Voltage regulator, carbon buildup in the cylinders, the carburetor may need overhauling, engine governor may have a stretched spring, Spark plug may need replacing, Timing may be off, air filter may need changing, and lastly, your load may exceed the ability of the generator.Checking this list will uncover the loss of power

If you replaced T30 ELECTRIC MOTOR WITH A GAS ENGINE WOULD IT BE RUNNING THE RIGHT DIRECTION

This appears to be relating to an Ingersol Rand Air Compressor rather than anything in the Honda Garden category? Make Model (What is is) in all questions please.

According to my research is has a 20HP 3-PHASE ELECTRIC MOTOR. There are some other tihings to consider. When you are running this Honda gas engine, you are filling your workshop with deadly carbon monoxide gas.

Your Honda GX-390 is only 11.7 hp (8.7 kW) @ 3,600 rpm, not 20hp so it is doomed to failure. Also, how are you going to get it to cycle on when the tank needs it.

Take your existing electric motor and get it repaired or rewound. Much cheaper option for a safe working environment and doing the job it is meant to.

U How do you fix a Honda generator 1000i engine runs but no power at 120 out let.

if the motor engine is working and no power output then you need to check is there any power out from the generator motor directly (not in the power out put box I hope you already checked in there) generator motor coils could have busted due to over loads. so even the engine is rotating the generator it can't produce any volts.

I installed a new GX 390 Honda engine in a Toro 413 TX machine. Motor starts, idles and full throttle fine, but when hydraulics,i.e. drive is engaged, motor dies.

you have a dingo, ugh
I would suspect a bad pump or wheel motor if the rpms are set correctly and no safety switches are causing it to die...

Gas is leaking out of my brand new Honda GX 390 generator. all hoses are connected. appears to be coming out of near the manifold or carb somewhere.

It sounds like the needle in the needle and seat (float bowel) is stuck in an open position. Can you remove the float bowel?

Honda gx 390 only starts when it feels like it

Sometimes you have to lower the air pressure in the tank to allow it to run. The back pressure from the compressed air in the compressor head overcomes the pressure created in the engine at the slow RPMs you are able to pull while attempting to crank it.
