atvaholic Posted January 13, 2012 Report Posted January 13, 2012 I found a pretty good deal on a used one, but know very little about them.. I know its not a Honda...but is it decent?
tschirk Posted January 13, 2012 Report Posted January 13, 2012 Absolute total junk. I have one. well cared for - premium gas, sea foam stabilizer, fresh plugs. Failed to start when I needed it last winter.'Took it to Hyundai repair centre, they finally got it started. Crappy carb system, very difficult to start. Later starter rope broke. I lost WalMart receipt so no warranty coverage. I had to mod air breather with tube to spray ether into carbs to start. Honda & Yamaha aren't cheap but definitely worth the premium when you need power.

Can I ask if its a newer or older one? What model is it?
vance Posted January 13, 2012 Report Posted January 13, 2012 I have a yamaha and a champion generator,altho the yammy was expensive it ALWAYS start regardless of weather.The champion I would like to bury as it almost NEVER starts unless the weather is 20+ and a large can of quick start is a must. vance
