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

Someone threw away this 5000 watt Kubota generator. I know nothing about the history of this generator or why it was trashed. Most of the wires are disconnected and the Kubota engine is seized. Its not looking good for this machine. Lets see if I can free the engine and fire it up. Will it run and make power? Not sure, but lets find out. Generator Model: Kubota A5000-3-120-Y Carburetor Part Number: 12601-44012 I use Harbor Freight Super Heavy Duty Degreaser in my ultrasonic cleaner.
