055 I no longer use Harbor Freight Super Heavy Duty Degreaser in my ultrasonic cleaner. Harbor Freight changed the recipe. The bottle previously stated "NON-CORROSIVE". Now it says "CORROSIVE", "do not user on Aluminum". It now damages most carburetors. Recently I have been using Simple Green PRO HD with good results.
