I have 17K propane powered Generac Guardian and every time I move the control switch from the off position to the auto position the 7.5 amp fuse blows.

Then there is a short in the wiring somewhere, to find it will take a lot of close examination of the wiring.

I have a 20kw generac standby generator, where the starter tries to engage after the generator starts up and is running. Only has 316 running hours. Installed new starter in 2016.

The starter pinion drive gear is sticking.... its the smaller gear on the shaft that moves up and down to engage the flywheel gear and start the motor. Carefully put a LITTLE hi temp grease on the shift splines (curved ones) and see how much that helps. The gear is not staying "retracted"..if this doesn't help.. the spring that pushes the gear back down may not be strong enough...(you could always fix both)

Here is support product lookup. Requires more specific numbers about your gp6500. Shuts down automatically from oil shortage. Above 40°F, use SAE 30. Below 40°F and down to 10°F, use 10W-30. Below 10°F, use synthetic 5W-30. Oil should be changed after the first 8 hours of operation and every 200 hours of run time thereafter.

I have a 17k generac generator when it auto comes on the motor runs rough but when manually turned on it will run fine.

Could be the load you have on it is to much for when it does it it self .when you do it do you turn power off then start it and then putt the power back on .then it would run easy every time .could be your back up battery for it is to small .is it on a transfer switch like it should be when it starts it self .
