I wonder if any of you chaps and chapesses help me. I bought a spares or repair Kipor IG 2000 sinewave generator. I only bought it for the internals as I wanted to build a 4hp Honda aircooled motor (Don't ask!!)
It was partially stripped. The circuit board was there and connected but 240 v outlet missing and pull cord snapped. As always with these things my monkey on my shoulder persuaded me to see if it runs.
As always first thing I do is check the carb.....the fly at bowl was full of rust!!!.
This actually got me a little excited( not in that way).Blocked carb....broken pull cord......maybe this is why it was put away.
Cleaned the jets , put a new bowl on checked the oil and involved the recoil.
Making sure I was no where near and circuitry ,spun the crank with a drill and it ran perfectly. Not only did it run the green light was lit up on the panel. As the 240v plug attachment was missing and I have no 110v tools I couldn't tell if there was any out put.
My question is....if the green light is lit does that mean everything could be ok?
TIA
