Honda 2008 Wacker G5.6 A Portable Generator Questions & Answers
What caused gas to leak into oil?
The float needle in the Carburetor is not holding a good seal. Gas tank is higher then the carb so it keeps filling the bowl till it runs into the cylinder and around the piston rings down to the oil.Might remove the bowl and pull the pin and drop the float and needle . check the rubber tip to see if it is still some what softer then you finger nail. Take some fine steel wool balled up on the end of a small jeweler ***** driver and shove it up inside the hole the needle came out of and spin it with the thought of polishing the brass face that the needle meets to. If the needle tip is to hard it might not seal up good. you might want to put a shut off valve in the fuel line before the carb, this is what I did and every time I am done with mine I shut off the fuel and let it run out till it dies.
Honda gas compressor ec2510e runs great but when reaches 120psi the gas engine idels and the control lever keeps moving back and forth by itself
Your compressor is made by Hitachi. The pilot valve is what controls the engine and the pressure. Most likely the pilot is set to idle engine at 125 psi. The pilot valve can be adjusted higher or lower depending on needs but not higher than say 140. As the pressure drops to about 80 psi the pilot will cut in the engine to refill the tank. Pilot and throttle controls are finicky and require constant tinkering and or parts replacement. Your compressor needs the pilot to control pressure however does not need the throttle control. You can set the engine on constant speed. Less trouble but uses little more gas. Just remove the throttle control from the pilot and plug the hole. If the bad part is the pilot itself you will need to replace it. The new pilot will be adjusted to about 125 psi. Good luck with your repair
Oil Level Sensor Issues
Not worth the work. Just leave it disconnected and check oil twice daily under hard working conditions. Change the oil every 100 hrs of hard use or when it looks black and dirty.
Hose builds pressure and then will not spray
Hi
Look at all associated couplings on the delivery side of the receiver to ensure that air passing through
every joint/coupling and that the hose has not got collapsed walls that are compounded by air pressure.
A good tester to make up is to get 2 hose joiner ends, fit to an either a galv.or brass nipple, join together and test that there is a good flow of air from all points of delivery
Hope this helps
Cheers

My air compressor starts right
It sounds like the compressor is reaching the max psi it can hold. At this point can you use a air tool or blower? The reason it comes back on is to keep the psi at running level. It replentishes the lost or used air.
Good luck!

Engine oil
ENGINE Oil ??? what about it .. Its an oily substance that is designed to lubricate the engine while running....
