My ust gg2300 gas generator installed new carb runs 3to 4 minutes then dies

Maybe when the ignition coil heats up it will not produce any spark to the spark plug. Run the engine until it stalls and remove the spark plug and put the plug wire back on and ground the plug to the engine. See if you get spark at the electrode of the spark plug when you have some one pull the starter rope with the switch on the run position.

Compression lockup

Remove spark plug. Pull rope several times to blow out cylinder. Spray WD 40 in spark plug hole. Pull rope several times. ensure compression is present. Replace spark plug with new one. Spray starting fluid in cylinder before replacing spark plug. Ensure plug wires snaps on tight. Check oil level, fill with 30w oil if required. All mowers have a low oil start cutoff. Clean or replace air filter.

Doesn't start has spark @ plug fuel @

try starting meaning pull the rope 6 times and then check the spark plug if its wet clean it or try a new plug, if its dry your not getting fuel in the cylinder which means carb problems. if you have a seringe or something to put some gas into the spark plug hole then install spark plug and try it. if it runs for a couple of seconds then you need to focus on the carb. only put a small amount of fuel in the plug hole if you try it otherwise youll be pulling on the rope for awhile before it will start. hope this helps.

Saw feels like it,s out of timing, pull rope hard to pull with plug in.. pulls easy plug out maybe trying to fire to fast

Check the air cleaner for plugging. Remove the spark plug, open the throttle with the choke off, turn the machine upside down and pull it through smartly several times until the excess fuel is expelled. Dry the spark plug interior insulator and test for spark--it should be blue and snappy (plug gapped 0.020"). If weak looking, try a new plug first, and if still weak, remove the left engine case to expose the flywheel and ignition module. Turn the flywheel magnets under the module poles, insert a thin business card into the gaps, loosen the module screws to allow the module to contact the magnets. Tighten the screws and turn the flywheel somewhat to release the card. Turn the flywheel one full turn to make sure the module gap doesn't close up at any point. Reassemble and test again for spark. If now good, try for engine start. Hope this helps!

Haven't ran my generator since jan. 07'. Tried to start it and no go???

Can be several things. More than likely stale gas. Take the gas line off of the carb. or the tank. Let all of the gas pour out. Remove the spark plug. Pull the rope over and over until it stops blowing gas out of the plug hole. Replace the hose and fill up with new gas. Is the spark plug wet from gas? You can dry it out with a tourch or a blow dryer. Then plug it back to the wire and let it sit on the head of the motor, so it is getting ground. Pull the rope and see if it sparks. If it does the put plug back in and start it up?????

Petrol Engine will not start. The saw is a Stilh and I have not usaed it for 18 months

Ok first off drain all fuel out of the saw replace the fuel tank filter, then clean out the air cleaner, pull the spark plug out and with some and paper sand the spark plug so that it's clean. NEXT mix some new gas mix and add to the tank try putting the choke on full and pull rope about a dozen times then put choke in partial open and try starting. If it does not start pull spark plug and pull starter rope and see if you have spark if you do add a capfull of gas mix into the spark plug hole and tighten the spark plug down and try pull starting if it fires off and dies then you have a cracked fuel line and need to replace the fuel line. When you have the plug out spray a small amount of WD 40 into the sparkplug hole and pull the rope a few times to get rings lubracated then add the gas. If it won't start post here and I will give you more directions to test for starting again. HOPE THIS HELPS AND THANKS FOR USING FIX-YA.
