Second One Of These In Three Years And Its Done
By Cody L

Review Posted 10/30/2023
First one I bought had an engine issue. I sold it and got a second one. (The first one burnt up not long after I sold it) First few runs and the second one was leaking coolant on the belt and slinging it onto everything inside. Got a replacement part and fixed the coolant leak. Worked great for a year and a half up until this week when “AC Sens Loss” shutdown after startup attempt.
Engines still great. Generator end, not so much. Very disappointed. Again.1800 odd hours on it, babied and serviced routinely.
