Honda generator eu2000i will only run choked. I had the carb cleaned, plug cleaned, replaced the fuel and I cleaned the spark arrestor. It purrs with the choke open and the ecco throttle works when it is choked. When it is not choked it is starving for fuel runs very rough and the ecco throttle does not work. Also while it is running with choke under load and I try to turn the choke off it shuts down. Thanks for any help, Mike

it is not any kind of car or truck,so moved you to portable elect gas generators.
does it burn gas/petrol or LPG?
with engine stalled, oil lamp on is 100% normal
but never at the time of stall (or just before)
the oil pump runs off the crankshaft is why.
new spark plug is cure. i bet.
or use chock longer.
carb, gasoline , petrol.
if spark tip is in raw fuel , turn off chock and crank it dry.
the gen has many buttons switches make sure all are set correct for sure on./off .
is it elect starter or hand cord cranked or both?

the carburetor needs adjusted or taken apart and cleaned most likely. also the muffler spark arrestor may be plugged

have you ne sparkplgs, and have yo checked the tap that deliveres petrol to motor'

your carb is blocked and you will have to clean it and also check the filters for blockages

if your question is that my Honda generator wont idle up when I connect a load (tool) and it stalls then . first see if unit will run on constant setting (switch on front) if nothing or still barely runs or stalls , then your problem is carb or fuel filter (inside tank) one or both is most likely dirty and needs replaced/cleaned

The running on choke is caused by a fuel restriction. Check the fuel flow from the tank to the carburetor.Change the fuel filter if it has one. If its good, then the restriction is in the carburetor. The generator is shutting down due to the low rpm coming from the engine. A carburetor rebuild may need to be done.

check air filter and spark plug if good carb adjustment is needed or carb may be loose. could be bad fuel water in gas will cause this

Also not uncommon to see a plugged idle circuit, cant remember how difficult it was to get to, but it's the smallest orifice in the carb, plugs the easiest, and these are real touchy on fuel, keep it fresh!

Fuel starvation - 'lean fuel' condition
Basic things to check:
1) spark plug
2) spark arrestor in muffler
3) fuel lines and tank filter
4) turn adjustment needles out (counterclockwise) 1/4 to 1/2 turn
Chain Saws:
5) check impulse tube and intake boot for cracks or leaks
*if all of the above are OK and/or do not improve performance then:
Remove Carburetor
6) replace gaskets/diaphragms
a) use a spray carb cleaner to clean jets, holes, and body of carb
b) fuel pump diaphragm goes against the carb body,
then the gasket towards the outside
c) metering gasket goes against the carb body,
and the diaphragm goes towards the outside
