hi,
a while back some idiot* filled my spare fuel tank with 2 stroke petrol

this managed to find it's way into both my bus (nooooooooooooooooooo!) and my suitcase generator

the bus is long since sorted, though i do get the odd cough from time to time :(

but my genny has never properly run since, and no-one seems keen to fix it for me

so can i have some advice on how to fix it?

i guess:
drain petrol

drain oil?

change the spark plug

slight problem is that the starter cord has been pulled that many times that the spring has gone

could i clean the petrol tank with anything?

are there any additives or anything i can put in to help start up for the first time, as i imagine there will be some oily reside inside somewhere

all help would be appreciated, as it will save me a fortue and stop me having to hire gennys all the time!

ta :)





*not me!
